Wow! We maybe have a split personality disorder going on in my state, but in all honesty - either one of those two is okay with me. At least we all - even the Ds - still hate Hillary.

On the Ohio thing; I'm right there with you, lbj. I thought Trump had it too.

Razor thin in MO but it looks like Trump won.

Trump 334,228

Cruz 330,891

I feel ashamed to be an Ohioan right now.

I know how you feel....try being a Californian.

Heard an interesting comment tonight that Bernie supporters won't vote for Hillary, and they may vote for trump being he is a dc outsider...

Does that qualify for an automatic recount in MO?

I've heard many of them say it for months.

It's now the 274th day of Trump's failed bid for the presidency. And, he's now topped out in terms of support, too. What? . . . No? . . . . The earpieces are a ringin'.

Interesting indeed, now the fox speak is still the brokered convention line.

Or that 60% of the non trump voters wouldn't support him if he wins, seriously would half the r base stay home and prepare for four to eight years of Hillary aka Obama part deux, I don't see it happening

MO still not settled

99% in

Trump 375,473 // Cruz 373,006

looks like they each will get at least 11 delegates, and another 30 TBD.

A few counties aren't 100% in yet. Jackson Cty and St Louis Cty aren't quite 100% in.

A CNN prediction model says Trump is 98% to win but it is real close.

Winner in MO gets 15 bonus delegates too no split.

Listening to Kasich makes me wonder if he isn't slightly unbalanced. He seems to have a vision that he will be president. He certainly has made it clear he doesn't care if it gets handed to him by the establishment.

I think he's angling for a trade in a possible brokered convention, there's no way he can win but he can make a case for some deal for his delegates if it's enough to push either trump or Cruz over 1237.

The best he could hope for is to have the GOP nomination handed to him via back room dealing. Unfortunately for him and the GOP, that deal would destroy what's left of the GOP and would guaranteed Kasich had zero chance of winning the White House.

This BS that FOX and others are shoveling about a brokered or contested convention is just that. You think Trump will damage the GOP if he gets close to 1237 delegates? Have the GOP elites ignore the very real anger in the voting public right now, and they'll seal the fate of the party irrespective of Trump. Tread carefully morons, or the throat you cut might be your own.

The last 2 paragraphs of this article may hold the key to why the Rep establishment hates Trump so much.

"Whit Ayres, Rubio’s pollster, spent the past several years compiling data and published a book showing that Republicans could not afford to alienate minority voters, especially Hispanics, if they ever hope to retake the White House. Watching Rubio’s concession speech on Tuesday night, Ayres was despondent.

“After 2012,” he said, “you thought we’d learned our lesson.”"

****************
so the establishment has been freaking out as Trump throws out BLM protesters from his rallies, and talks about sending 12 million illegals out of the country. Trump is 100% out of sync with the Rep establishment play book (as they see it).

Let's hope the big turn outs for the primaries are a sign that enough anti-
establishment voters are pumped up.

He has a book and it was how Marco played his theory and lost, what else could he say

And that man is our President. My immediate reaction was to burst out laughing, and then I wanted to weep.

Yeah. Reminds me of that great 2012 bumper sticker:

"If you voted for Obama in 2008 to prove you weren't a racist,
Vote against him in 2012 to prove you aren't a moron."

Sadly, either too many didn't see it or are quite comfortable being morons.

My first reaction on seeing that quote was not printable and would likely have raised the boss's ire for blue language with not much else. My second reaction was dismay that tar and feather and running politicians out of town on a rail has gone out of style. I would have gladly personally paid for a bitch pot, the tar, the propane to boil it, and a truckload of down pillows for the second layer. Sadly, those days are gone - otherwise, politicians on both sides of the aisle would behave a lot better.

Oh well, I just hope the RNC doesn't *#£€ it all up and try to pull a fast one at the convention. We need to defeat the Hildabeast and roll back as much of the trauma that Zippy the wonder putz inflicted on this country as possible over the next 8 years.

I want to see Trump assembling a foreign policy team. Pronto.

It's crucial and better not be hilarious.
