    A lack of support for Trump equals a display of dodgy impracticality ? Yes, I see your point, Revelarts.

    By the way, isn't it Bill O'Reilly ? Even I know that ... !

    It's like sparring in sports. When one is upset that they are losing and trash talks, the winning team can just point and say "scoreboard".

    I like them all. But I'll let the polls and then the upcoming primaries do the talking. I'm happy with almost everything I'm hearing from Trump and Cruz, and between the 2 they are dominating.

    I was in two minds about whether to post this .. but on balance, maybe it'll serve as an illustration of the BBC's rabid, thoroughly disgusting, bias ...

    Just heard an advert for an upcoming BBC Radio 4 programme. It'll be broadcast next Monday, at 8PM (GMT). Its title is .. I kid you not, this IS the actual title ... wait for it ...

    TRUMP AND THE POLITICS OF PARANOIA.


    Says it all about their, ahem, 'objectivity', eh ?

    Its description is as follows:

    Michael Goldfarb looks at the history of America's politics of paranoia, from the beginning of the republic to Donald Trump's current campaign
    It's as I posted recently. Every so often, the BBC comes up with a programme (usually radio) which is intended to try and paint America in the worst way they 'can'. One particularly memorable one, years ago (obviously) was their 30 minute broadcast dedicated to the proposition that American troops in Iraq behaved as an oppressing invasion force, even vandalising Iraqi culture ...
    It's That Bloody Foreigner Again !!!

    Not going to happen. Like mixing water and oil. Trump wouldn't play second chair anyway. Too much ego. Cruz wwouldn't play second chair to Trump because Trump is not a conservative, and all he does throw low blows. I wouldn't work for him. He'd talk to me the way he talks to others about once.

    I don't know what conservative would even consider supporting him. Didn't we get this in 08? A completely unqualified person in office because he talked a good game? Talk about selling out conservative values.

    We got the unqualified one because of the blacks, Hillary's Iraq vote and the economy tanking.

    I'm not a Limbaugh fan, though he's usually right more than wrong. I think you were right about his 'not endorsing/supporting' Trump:

    I wish I could remember who said it. "Who would lie in an entrance poll? Makes no sense why anybody would." Well, obviously the entrance polls were not right, and the 13 polls preelection were not right, either. Exit poll question: "Shares my values." Trump at 5%, Cruz 38% "shares my values." Rubio 21% "shares my values." What is that a reference to, do you think? What is "shares my values"? (interruption) No, it's not religious voters. This is what everybody wants you to think. "Shares my values." This is a question of conservatism.


    This is asking people, "Does this candidate share my values?" This is an ideological question, in my estimation. I think this indicates that 5% of the voters that went in there last night and caucused think Trump shares their values as a conservative. Thirty-eight percent think that of Cruz, and 21% think that of Rubio. Now, if you add Cruz and Rubio, if you add their totals, you get 51% of the vote. Now, I do not know the degree of sophistication to which the caucus-goers last night consider who's the establishment candidate and who's the outsider or whatever.


    But if you combine Rubio and Cruz and if you just take them individually without attaching them to anything, you've got two conservative guys here. Rubio and Cruz are two conservative guys. That's 51% of the vote. Trump 24% of the vote. If you want to you can add Ben Carson, who's demonstrably conservative, and you're up to 60% of the vote in the Hawkeye Cauci was for conservatives. It works every time it's tried, is my point. Conservatism wins every time it's tried. When somebody tries to fake it, real conservatives are gonna spot it and it isn't gonna fly.

    While I'm not looking for the 1980's, there are lessons to be learned from Reagan. As Rush notes, there are lessons to be learned by what Trump has done, important lessons for the GOP. They need to listen and act, the truth is though, you learn more from your opposition than those that agree with you.

    RUSH: The establishment's out there going nuts, folks, thinking that they have made a giant recovery here.

    But at the end of the day, what do we have? We have Rubio. We have Ted Cruz. And I'm gonna throw Ben Carson in because this is a crucial point. We have two genuine disciples of Ronald Reagan in the top three places in Iowa. We have a very strong outsider in Donald Trump, who is showing the way in illustrating how to oppose the establishment and what not to be afraid of. And then we've got Ben Carson. And I would have to say Ben Carson is a disciple of Ronald Reagan. When I listen to Ben Carson talk, I hear Reaganisms.
