This is how I see it. The political scale cannot be accurately represented as a line. It's more of a circle. Starting from the bottom, you can go left or right. But once you eek upward past the "zone of idiocy" you're both insane. The top is inhabited by equally insane, equally violent, equally Marxist, equally fascist liberals and republicans. These, for some reason, are the people that get the most coverage and attention, and they grow louder as a result. I don't blame people for seeing it or disagreeing with it, but I blame people for giving it exposure and giving rise to it's appeal. This is exactly what is happening. The one time, in my lifetime anyway, that we as conservatives could have put a constitutionally principled man in charge of our country, slipped right through our fingers. And all it took was a man to come along at the right time, or the worst depending on how you view it, and spew a WWE style rhetoric, and people have ate it up without any thought to what this carnival barker has stood for his entire life before the last 9 months. Today is truly a sad day for our nation. Spot on and we can't even blame Yankees or some other group the south did it on Super Tuesday the moral fabric of the country said yeah let's chose a casino/strip club owner adulterous liberal democrat to be our representative. Way to go us! Hopefully it works out well and The Donald is a man of his word and tries to actually make a positive impact for the country. I truly hope he does Ben. The future of our country, at least as we know it now, and for our children's sake, hinges on both Trump beating Hillary in the GE, and him being the man he has claimed to be for the last year.
Yeah, well, I always heard there were three kinds of suns in Kansas: sunshine, sunflowers, and sons-of-bitches.

Just let what you said sink in. We chose to take a chance like that and we chose Donald Trump to be the guy in charge. That is unbelievable. Hope all you Trump guys did your home work

Yall better stock up on guns and ammo cuz President Hillary is coming. We truly missed out on our last hope to restore America after the last 8 years of BS. Hillary, with the help of the media, will absolutely eviscerate Trump in the months to come. Let's face it...a guy who spouts off BS about Senator Cruz's father being involved in the JFKS assassination? Really? You expect him to win the general?! Good luck with that.

What I'm really curious about is why John Kasich still in the race??
Exactly Kasich is a lot like those Japanese soldiers that hid out in the caves until the 60's. They didn't know it was over for them either.

One thing this election has taught me is that there is no way to predict what will happen, either way. Trump has broken all the rules and proved all doubters wrong,, to this point. Could Hillary destroy him? Maybe. Could Trump continue trending upward and take Hillary out? Possibly. The only two things I'm sure of are that no one knows how the election will play out and I know that I won't be voting for Donald or Hillary. Everything else is just speculation.

I just don't see Hitlary winning. Too many people have been screwed by Obama and the democratic party... Change will happen and Trump will carry the day. And Trump is certainly the better choice now than Hitlary or Socialist Sanders. Like I said before, my first round of voting was based on my convictions (voted for Cruz), but my next vote will be whoever is the candidate against the democraps.
Jesus... I hope you know Him personally like I do.

I know that I won't be voting for Donald or Hillary I still don't understand you on this. My best attempt at an analogy everyone would understand; We are going to the hunting club this weekend and I ask everyone if they want steaks, burgers or chicken? Everyone in the camp voted burgers and chicken except for you, so I bought enough burgers and chicken for everyone. When we get there, instead of picking burger or chicken, you choose to go hungry because you say you'll only eat steak Just pick burger or chicken. Don't go hungry

People have said for months, "Why does Kasich or Cruz think they can beat Hillary if they can't even beat Trump?" ...don't you reckon that same line of thinking applies across the aisle, too? Hillary is having a tough time with a freaking Socialist...why do you think she can beat Trump so easily?

My vote has to be earned. It's mine. I am not obligated to throw it in with others just because they think they must follow the crowd. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion and they can do with their vote wherever they like. I don't feel the need to be part of something I don't believe in just because others think I should.
