MARK LEVIN: So I believe the establishment media were poised to declare Fiorina the victor over Trump and most of the field. So she is one of the establishment favorites...
You don't have to agree with me, but at least let me put some facts out there. The indications were everywhere. Most of the same voices who opposed Trump, and before him Cruz, are singing her praises today. Notice that?
Notice how quickly they have lurched from Bush To Kasich to Fiorina? ......

That's f$%king awesome right there.
Carly is simply the latest hope for a BULWARK to hold back the conservative tide forming among the electorate. It’s already washed over Señor Yeb and several other. The ruling elite are currently in a state of giddiness over Carly.
This new post on FR is a great tie in to Mark’s cutting through the elite BS.
Irreconcilable Differences (Good Read)

...There’s a huge chasm between the ruling class of American society and those over whom they rule. It’s not simply a disagreement over the direction of society. In many respects, the duty of the ruling class is to guide their subjects to the right policies. In a sane society, the people in charge are smarter and more knowledgeable so they better be more right than the masses.
No, the dispute today is over the nature of society and it is an irreconcilable dispute. The ruling class of today imagines a world that does not include a thriving, rambunctious middle class that participates in the decision making. They imagine a world that looks a lot like feudalism, where the people are kept, like pets or farm animals. It’s a world that cannot accommodate the English speaking world’s idea of a citizen.

FioRINO is an abortionist and big government statist.
I guess I missed the “lovefest.” I see her mostly being ignored by the press, which of course is hanging on Hillary’s every incoherent word.
However, I did read a really good article by a conservative female columnist this morning in which she said that the thing that she liked about Fiorina is that she wasn’t running “as a woman,” but just as a candidate, to be judged on her ideas and likely capacity to carry them out.
All of the other female Prez or VP candidates, of both parties, have done a little too much of this “vote for me, I’m a woman and I deserve it” or even the sort of “little spunky me” thing. We’ve had Ferraro (remember her?), Hillary and Palin, and I think they all lacked a certain level of seriousness in their campaigns. Like her or not, Fiorina is simply running as a candidate and not as “the first woman president.”
Of course, Barry ran as the “first black president,” and it helped him, but I don’t think it helps women as much.
I listen to Mark Levin when I get the chance and there is certainly a strong affinity between many of the ideas that Mark expresses on his show and those in this blog post.
Only if and until she takes down Trump. Do you really think they'll let a woman who gave such an impassioned defense for the dignity of preserving the life of pre-born and just born infants would get their support over hillary?
Meghan McCain endorsed her, that’s when I finally woke up. I really wanted to believe in Carly, and I don’t have a problem with anything she said Wednesday night, but I’m finding more and more that the love fest is because the LSM feels she is eminently beatable in the general.
This is an old flim flam game. The media are going to push Fiorina until she actually beats out Trump...at which point they will destroy Fiorina.....and clear the way for a Dem.
I wouldn’t even be surprised if Bush is spending money supporting both Carson and Fiorina. He probably figures once the Donald is gone he can more easily deal with Carson and Fiorina.
Donald is not always at his best in certain circumstance, but hes optimistic and proven to be successful. Plus, he’s only one who talks about securing our border. I’m sticking with him..
Yeah, Mr. Levin knows a phony when he sees one. And doesn’t mince words either.
Rewind the tape and see how Michelle Bachmann and Sara Palin and Sharon Angle and other more localized women like Christine O’Donnell and Claudia Tenney were treated.
The hypocrisy is out there for all to see if they will look.
I just made exact same point. We r both very smart. Ha!
If Fiorina pushes Trump aside, the media will destroy Fiorina...and then get to Carson next. The media would hate a woman or a black man leading our party....it screws up their fake narrative about republicans.
With all that said, I do like Fiorina or Carson.....either one would be an excellent VP.....to a President Trump. Seriously, a Trump/Fiorina or a Trump/Carson ticket would be absolutely great. And, Fiorina/Carson would be there in the wings for 8 years down the line.
But, without Trump leading the way, the GOP ticket would be too weak, lack energy, and have no dynamism. For all his faults, Trump has an ‘it’ factor that both Fiorina and Carson lack...and we need the ‘it’ factor this time around.
I like Carly especially when she is trashing Shrillary but I just don’t agree with most of her positions. She’s not going to overtake Trump. Not in this lifetime.
The bookkeeping done at Lucent has some wondering why she isn’t behind bars like those at Enron. When will that be brought into the light?
I speed read Mark’s and went to your posted article.
That article described where we are with this election.
See my new tagline based on that post.
The Republican Establishment candidate, Jeb Bush, tanked more than a month ago, and all of the Establishment’s tens of millions and all of their support haven’t been able to put him back together again.
Meanwhile, the Republican Conservatives’ most favorite candidate, Ted Cruz, has never been able to rise out of single digits.
So who’s left?
According to polls, 93% of Republicans are familiar with Donald Trump, yet only 35% of them support him. Which means that 65% DON’T support him. And he failed to beat even Carly Fiorina in Thursday’s debate, then yesterday he became the subject of a big media-created brouhaha over the question of Obama’s possible Muslimism, and today he’s retreated from the whole political mess the Republican presidential race is fast becoming.
So who is left to pick up the pieces and try to win the presidency?
Ben Carson has many Evangelical, social Conservative supporters who can become a strong base, especially in the South and Midwest.
And Carly Fiorina has the ability, as demonstrated in Thursday’s debate, to attract many supporters, particularly if she’s given more media time to relate to people and get her views across than the tiny two-minute segments offered by debate formats.

She’s going to drop when she is subjected to scrutiny, just as Carson did. Carson is not a fraud, but he was exposed as being over his head in this dirty field of politics.
When Carly took the kangaroo court judge’s side over Kim Davis, she lost me, permanently.
She comes across as another crabby old woman.
