So if pissant or that hippy woman came back you’d buy that from them?

There are so many pissants and hippies in the world I'm not sure who you're referring to. I was just commenting about that poster. I actually thought she was Roger Stone herself, until I read what she wrote. She has a picture of him on there with his famous/infamous tattoo.

Yeah, I saw that. LOL I loved working for Al Haig and Ronald Reagan, but I draw the line at a tattoo.

Do I really have to explain his statement that day at this remove? And yes, I did, Jimmy Carter and Ronald Reagan.

Not sure what Trump is up to, but leaking this info this early throws another monkey wrench in establishment Republican calculus.

As far as Cruz is concerned Trump and Cruz’ polling totals close to 40%. If this becomes more of a real story with 40% those 2 have locked up the nomination.

Trump leaves nothing to chance especially on something like this. By the time the first primary rolls around he will have already won and will be campaigning with his VP against the dem nominee. That is Trump’s style.

“Stone and Trump have been tight for years. Stone is running Trump’s shadow campaign.”

TRUE!

“The Vice President is the president of the Senate.”

Idle speculation anyone? Last time I checked not even a single primary vote has been cast. Iowa Caucus is not for another 5 months. It’s almost certain that the polls in January will be different from what they are today. Just think back on what the polls were just 4 months ago. Scott Walker was leading in every national poll and leading by some distance in Iowa.
As for Ben Carson, it’s almost certain that he will bring very few black votes either as presidential or vice presidential candidate. Blacks will vote over 90%’for the Democrats as usual.
Equally, it’s almost certain that a higher percentage of Latinos will vote for the Republican candidate than the percentage of blacks voting for the GOP candidate.

He is the right ethnicity (it certainly matters for the Republicans to garner votes and not be perceived as racist).


The free $hit brigade care less about Carson....You have no idea how MANY blacks thinks...Granted...He may garner 1% more with Carson...that’s it!

Great, an idle speculation free-for-all! Regarding Ben Carson, his VP candidacy helps inoculate (sorry, bad pun) the Republicans against any lingering white guilt, not for the purpose of bringing in any black vote (as you are statistically right, a Trump/Carson ticket would never accomplish that).

Both are honest and trustworthy and that means a lot today! I would take either but would prefer Cruz!

Same answer as on my post #55. Not a move to get the “free shit brigade” voters, rather overcome a lingering of white guilt in the voters. After all, wasn't Obama easily put over the top in the election on that issue? Even Rush speculates that it was a feelgood vote.

He was a highly successful pioneering pediatric brain surgeon and is also black. Making him a good fit on an outsider ticket that needs to peal off support of blacks from the Democrats.

I think Cruz is a better fit, but I favor Cruz as my first choice for POTUS too.
