Please look forward to me propagating your work, unedited across the vast expanses of the InterWebs.
If you click the link at the top of THIS page, it takes you to real clear politics. At the end of the excerpt there at RCP, the “read the rest” link takes you to a Google page, where the behind the pay wall WSJ link is.
Yeah, we hear that every election... until September when the begging and pleading starts.
The first step to winning an election is nominating a Conservative.
Here’s a killer comment from reader John Reale at the WSJ page.
“I follow Peggy just for the fun of her invented friends and their perfect quotes. My all time favorite is Caser her deli man. This article was a real treat.
We had Lloyd and Bill - both with children they had to explain the political process to!
Her friend John who was walking in a neighborhood. with his app that described voters!
Her unknown friend who was aware of the catch in her voice, “Yes, he said, quizzically, comfortingly, we did.”
The numerous emails she receives from people who are grieving.
Putting her face in her hands and sobbing listening to a Paul Simo song on YouTube.
Go, Peg, go. Maybe one of these days you will realize than an opinion column should rely on facts and not fiction.”
All I did was click the link provided here, went to the site, where it said ‘read the entire article’ I clicked on that, gave me a bunch of google results, clicked on the first one and went right to it. No problem.
Your hearts must be pure....
Oh yes, most definitely....HAHAHAHAHA!!! ;)
Peggy Noonan aka Blanche DuBois was having the vapors over Obama in 2008. She’s an idiot.
They’re going to beg and cry anyway because everybody wants to go in on a mandate and Trump is clearly offering a mandate. Cruz is just offering an alternative of nothing.
Hillary is going to be slaughtered by Trump, with cruzerites or without cruzerites.
You're mistake is to assume that you represent the ordinary conservative. No. You're part of the cruzerite conservatives -- which are now RINOs on the right. Just my opinion.
Any lady with brains and logic.
I think it’s now been “fixed”.
Re: “Trump is our only chance to keep our country.”
I’m not confident.
Massive LEGAL immigration is the number one political crisis faced by American Conservatives.
New immigrant citizens vote 80% for the Democrat Party, yet a majority of Republicans still support massive LEGAL immigration. In the New York state primary, less than 10% of Republican voters thought LEGAL immigration was a serious problem.
Trump and Cruz have vaguely suggested that they would slow down massive LEGAL immigration under certain economic conditions, but it is clearly not an important issue in their campaigns.
In 2012, Mitt Romney was the first presidential candidate in American history to win 59% of the white vote - but lose the election!
In 2016, the Republican candidate will need to get at least 63% of the white vote to even be competitive. That’s not realistic.
Ronald Reagan set the all time historical record with 66% of the white vote in his 1984 landslide victory.
But in 2016, Ronald Reagan could literally not get elected governor of California if he posted the same numbers he got in 1966 and 1970.
In a democracy, mathematics have the final word.
Politically, the math says American Conservatives are dead, no matter whom we nominate.
I’m praying we can turn it around, but each year it gets harder.
"If you’re a writer lucky enough to have thoughts and be paid to express them and there are Americans on the ground struggling, suffering—some of them making mistakes, some unlucky—you don’t owe them your airy, well-put contempt, you owe them your loyalty. They too have given a portion of their love to this great project, and they are in trouble."
Peggy earned the contempt she receives on FR, but sometimes...
Well they didn't even want to get an idea why it was splintering. They were just appalled that someone dared challenge their authority. They reacted like typical tyrants, willing to pull things down if they can't get their way.
The GOPe had absolutely no interest in WHY Trump was winning. They put absolutely ALL their energy and thinking into destroying him.
Dumb GOPers.
Trump’s campaign is being run by the Libertarians now, just wait and by November, Trump may not be deporting anyone. The Libertarians support open borders.
