First Jeb Bush, Now Donald Trump

Post by ShotgunBlast »

Does this mean the establishment vote will be split so that a more conservative candidate can get the nomination, or does flooding the primary process with a bunch of establishment candidates ultimately result in an establishment nominee.

Chris Christy wasn't available for comment.

Donald Trump has a slightly better chance than Jeb, simply because he isn't a Bush.

Also, Trump has engaged in questionable business practices, in the past. Libs should love that.

What the number and diversity of Republican candidates shows is that the real party of freedom, tolerance and opportunity is the GOP - at least of the two major parties.

The spectacle of spineless Democrats holding their noses while cowering under the glare of Clinton's scowl is really quite disgusting.

I totally agree Bob. Even if I personally don't like a majority of the candidates, I'd rather see them slug it out in the primaries than see a coronation of a candidate that everyone is scared of going against.

The GOP's clown car is starting to fill up. Mitt Romney must be laughing his ass off.

Earlier this year Mitt said he wasn't going to run only to tease that he might run only to announce he's not going to run. The guy flip flops on everything, but there's still time for him to squeeze into the car.

Very true. I guess they still need someone to drive.

"Clown car?" The only truly non-serious candidate is Trump (though one could question Huckabee's motives also). The others, while we might disagree with them and work actively against them in the primaries, are all decent men and a woman who have honest reasons and solid qualifications for seeking the job.

Put it this way: even including Trump, the worst GOP candidate is better than every candidate the Democrats have fielded in the past forty years put together.
