    That's a very bold statement. No, I mean it, why did you bold that whole statement?

    I think Kasich is the best of the bunch, but has little chance of winning.

    You mean you wouldnt be happy to see Senator KY-Jelly-Mixed-In-With-Fecal-Matter become president? Or what about Governor I'd-Use-The-Armed-Forces-To-Control-Women's-Uteruses?

    They will all want to raise defense spending, have no material changes to SS or medicare, want to cut taxes and balance the budget. May as well run for president of Candyland.

    You forgot "... and cutting taxes" to which this relevant and intelligent commentary from a few years ago by perhaps the last decent economist that held a top job in a Republican administration:
    http://www.forbes.com/2010/05/06/tax...-bartlett.html

    The lede of this opinion piece by Bruce Bartlett sums it up:
    Tax Cuts And 'Starving The Beast'

    I believe that to a large extent our current budgetary problems stem from the widespread adoption of an idea by Republicans in the 1970s called “starve the beast.” It says that the best, perhaps only, way of reducing government spending is by reducing taxes. While a plausible strategy at the time it was formulated, STB became a substitute for serious budget control efforts, reduced the political cost of deficits, encouraged fiscally irresponsible tax cutting and ultimately made both spending and deficits larger.

    A couple of websites (http://www.gawker.com) are posting Donald Trump's cell phone # (917)756-8000

    Call and ask him what he thinks of Mexicans and what his net worth really is.

    Huckabee said he'd use federal troops to stop abortions. He should worry, though, because the army may stop his campaign.

    No I like Chico Loco. I don't like you. I think you're a worthless, cum guzzling n-word lover.

    I saw a news report stating that this number now forwards to a campaign promotion message. Lemons... Lemonade.

    I watched LOLdebate.

    I'm surprised Ted Cruz was so bland, he should dominate debates.

    Jeb Bush is the literal worst.

    I thought Kasich did really well, but I suspect rank and file republican hate him.

    Christie/Huckabee/Carson didn't need to be here. I don't get Carson's appeal as a candidate.

    Rubio was decent, but is garbage.

    Did Rand even get a question? His fight with Christie was nice, though.

    Trump was attacked by the moderators and was Trump. If you like him, you liked him tonight, I think. Kinda unfair treatment, though.
