All will wilt in the glow of the bright light of Donald J. Trump.

The silent majority is back, an no bought-and-paid for shills, Democrat or Republican, will stop us from making America Great Again.

Communism will help more white people than anyone else. Any equal measures unfairly provide less to minority populations just because there's less of them. Democracy is truly the tyranny of the mob.

I dunno--if I had to pick the next one it'd be one of the kiddie table entrants--Jindal, Santorum, Pataki, or Graham.

Yeah that's why I phrased it like that. I think the other zeros are next. But if Walker was sunk by nobody liking him so nobody funds his staff then I think Jeb is in trouble.

The Bible is full of stories of Leaders. Today Scott Walker is Leading, by suspending his campaign, in hopes that other candidates will follow his example, by suspending their campaigns.

I've got to believe the spotlight is about to shine brightly on Rubio. He'd better get ready; the Papal visit is going to touch on a lot of his issues.

Almost certainly. Possibly Kasich, but Rubio and Bush are more likely. From an outsider's perspective, I think Rubio is their strongest candidate (not in that I would vote for him, but that he would do well for the Republicans in the general compared to his competition), but who knows if the establishment/Republican voters think so.

Daaamn, this is a brutal primary. It's definitely hilarious how two "serious" candidates, multi-term governors, have been the first two out of the race. Who's going to be next? It seems like almost everyone else has motive for staying in it. Maybe Jindal finally caves, if there's not another kid's table debate for him. but the bottom tier candidates won't drop. Maybe Christie? yeah, Christie will be next. and then probably Jindal. Everyone else will tough it out until Iowa.

As a Bush, Jeb! is used to no one liking him. It has no effect on him as long as the lich known as Cheney is around to feed on that dislike. The sustenance was so great last time that his heart even began to beat again.

Rubio can't gain real establishment traction so long as Jeb! stays in. His family is the establishment.

No. Fiorina is this month's Carson. And Trump isn't trying to be the nominee.

You're also forgetting Bush, with his hundreds of millions of dollars, and Kasich, with him being a sort of compromise candidate.
Well those "hundreds of millions of dollars" didn't seem to help Walker much, did they?

Same here; Jeb! has shown that he can't stop saying incredibly stupid poo poo ("My brother kept us safe"), so that leaves Rubio as the big choice to take up the Establishment mantle.
