My aunt was the clerk of a tiny town in Michigan in the mid-90s that got caught up in militia fever. In the span of a few years they took over the town, hired their buddies until they had 15 cops in a town of 500 (they had 1 originally), and after a few years they all got the ATF knocking on their door for buying assault weapons intended for like urban SWAT teams and stashing them in a rusted-out truck in a field outside of town for when Clinton came to take away their guns.

Now, I don't really know. Will the GOP establishment concede the nomination to Trump purely on the basis of voter popularity? How does this size up with his superficial attempt in the 2012 cycle? For as much as I should hate Trump for his reality show personality and policies, I can't help but love him for obliterating his primary competition.

At this point I don't think there's any doubt that he's going to drop out. But I'd be a little surprised if he did it before Iowa. On the other hand, all signs - the comment, pay cut, and this family meeting with supporters - suggest that doing it sooner rather than later is an option on the table, so PostNouveau posted:Why is Ben Carson so quiet, mellow, low key?

There's no way he drops out on Monday. I mean, he's in third in New Hampshire only behind Trump and Carson. Also, Trump just announced that he's done jabbing at Bush and has started his assault on Carson, and Carson's lead over Bush isn't that great.

Jeb's campaign is a non-starter and it's lighting money on fire trying to start a non-starter. The Daily 202: Jeb Bush’s 86% burn rate underscores fundraising struggles for the GOP establishment quote:The former Florida governor spent 86 percent of the money he collected over the past three months, burning through $11.5 million of the $13.4 million that he raised. quote:Despite tons of pro-Bush ads airing in the early states, and Jeb’s aggressive schedule, his numbers are lingering and languishing in the single digits. The campaign chalks up its high burn rate to building an infrastructure that can win over the long haul, but insiders fear Jeb is overly dependent on his super PAC. The big open question is whether establishment Republicans are nervous enough to start thinking about throwing their weight behind another candidate or whether they will stick with Jeb in the long-term out of loyalty to the Bush dynasty. Jeb will not be president of anything. EDIT: He's also probably not gonna drop out Monday, but we can all hope. He certainly can't take another month like this. He's gonna have to get some kind of PR win. At this rate, he almost certainly will not appear in any upcoming elections. Full Battle Rattle fucked around with this message at 17:04 on Oct 25, 2015 |

In other news, Chris Christie got kicked out of the Amtrak quiet car for being a loud boorish rear end in a top hat, aka being Chris Christie. He was drinking a McD's strawberry smoothie at the time and doesn't appear to have lost much weight despite his stomach surgery. As much as Jeb sucks at campaigning, you've gotta give him some credit for at least sticking to his diet.

I remember reading about Rubio's benefactor (http://www.nytimes.com/2015/05/10/us/billionaire-lifts-marco-rubio-politically-and-personally.html) rescuing him from his personal money problems. I think this will be difficult for Rubio to get past that as the attention shifts towards him-- the Republican base seems especially intolerant towards politicians that are perceived as "purchased" (as Trump's effective line of attack against everyone has shown). Joementum, interesting post about Rubio being passed over for VP in 2012, but I can't actually remember how high Rubio's profile was back then and if he was a serious candidate for the job. I wonder if his meteoric rise in Florida politics has outpaced the ability to dig up any of his dirt, which will start becoming known as the campaign season continues. sharkbomb fucked around with this message at 17:27 on Oct 25, 2015 |

Chris Christie was the only Republican I feared since a few years ago Serious People were trying to make him out to be a moderate Republican that conservative Dems should cross the aisle and vote for. Luckily for us the Tea Party turned on him and in an attempt to stabilize he shed the venire that he isn't 500 pounds of poo poo in a 400 pound bag and went full public rear end in a top hat.

To be fair eating your way right through stomach stapling surgery is not unheard of at all. It's one of the biggest risks of the procedure and can kill you if your thimble-sized stomach bursts due to over-stretching.

He was definitely being touted as a serious candidate for VP in 2012, especially in light of his hypothetical ability to cross demographic lines and appeal to Hispanic voters - it was felt he might offset the sheer overpowering White-Bread-osity of Romney. Having said that, Ryan and his emphasis on the budget was probably viewed as the more attractive option, given that the economy was where Romney needed all the campaign emphasis to be, so the fact that Rubio wasn't picked as the VP candidate may not be an indication that there's anything particularly damning about him... but he seemed like such a natural pick that it's still a valid question to raise, methinks.
