Ordinary people do not differentiate between chapters 7, 11, and 13. The other candidates could totally paint trump as having personally gone bust because some of his companies filed chapter 11 and get away with it.

Actually republican candidates did try and hit him on it see the first few debates and he remained unstumped because he just had to say exactly what you said : no one knows the difference so he goes "no I never went bankrupt. Chapter this this blah blah and people tune out and everyone is ok with it now

Christie asking "Can I introduce Kasich," as long with the obvious other stuff in the debate, has made him my favorite non-Trump candidate.

He would be infinitely better because he's not scripted and would actually get loving dirty with her. Remember a month or so ago when she tried to play the sexist card and Trump smacked that poo poo down so fast? AND Bill clintons faborability numbers went from high 50s 60s to low 30s when he said he was a women abuser??

Yeah if you really are a democrat please hope that some dumb establishment moderate gets the nomination.

You learn zero lessons from how the GOP works. Reality means nothing. Messaging is all that matters. Just simply repeating something over and over makes it the truth eventually. People in this very forum believe old tired Clinton lies simply because they were constant pounded on until they were truth.

Not that it really matters, but I think Rubio would still have a better chance against Hillary than most of the rest of the field (especially a vanity candidate like Trump). Rubio's got a relatively thin record, but he's telegenic and young and he's an effective cipher for whatever your political beliefs might be. Cruz is far too much of a true believer for that to be possible, and the rest of the field isn't really that likely to ever get to the point where it would matter.

If only we could pick arbitrary dates for a "S&P Index" start point and end point, we could determine the range of how well that would do.

In Trump's defense, several casino's in Atlantic City have gone bankrupt, and they weren't all Trump's. 20 years ago, the only places you could legally play blackjack in this country were AC, Vegas and Indian casinos. Now just every state in the northeast has casino's as nice as in Atlantic City, and they have free parking and the best part is, for me anyway, is that I don't have to drive 2 hours to the Jersey shore, but rather 10 minutes outside Philadelphia. There are a lot of lovely business ventures that Trump has been involved in that deserve to be called out (Trump steaks, Trump University) but I wouldn't include his casino failures as one of them.
