It's actually required for each actor this season to have an understudy in case something goes wrong, helps ensure the show will go on without a hitch. Cute to see one rehearsing in public though.

Where did all of Jeb Bush's ad spending go? Did his senior staff pay themselves each $1 million each and spend nothing on actual advertising?

Mordiceius posted:Also, if by some miracle of god, Trump did get the 1200 delegates, they can't really make him nominee, can they? If Trump passes the delegate threshold or is leading by a plurality and somebody like Rubio or Jeb ends up with the nomination at the convention, the Republican Party is finished as a functional national political party.

Who says Trump even has to take the nomination? He can just up decide to run as an independent anytime he wants. If he does that, it doesn't matter who the GOP nominates, the Dems win.

^^ sore loser laws prevent this, but the party would die. They'd have to take him and then fund Hillary or at least attempt some sabotage.BGrifter posted:Is she bleeding out of her eyes or her nose or whatever? She was pretty cordial about Trump. Like "yeah that Donald, he's an rear end what can you do" and said ahe thought it would all work out after the debate. Carson, Cruz, Megyn Kelly... seems like no one ever demands an apology or harbors real resentment, like it's all theatrics, whether planned or not. Contrast with Bush, who clearly has a real offstage loathing for Trump, and Trump, who is in all likelihood a 9/11 truther hellbent on destroying the Bush and Clinton families alike (he has blamed them both for a share of 9/11). I'm so excited for the the establishment to push the hell out of the Jeb turtle "let's get serious" redemption arc because if he wasn't a Bush it would work. But.

I am pretty sure Carson is gonna piss all over Cruz in SC over the Iowa shenanigans, and SC is the state where it will hurt Cruz the most.

That is, unless Jeb is reading to schoolchildren when the exit polls are released. Then I might buy that he was innocent.

Quote of the morning, "Look, a dollar is a unit of measurement. It is the measure by which we assess: What is more valuable, a television or an automobile? The way we assess that is using the dollar to measure the comparative value. You know, think about it in a different context, think of the unit of measurement of time – an hour. Now, do you want a long hour or a short hour? As a practical matter, we want an hour to be 60 minutes, every time, over and over again. We want a stable hour, because it’s a unit of measurement. Money is the same thing – it’s a unit of measurement. So the reason why we see these rapid oscillations in commodities markets, it’s because of unstable currencies. And it’s why I think we should look at going toward rules-based monetary supply, ideally tied to gold, so you have stability. And I think that would improve the lives of a great many working people." ~ Ted Cruz, in Keene, NH.

I can understand the desire for going back to a gold standard. It's stupid as hell, but understandable because the status quo is poo poo as well. The pin-head central planners at the Fed are always either (a) clueless, or (b) stooges for/members of the Wall-Street elite. You would think Democrats would have a problem with it, especially since it's one of the main reasons the "recovery" is bull-poo poo and they could very well lose the next election, but WELP I guess Clinton is far from alone in being in their pockets.

Please explain in 5 paragraph essay format why having our currency backed by gold would be better than "the way things are done." Alternatively, a 5 paragraph essay on why "the way things are done" has hurt our economy more than helped it.

In theory, if a real man of the people becomes president, we could rig the fed to manipulate our currency to favor all Americans and to screw foreigners who do most of their trading in US dollars. If the value of our economy is tied to a shiny yellow rock, I think we'd be at the mercy of how valuable the rest of the world thinks shiny yellow rocks are. disclaimer: I don't remember anything from macroeconomics in college, and my experience in finance is limited to speculating on magic the gathering cards.
