mind you, the whole "hi donald!" thing from Kelly is pretty great now in retrospect, knowing that she was fondling a dagger under the table the whole time

Luntz's focus group rated the performances Kasich>>>>>Cruz>>>Trump>Rubio. I think that last bit is important.

Isn't Bloomberg supposed to announce this week?

He was supposed to act as a spoiler to Bernie. I'm not really sure what he hopes to achieve with Hillary around. Bloomberg is pretty much Hillary, but instead of having Wall Street connections, he is built into the foundation Wall Street.

They ended with asking all the candidates if they would support Donald Trump. They asked Marco first, he said yes.

That sort of blew a hole in his campaign.

It's a little bit juvenile, but it's simple and it's timeless.

We let it be known that Schnorkles, for a snack, eats tiny pieces of shit.

You're picturing it and you're talking about it. That's a win in my book.

saying "ill support trump if he's the nominee" is pretty meaningless because they're all willing to do anything to stop him from becoming the nominee.

Pretty much. They powers that be are like "gently caress it, let Trump have the ball, let him blow up, and we will rebuild"

We are in the acceptance stage.

Romney just came out this morning and called on the candidates to categorically disavow Trump as a totally unviable nominee. This was treated as a big deal during the news day. Now, less than 16 hours later, every candidate has pledged their support to him.

No, it's actually a big deal. Rubio was the lead candidate of the #nevertrump movement. By saying he'd support Trump he threw that entire movement away.
