fade5 posted:Once again, this post said exactly what I would say: drop the social issues like a hot potato, and go anti-globalization. The main issue here is that globalization is what all the money guys in the Republican party actually care about, all the social issues and other stuff is window dressing to them, the real goal is "more money, no matter what". Anti-globalization, what is this 1890? You can't put that back in the box any more than you can social security or gay marriage.

fade5 posted:The viable path forward for the Republican party is to throw out the social conservatives and the money guys, but the social conservatives are the fanatical ones who turn out to vote and the money guys fund everything. It's a hell of a pickle. They only really need to lose the money guys. The social conservatives can coexist with a nativist, protectionist wing; that Trump is terrible at faking piety doesn't mean other populists will be. But populism and business-friendly fiscal conservatism can't coexist in the same party, we're seeing the fireworks from that now.

Ohio is clearly within reach for Kasich. The anti-Trump plan currently looks like: - Kasich wins Ohio - Rubio drops out after losing Florida, endorses Cruz - Cruz and Kasich stay in until the end, siphoning delegates off of Trump - Trump somehow doesn't quite get a majority - Chaos? It's a lovely plan, but it's the plan they have.

Every time I see a right-winger attack Trump, it only increases my desire for Trump to win. He's an awful loving human being in most ways, but he's less awful that Cruz and Rubio and anyone who supports them.

Some people are true believers who will vote for the piss homunculus no matter what, and some people refuse to vote tactically on principle, but Ohio is being hyped up as maybe the last chance to stop Trump and everyone going to the polls will know it's him or Kasich. I'd be surprised if it didn't have an effect, possibly smothering Rubio.

at this point there is no chance of someone getting more delegates than trump so the plan is to deny him 1,237, and that depends on denying him either ohio or florida, and he is going to win florida. afaik awesome that the establishment's best chance is a convention fight

If Trump takes Florida and North Carolina, he will have swept the Confedaracy. I know that Cruz took Texas but, actually my state didn't count for poo poo in the Civil War. Trump will have dominated in every state that the GOP depends on for its survival.

I'm tempted to hit The Saurus for more time since he's somewhat worse of the two of them, but he's also by far the whinier of the two and would likely see it as some sort of validation of his worthless posts. Too bad you can only give one probation, that must have been a tough choice to make.

A funny and somewhat likely scenario is that Trump wins Ohio by like 2%, while Rubio pulls 8-10% and it's blindingly obvious that had Rubio dropped out earlier Trump would have lost the state.

no, it's well known registered voter polls tend to overstate democratic support compared to likely voter screens, by about 2% iirc, because democrats are historically worse at turnout but you can't effectively measure likely voters this early on and if there's one thing trump can be guaranteed to do, it's upset the usual likely voter screens (both making certain sections of the republican party more or less likely to turn out, and making minorities/women potentially more likely to turn out to vote against him) and anyone doing a likely voter screen this early is bullshitting you anyway
