The primary will only really light up if JEB ends up in the same "can't quite seal the deal" situation that Mitt Romney had in 2012 and we cycle through a series of short-lived front-runners until he wins through sheer tenacity, or if things get really fun and he's forced to drop out or actually loses early and the clown car field will actually be within striking distance of the nomination.

Unfortunately, there's not really any hope of the general election being as exciting as it was in 2008, with the excitement over Obama, finally ending the Bush years and the apocalyptic addition of Palin. At least it's another chance for America to make the right decision and banish the Bush family from power.

http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/conservative-leaders-plan-two-secret-meetings-aimed-at-picking-2016-candidate/ar-AAb3jdt

quote:

A secretive group that serves as the umbrella operation for leaders and activists within the conservative movement will host two meetings in the coming months, National Journal has learned, the first to vet Republican presidential candidates and the second to discuss coalescing behind one of them.

The Council for National Policy, a shadowy organization of several hundred dues-paying members, typically meets three times a year in various locations around the country. But with the 2016 cycle accelerating, and many conservative leaders intent on rallying behind a single candidate, CNP's leadership is taking extraordinary measures – scheduling two top-priority meetings outside of Washington, D.C., and inviting a large number of non-members to both.

The group will host a two-day summit on May 15 and 16 at the Ritz-Carlton in Tyson's Corner, Virginia. The format will be simple: Candidates will have an hour on stage to address the room and answer questions, followed by 30 minutes of meet-and-greet with guests. Organizers say they've begun sending invitations to all of the major Republican candidates – "even Chris Christie," one said – and several candidates have already committed to the event...

Ha!

quote:


Hillary, who is so out of touch and thoughtless that she thinks it is appropriate to eat a burrito while traveling across the country with four others in a van?

During the first day of Hillary Clinton’s two-day, 965 road trip from New York to Iowa, The New York Times Maggie Haberman couldn’t stop gushing over the fact that Ms. Clinton stopped at Chipotle for a chicken burrito bowl.

Saying she was tipped off about the stop (probably from a Clinton campaign eager to show how real their candidate is) Haberman was practically breathless about the Chipotle scoop

Haberman (who swears she’s not a plant from the Hillary Clinton campaign disguising herself as a New York Times reporter who rabidly supports Hillary Clinton) failed to point out that after Clinton ate said burrito, she got back in the van with two aides and two Secret Service agents.

Ms. Clinton, who probably hasn’t driven a car in decades, and most certainly hasn’t lived outside of her velvet Washington DC bubble in almost a quarter century, is so out of touch with the real world that she thinks it is appropriate to wolf down a burrito while sealed in a small luxury vehicle with four innocent people.

Haberman is aware of the term je ne sais quoi, but seems unwilling to report on a Clinton faux pas.

There are many unwritten rules of the road, chief among them, “If you eat a burrito, you ride alone.”

"Hello, YouTube. I'm kinda having a difficult decision," Webb lamented in the 3-minute video. "I don't know which party to vote for. ... I don't know whether to go for a Republican or a Democrat -- and I'm serious. Because I asked myself, I said, 'Which party has helped me out the most in the last, I don't know, 15 years? Twenty?' And it was the Repub-, err, Democrat Party. The Democrats."

"I mean if it wasn't for Obama and that Obamacare, I would still be working," Webb continued. "With Obamacare, I got to retire at age 50. Because if it wasn't for Obamacare I would had to work till I was 65 and get on Medicare because health insurance is expensive."

Webb stressed how valuable it was that he'd been able to retire so early and still had health care coverage. He also noted that Obamacare reimburses him for his gym membership.

"It's some kind of healthy lifestyle plan, program," Webb said. "So I mean, you know, I got, I'm trying to work out and exercise a little bit and lose some weight 'cause I'm retired now. I got all kinds of time to go to the gym, swim, you know, lift a little weights, do some little walking, run track, stuff."

Webb also bemoaned the fact that he couldn't put his faith in the Republican Party any longer.

"The Republican Party they ain't done nothing for me, man. Nothing," Webb said. "So, I'm leaning toward voting for Hillary. Unless something major comes up. I don't trust the Republicans anymore. They're wanting to repeal the Obamacare. And, I don't want them to do that, man, 'cause then I'll have to go to work again."
