You are still thinking I'm talking about this Levin guy... I'm talking about the action of, not what he actually did, but how one carries it out..

You use so many pronouns and so few direct references to the subject in question that I really can't follow you. You see, when you use "he" right after you use someone's formal name, that means you are referring to that person, so the above makes no sense to me. Plus, the "action of" and "what he actually did" are pretty much the same thing. Why don't you just give the specifics of what you're talking about instead of pronoun laden generalities?
 
Lets start over...

It amazes me how quickly some of the conservative talk radio sect change sides when it comes to their favorite candidates.

This is what I'm talking about, nothing more, nothing less.

Probably one of the most extreme, Mark Levin, started out hating trump, to loving him, to hating Trump again claiming he's "not conservative" due to his stance on ethanol subsidies, to defending Cruz all the time.

This is what you think I'm talking about. Not once did I mention anything about Levin, rather you asking me to point out something from him, which I was not defending, clearly seen here:

That's not what I'm defending.

and here:

That's not what I'm saying and you know it.

You then must've completely skipped over this point, where the OP easily saw what I was talking about:

Read the below statement.

So how you still continually think I'm talking about the comments he made, vs. the way one structures a paragraph so poorly, I don't have the slightest idea..

Let me make it really simple for you:

I think he's talking more or less about the indecisiveness within the same paragraphs of their thought, as if they totally forgot about what they just said..

Which specific person belongs to the following pronouns?:

1. He's
2. Their
3. They
4. They

Please reconstruct the above quote using formal names instead of pronouns and we can start over. You used 4 pronouns in a single response without a quote attached referring to any particular person. It's impossible to follow.
 
National Review is being disinvited from at least the February 25th debate for publishing a anti-Trump editorial. I don't know if the ban extends to future debates, but it appears that the magazine isn't backing down.

Read the original editorial here

As of now, the Feb. 25th debate is being hosted by CNN.

- This little gem is proving to be interesting. It is from the New York Times:

In their minds, it would be better to effectively rent the party to Mr. Trump for four months this fall, through the general election, than risk turning it over to Mr. Cruz for at least four years.
Click to expand...

In other words, it would be better that Trump fails in his election bid than have a winner in Ted Cruz who they can't control.

They have trouble understanding him because our words can be interpreted multiple ways by those people and us. Saturday in a wheelbarrow.:lol:
 
I do agree that political commentators flip-flop on their position fairly frequently, but we need to remember commentators are still entertainers, they are going to say whatever to get readers, listeners, or viewers even if that means flip-flopping mid sentence, paragraph, etc*.

*this isn't directed at any one commentator since there seems to be an issue with trying to distinguish that point.

Apparently Trump has been caught re-tweeting tweets from a neo-nazi group. This is not surprising to me.

The Donald is a well known Neo-Nazi and we all know that retweeting other known Neo-Nazis is the way to get elected. Amiright?

I'm not going to get on Trump for that one. He retweeted a photoshopped pic of Jeb Bush canvassing in front of Trump Tower. Nothing wrong with that. This particular incident reminds me of when people said Ron Paul was a neo-confederate racist because that stormfront guy took a picture with him. It's silly nonsense. There are much better reasons to get on The Donald's case.

Watch how much coverage it gets compared to the review of Clinton's actions in handling sensitive information ...
Click to expand...
Yes because retweeting a photo of your opponent in front of one of your buildings is totally on the same level as classified material on a private, unsecured, non-government server. Like totally.

At least one of the emails on Hillary Clinton's private server contained extremely sensitive information identified by an intelligence agency as "HCS-O," which is the code used for reporting on human intelligence sources in ongoing operations, according to two sources not authorized to speak on the record. Both sources are familiar with the intelligence community inspector general’s January 14 letter to Congress, advising the Oversight committees that intelligence beyond Top Secret -- known as Special Access Program (SAP) -- was identified in the Clinton emails, as well the supporting documents from the affected agencies that owned the information and have final say on classification.

The State Department is trying to stonewall a Federal court order by "requesting" a delay of the release of the final batch of emails from being released, due to be released on the 29th, by a month. This is also convenient because some of the most critical primaries fall during that month that the State Department is requesting.

The State Department's official reason? The Snow Storm Jonas.

How popular was he in NY and how big of an impact could he make in the polls there as an independent?

Breaking News: Michael Bloomberg is apparently sensing weakness, because he is opening up an exploratory committee for an independent run, according to the New York Times:

OP Edited accordingly.

The Democrat and Republican side of things are ripe for a potentially successful late entry. I wouldn't be surprised at all to see Smilin' Joe Biden or even Al Gore throw their hat into the ring at the late stages after Hillary and Bernie attempt to devour each other.
 
Hillary is taking herself out, she doesn't need anyone to help her. And that's not how Bernie is anyway. His recent campaign TV spot is proof of that.

Bloomberg is reported to be considering a bid, chances are he could bleed support from both sides of the divide. With the Democrat prime candidates busy in combat with each and with the Republican primes being Trump-Cruz (sounds like a methane-driven engine system) I'd say pretty much anything could happen right now.

Running as an independent in '92, Ross Perot garnered 19% of the popular vote (and zero electoral votes), drawing equally from Clinton and Bush. In '96 he did much less well on the Reform Party ballot. I voted for him both times, and for Libertarians since then.

I think he's doing a lot better than most people see. Mainly because all the media cares about are Trump and Clinton and their f-ups. Other than that hiccup last month, he's been a hell of a lot cleaner than those two.

I see far more bumper stickers in his favor than any one else here in the city. Not sure what to make of it so early on.

My brother, his wife, my Aunt & Uncle and all 3 of their kids and myself are voting for him. It's certainly going to be interesting.

The only reason why it was phrased the way you said it is because the NYT source wasn't allowed to speak on the record about it.

That doesn't mean much to me, I've seen many families vote the same way during election cycles. I just find it interesting that he seems to have the best bumper sticker sales in this state.

Voting for him for what? He isn't running for anything yet.
