So now we are down to Kasich vs Rubio in the establishment division of the Republican conference with the winner going up against Cruz of the Evangelical division and Trump of the anti-establishment division. On the Democratic conference, Clinton is opening a solid lead over Sanders although that conference race is not over by any means. Bush dropped out after another poor showing in SC. I think now that his whipping boy Bush is out, Trump will attack Rubio because he doesn't think Kasich will be much of a threat. Rubio is Trump's biggest threat since Cruz cannot even carry the evangelical heavy SC.
Trump actually backed down a little in his verbal fight with the pope. I guess he doesn't want to lose the Catholic vote. I agree with what the pope said about Trump. But I am wondering if the pope is saying building a wall is not christian like, what about the wall around the Vatican. Is the Vatican taking in any refugees from the middle east now or in the near future? Isn't the church's policy against birth control help increase the population in third world countries and thus increase poverty and migration? But overall, I like pope Francis and I think will make changes that will benefit the church and its followers.
It's too bad that Kasich isn't doing better in the polls. Here's a guy that has the experience and is not polarizing like the rest of them. I hear that he's putting all his eggs in Super Tuesday and the Midwestern states. So we'll see how he does.
ReplyDeleteI thought the same thing about the wall at the Vatican. Though that was put up many years ago to stop invaders and not illegal aliens!

Yes, Kasich is the only reasonable GOP candidate left. He is the only one not calling the others liars. Well, Carson is not saying anything either but he is not really still in the running. I see Trump says that Cruz is the biggest liar he knows. I guess that would include Clinton if they meet in the general election! He has a point though as Cruz has to fire his spokesman today. But Trump tweeted about Rubio being not eligible to be president. Then he says that he simply retweeted someone else tweet. It seems like a lame excuse for a presidential candidate to say something he knows to be untrue.
ReplyDeleteYes, the Vatican wall is for a different purpose. But I wonder if Muslim refugees show up at the wall, will the Vatican take in a reasonable number of refugees? I think if Mother Teresa is in charge, she would!
