Maine BARS Trump in 2024 - 2024 Candidate/2024 General Election

BBC News: Reports " Trump blocked from Maine presidential ballot in 2024 "

Lets Get Real:

This is a Democrat playing games, the US Supreme Court has to rule this out of order, the same with the Colorado BLOCK, the Democratic Party is playing games, the Republicans should start to play games and block Biden from Texas and other red states, the Democrats are making the US political system a laughing stock, Putin will have a field day with these moves, and the voters will not be happy, they decided not hack politicians.   Is the American system so broken it cannot work any more.

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH OF PLAYING GAMES.

Texas Abortion Law Update - Part 2 - Biden Era

Sky News: Reports " Private citizens can sue abortion providers and facilitators for at least $10,000 to enforce the law. "

Lets Get Real:

The new Texas Abortion will hit women who can not afford to leave the State, also it targets anyone who helps with an abortion six weeks after conception, thus parents to taxi drivers, it is that broad.  Those lawyers will little ethics will chase clients to get them to sue, they win either way!  The US Congress must ACT and now and not next year, the Democratic House should pass a resolution and the Senate Democrats should fight to get it through.  A woman has a right to an abortion, in cases men do a runner and they are left holding the baby.  Think of the welfare cost if abortions are banned in Texas and the cost in taxes, and more important the morality of preventing a women getting an abortion, its her body, not that of the State. 

Biden leads in NATIONAL US Polls - US Presidential Election 2020

BBC News - Live Blog: Reports in its 10.48pm post the following, " The latest data puts Biden about 10 points ahead of Trump.  "

Lets Get Real:

If Florida or Ohio go for Biden then we know its OVER on election night, of course if the rust belt States go together, Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania go for Biden the its a massive victory for Biden.  The interesting races will be the Senate races, do the voters really want to give the Democrats a CLEAN SWEEP, that would mean that it would be DOWN to the US Supreme Court to stop any massive liberal polices.  One can assume if its  a massive victory for Biden then even Trump will have to go quietly and hand over the power on January 20th 2021.   The question is what he will do between November and January, there  is only one President at a time, and a angry Trump might start a war with Iran and hand it over to Biden.  On the foreign policy side one should expect former Obama officials, also will Biden really be that tough with Russia and North Korea, also of course he will appease Iran, back to the Obama deal with them.  If the US Supreme Courts does revoke OBAMACARE, then Biden will need to build up his support for another attempt.  On the whole one expects a more quiet time from a Biden White House. 

Romney On Trump - Aftermath - Election 2016

Guardian - US Politic News:  Reports in its 4.38pm post the following, " Mitt Romney’s speech deriding Republican frontrunner Donald Trump as “a phony” and “a fraud” did his cause more harm than good, according to a poll released this morning...According to Morning Consult, 31% of Republican voters say that they are more likely to vote for the New York billionaire after Romney’s speech, with only one in five Republicans saying that the former Massachusetts governor’s remarks made them less likely to vote for Trump. Forty-three percent told Morning Consult that Romney’s remarks had no bearing at all on their decision. "

Lets Get Real:

Thus those opposed to Trump, and this blog could be counted in that group will have to look at other ways of stopping the Trump Master, as noted in the UK Sunday Times the issue of Trump University seems like a good place to start, in essence peoples invested thousands in the hope of learning from the Donald how to be a good businessman, all they got for the thousands was a picture with a cardboard cut out of the Donald.   The Republican Establishment has to  go after the business dealings of the Donald.   The US voter must be forced to see that the Donald is a con man, that his many business ventures have failed and he does not suffer.    This could be the last chance to STOP the Donald. 

Is Kasich the dark horse candidates of 2016 - Election 2016

The New York Times: Reports " Donald J. Trump is holding a double-digit lead in Michigan ahead of the state’s primary election on Tuesday, but there are signs that Gov. John Kasich is gaining strength.  "

Lets Get Real:

Governor Kasich is the dark horse candidate of the 2016, in the debates he has come across as the adult in the room, but and there is always a but, he needs to win his home State of Ohio, he has said if he losses Ohio he goes back home to being Governor.   Kasich has a good record, he worked in Congress, helped balanced the budget at the national level and in his State, the 1990s are looked back as the good years, you had a Democratic President in Bill Clinton and a Republican House and Senate, and they could work together minus the Republicans trying to Impeach Bill Clinton over an affair with an intern.   The only way that Kasich become the Republican nominee is through a contested Convention, do the Republicans have the courage to nominate someone like Kasich.   The following few days will be interesting. 

Rubio to LOSE Home State - Election 2016

Guardian - US New Live: Reports the following in its 7.20pm post, " Marco Rubio is set to lose his home state, according to a new poll released this afternoon that shows Donald Trump likely to win 38% of Florida’s Republican primary vote with Rubio nabbing 30%..."

Lets Get Real:

This is the moment that Rubio has to show that he is a WINNER, he has to win his home State of Florida, this sames goes for Governor Kasich of Ohio.   IF neither win and Trump comes to win them the race for the Republican nomination will be over,  On the other hand, should both win it means we will see a contest Republican convention, if one recalls the rules, sorry this bit is in the weeds, the delegates have to vote in the first round for the candidate chose by the voters, if no candidate gets a majority then the delegates are fair game for the other candidates to talk too and to get them to change their support.   THUS MARCH 15TH is IMPORTANT. 

Gallup and the Republican Race

Gallup: Reports on its latest poll of the Republican Race, today Senator Santorum leads Governor Romney by 36% to 26%, a 10% lead. This is time for Romney to finish off Santorum, if the Senator can take Michigan the home State of Governor Romney and do well on Super Tuesday the race will be different, Senator Santorum will be the presumptive Republican Nominee and Governor Romney will be the major underdog. This is might be the major shock that Romney needs to show if he has any backbone, does really want the nomination, then he is in a political knife fight for his political future, he really has to find a way to take Santorum down in Michigan and on Super Tuesday, otherwise it can be argued that Santorum could start to look like a Winner, this would be hard PR for Romney, as the poll from Texas shows, Santorum could be the candidate to beat, who saw that coming!

Santorum and Texas - Republican Race

Telegraph: Reports that former US Senator Rick Santorum has a 27% lead in Texas. Folks its down to Michigan, if Santorum can WIN Michigan and Arizona this race could be over for Governor Romney. Thus the Romney Camp has to spend its last dollar in Michigan, it would be a symbolic defeat if Romney was to lose Michigan, he was born there, he worked there and his father was a State Governor, if the people of your home State don’t trust you why should voters in other States. The question that Republican voters have to ask is can Santorum win against President Obama, as of 21 February 2012 the answer is NO. But this is February, lets recall Jimmy Carter and his Campaign wanted to run against Ronald Reagan, thus convention wisdom as this Republican Race has show is not sometimes worth the paper its written on or even BLOG. The Santorum Campaign has to keep the Senator off social issues, we all NOW he is very Conservative, the Campaign has to be about the economy, it’s the economy stupid as the Clinton Campaign used to great effect in 1992. Its going to be a interesting few months folks.

Romney vs. Santorum - The Republican Race

The Hill: Reports that the Romney Campaign is aiming its political arrows at ex US Senator Rick Santorum, the article notes the following, “ Santorum is poised to do well in two out of the three GOP nominating contests on Tuesday. ”. There are three elections today folks, Minnesota, Colorado and Missouri, the first two are caucuses States with delegates, although the article notes the result is not biding on the delegates, while the Missouri Primary is a straw poll, a beauty contest in may respects, also the Speaker is not on the Ballot. As posted yesterday the Speaker Gingrich has predicted that Rick Santorum will have a good night, if the ex Senator can cause an upset this will keep the race open, this might help Speaker Gingrich, if Romney does not win all three he can argue that once the process gets to Southern States he will start to win the big states, such as Texas. Lets recall folks the Obama/Clinton fight went down to the wire, also it can be argued that Senator Santorum might be looking to be Romney’s VP pick, that would make the Conservative base happy, also leave Speaker Gingrich in the cold. Long night folks, make sure you have plenty of coffee!.

Perry OUT - Republican Race

BBC News: Reports that Texas Governor Rick Perry has announced that he is out of the Republican Race and is supporting Speaker Newt Gingrich. This is good news for the former House Speaker, but he has a new problem, his former Wife has given an interview that could damage his Campaign, the article states that the former Speaker wanted an Open Marriage, in other words allowing him to have affairs. This could hurt him with Christians in South Carolina, but it can be argued that voters in SC are going to support a winner in the shape of Governor Mitt Romney, if Romney wins big on Saturday folks this race is over, the Republican Party wants to start fighting POTUS, not more months of internal battles that helps President Obama.

Is Perry the next President ?

The New York Times: Reports that the Governor of Texas, Governor Rick Perry has sent the message out that he is running in 2012. This blog gut has the same feeling about Perry that it had in the early days about Obama, the main stream media could be looking at the next President of the United States. Governor Perry has something of that Reagan style about him, also a Conservative, Texas has prospered while the US has gone down the drain. One should not bet again Perry, the front runner Governor Romney should worry, this is just the type of candidate the Republican Party can fall in love with, is Perry the 2nd Reagan?.
