It's going to be a republican President isn't it, I mean the US aren't going to vote a woman (especially her) or a communist into office are they?
If she's the nominee she will win and I think she will be. If it's Bernie I really don't know although he would beat Trump or Cruz. I really though Rubio would carry momentum out of Iowa but apparently not.

Yeah vs Trump or Cruz I think his message and general human-beingness would win over, I think against Rubio his age would be used against him like it was McCain.Is there a specific reason why congress seems to favour the Republicans? Is it a rebound thing where there's a backlash against the party of the Prez, or are the constituencies weighted in such a way as to favour Repubs?

According to Ch4 News Jeb Bush has already spent $150 million on his campaign - that must work out at $1000s per vote so far.
And to think the Tories are in trouble over here for over-spending by £50k during a by-election.
It's a completely different world over the pond and it can't be good for democracy.

$150millon spent and he's got close to zero chance of getting the nomination surely? Was he hoping the "name" would carry him home?And to think the Tories are in trouble over here for over-spending by £50k during a by-election.

I really can't get over just how much of a massive tool Donald Trump really is.

Trump said:
I always carry a weapon on me. If I'd been at the Bataclan or one of those bars, I would have opened fire.
Hopefully the bullet would have ricocheted and hit him right in the balls.rohrl said:

The GOP field is winnowing, with Christie and Fiorina out we're almost down to serious contenders. Why is Carson still in? Beggars belief really. Kasich did well in NH and he's the only one of these morons that I would vote for but he has no cash and no ground game going forward. I can't see him getting past Nevada. That will leave Spunktrumpet, Jeb, Rubio and Cruz. Jeb will be on the brink then too if he doesn't show a solid 3rd in both.
The Dem race is going to start getting nasty now. The irony is that, just like Trump isn't really a republican, Bernie isn't a democrat. You can expect to be told that ad nauseum over the next few weeks. He's desperately trying to get some African American support (met Sharpton yesterday) but Hillary is very strong there. She should win SC and NV and that could stem some of his fundraising. Expect fireworks though.
