   My recollection of their primary was the R’s were about a million votes more than the democrats. I think Cruz will win going away.

   I brought up the unexpected close race with Cruz in Texas because whatever the outcome it means the race is now competitive whereas earlier it was an automatic. that means the Republicans are going to have to spend money there that they didn’t expect to spend.

   The Cruz race is not competitive. He will win going away. My guess he will win by two hundred thousand votes. The poll was weighted incorrectly to democrats in a R state.

   Here Paul Emery and all the readers interested in the Qpoll Paul cites. When you read this you will see the huge disconnect between the results of the poll and what the intervening percentages are on all the issues. Even the personal ones. Cruz will wipe out his opposition. The results on election night were a substantial R turnout and mass of voters. This is not even evident in this Qpoll. It just reinforces why these kinds of conclusions are such a joke.

    We don’t want Hillary’s numbers to go too low.. Might be bad for us, We want Hillary to stick around with her fingers in the DNC and choosing her candidates and making trouble for the Dems. We want her to be seen everywhere in front of the camera as often as possible, with or without her glass of Chardonnay. Whatever they served her in India must have been worth the climb up the steps, but I digress. Broken wrist, broken ankle….retirement had been rough of My Gal, but she keeps trudging along.
    Read that she will open the Spring DNC fundraiser as is custom for the party’s last nominee after an election. She is not the featured speaker or featured anywhere but in the lobby. She will be sitting at the gala entrance behind a table (probably with a stack of “What Happened” books to peddle behind her) and greet the arriving donors and the Democrat’s Who’s Who. Bernie went back to being an Independent Socialist, so he probably won’t be there. Just as well. He ain’t known for giving or donating, just receiving.
    Hillary-David Brock machine is the best thing for us. The Russian Collusion hype, Hillary blaming the crack of dawn for her being a Sore Loser, is losing its luster. It’s wearing thin on the worn out public. She’s a reminder to the voter to drain the swamp.
    Brock called Bubba the very day after The Glass Ceiling did not break and Bill was very interested what Brock had to say. Bubba liked the plan. Hillary was under the weather at the time. 🙂

    Outing of Hannity.
    Always remember that the attorney-client privledge is to protect the client, not the attorney. Even if Cohen is not an attorney, the public does not have the right to know the names of uncharged 3rd parties. Bending the rules again just adds speculation that this is a political witch hunt instead of a valid investigation, IMHO.
    “The United States Attorneys Manual admonishes that “in all public filings and proceedings, federal prosecutors should remain sensitive to the privacy and reputation interests of uncharged third-parties.” Unless a person has been formally charged with a crime, not only should the government avoid publicly naming the person; federal prosecutors are further schooled to avoid even an “unnecessarily-specific description.” In other words, while calling Hannity “Client No. 3” would have been proper, even referring to him as “S.H.” would have transgressed the policy. There is no justification for publicizing his full name.
    https://www.nationalreview.com/2018/04/sean-hannity-outing-violates-law/
    While CNN delights in embarrassing Hannity (without telling its viewers that it was CNN’s own lawyer that got the judge to disclose his name publicly), just remember one thing. What the government did to Hannity, they may and will do to you on the Left next. I would temper my giddiness, you Lefties and Hannity haters, because chickens have a way of coming home to roost. The FBI went judge shopping and found one who is not too bright. But, then again, all the rules are going out the window.

    On this day in 1775, American militiamen at Lexington and Concord confronted 700 British Red Coats — firing the opening volley for American Liberty. The British governor had ordered his troops to seize weapons in Concord. It is no small irony that the first shots of the Revolution were fired in response to a gun confiscation order.

    Bad news from Trumps inner circle
    From Breitbart
    “Thursday on CNN’s “Wolf,” Harvard Law professor Alan Dershowitz said President Donald Trump should “assume your best friends will flip” to cooperate with investigators once they are charged with crimes.
    When asked about Michael Cohen, Dershowitz said, “I have told every client I have represented over the last 53 years—assume your best friends will flip. Prosecution has an enormous leverage. They can charge you with a dozen crimes, even if they’re relatively technical crimes, that accumulate with the guidelines and tell you you’ll never see the outside again, you’ll serve your life in prison. That kind of pressure brings forth not only singing but composing. Witnesses realize the better the story, the better the deal they get, so the risk is they will exaggerate or elaborate or even sometimes make up stories. I think the president has to assume that his closest friends, his greatest associates, the people he trusts the most, if exposed to the risk of life imprisonment will flip. That has to be his working assumption.”

He couldn’t throw it from here to the camera towards the end accurately. He was so locked up as a quarterback. … The tape doesn’t lie. And to get through the activist part to the football part, you then have to battle that last year of tape — which isn’t very good either.”

    Oh Walt,….oh Walt…oh Walt!, that is funny indeed. You cannot indict a sitting President. The DOJ’s Office of Legal Counsel, which issues legal memdoranums to the Executive Branch on matters of Constitutionality, holds steadfastly to the view that you cannot criminally indict a sitting President. This is the DOJ’s stance and legal ruling for 45 years now, unchanged under Democrat and Republican presidents. The Office of Legal Counsel first issued its legal rulings, memorandums,and DOJ policy in 1973 under Nixon and held the same position with its update in 2000 under Clinton.
    Meuller knows this, Comey knows this. It is impossible to have a criminal investigation of someone you cannot indict.
    Funny, every talking MSM head on TV along with every guest expert lawyer, every former judge from any jurisdiction, every prosecutor from all levels, every defense attorney, legal anaylist, and every legal expert fails to mention this.
    So, the pesky questions remains. If you cannot indict a sitting President, then what is Meuller doing? He is exclusively from day one building a case for articles of impeachment. Thus, when Meuller recently announced there is no criminal investigation of Trump, he was telling the truth.
    From last year:
    https://ijr.com/the-declaration/2017/06/903710-mark-levin-gets-right-point-doj-cant-indict-trump/
    The NYT can to the same conclusion as former DOJ official Levine.
