Rather than quitting and being forever labelled a quitter, maybe Trump is going for suicide by convention. Like suicide by cop, he could continue to do the bare minimum to sustain the illusion of being a candidate while also deliberately and intentionally provoking the delegates to dump his...

I think he's a laughingstock now among career politicians and that's just the way he and his "fans" like it.

There's another possibility that: 1) would satisfy Trump's ego, 2) free him from the strictures of playing ball with the RNC, 3) would not be too intellectually or personally demanding and 4) would allow him to escape being labeled as a "quitter". That would be to renounce the Republican...

It's no secret that in order for the Republicans to win they need to do much better with minorities and women. Of all the Republican candidates, he alone has not only not courted those constituencies, but seems to have been going out of his way to further alienate them. If he wants to win...

Trump: "The Republican establishment doubted me from the beginning. It bad-mouthed me all through the nominating process and even openly conspired to rob me of the nomination. Now that I've won the nomination, it won't support me in any meaningful way. Fine -- have it your way -- I'll be over...

I'm predicting that Trump will drop out of the race. Trump never really wanted to be president. He entered the race on a lark and got sucked into the process. He loved the ego-building adulation he received, especially as it came with minimal effort on his part. While he does a good job of...

Todd Coontz is a protege of Mike Murdock and I've heard both of them encourage listeners to sow their faith seeds for deliverance from credit card problems -- by placing their offering on their credit cards! And what do they advise if deliverance isn't immediately forthcoming? Sow more seeds!

The 3% of me that's Neanderthal just got a chub!

As the old saying goes: The Franciscans went to California to do good -- and they did very well indeed.

The success of the west Texas trophy-for-pay business depends in large part on the fact that, given the choice, a Pronghorn will attempt to go under a four-foot fence rather than over it.

IIRC, that same study found that if the youngest son was also left-handed then there was no greater chance of him being gay than if he had been first-born. (And that these tenancies did not apply to lesbians.) That being said, I know of a third son who is gay and left-handed.

It's during the Easter vigil, celebrated on the night before Easter Sunday, that (ostensibly) all of the holy water that will be used in the upcoming year is blessed. To accomplish this, blessed oil is poured into a large vessel of water (on the order of the size of a wash tub) as the large...

Observations from episode 3 Religious messages in scenes inside the church: On the sign posted at the front of the church near the pulpit where the hymn numbers and readings for the day are posted include one for "MA2752". That, of course, is most likely Matthew 27:52 in which Matthew...

When Bolling was a panelist on CNBC's Fast Money he used his time to pump natural gas stocks -- while simultaneously trading in that commodity -- assuring potential investors that ng was poised to reach all-time highs in the near future. His ng promotion was so self-serving and consistently...
