    Other than the debate he skipped?

    Like I've been saying. He wins on sound bites, she wins on policy. So it'll come down to the swimsuit and talent competitions.

    I know! Why isn't anyone looking into or writing about the Clinton Foundation? I mean really.

    Trump also fed off the crowds at the GOP debates, which were sort of an upmarket Jerry Springer studio audience that wanted laugh lines and conflict. General election debate watchers aren't supposed to be demonstrative.

    The article from June 2015 where he and two other "reporters" felate the Clinton Foundation doesn't count.

    But government isn't a one man show. He will have a Cabinet and can delegate details. All he needs to do is LEAD and make the country FEEL GOOD again, like Reagan did.

    Happy Days Are Here Again!

    I will not post the rest of the day as I am booed off the stage for this. But there is something to be said for carrying a message and leading, and leaving details to the delegates and advisors.

    His opponents and the moderators are always hesitant to challenge him when he doesn't seem to know what the hell he's talking about. I think it's an innate human instinct not to humiliate someone.

    Other than what you would call the "right-wing media," that's a really good question.

    The Associated Press is the "right-wing media"?

    Tell me how the WaPo, NYTimes, ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, Time, Newsweek, LATimes, etc. picked up that story and ran with it.

    More accurately, I'll tell you how those outfits barely mentioned it and then buried it.

    The AP?


    edit: I see someone beat me to it.
