With all the gaffs by Trump.. with all the collusion of the RNC/GOP leadership and mainscream media, Cruz still could not get 50% of the Wisconsin Republican voters. Additionally, the Republican turnout was 39% higher than the 2012 primary, and .. get this. even though Trump came in second, Trump got MORE votes than Romney did in 2012!

On the Democrat side, not only did Bernie win, Hillary got 24,000 less votes than she did in the 2008 Wisconsin primary..

Online headline/story: "SCOTUS denies request from DC Madam's attorney to release info *  The U.S. Supreme Court on Tuesday denied a request from a lawyer who once represented a woman known as the "DC Madam" to release records from her famous escort service. * Those records include such sensitive information as customer names, Social Security numbers and addresses— information the lawyer, Montgomery Blair Sibley, has said could affect the 2016 presidential election. *  Sibley wanted the Supreme Court to lift a lower court order, in place since 2007, that bars him from releasing any information about her records." -- Good grief.. if the lawyer wanted to release the info, all he has to do is basically "let" his computer to get hacked or his office "get" broken into. There's something fishy about the lawyer even approaching the Supreme Court unless he's trying to get public leverage to blackmail someone.

---
Why is it that Cruz hasn't grasped that the RNC/GOP leadership is not talking about him being the "fresh face" to win the nomination if Trump gets derailed?

---
Think I've come up with a family friendly political name for local GA State Rep RINO Smith....S**t*.

Irony strikes mysteriously..The IRS building burst into flames...I could only think about the childhood chant we all remember.."LIAR, LIAR, pants on fire."

---
Hmmm...Wonder how many e-mails and servers went up flames when the IRS building burst into flames.

---
In the upcoming NY debate, I hope Wolfe Blitzer asks Hillary did she refer to Chelsea's daughter as : fetus, unborn person, or her grand baby when she found out she would become a grandmother.

From the "slogans we'll never see on the walls of a Democratic Party voter registration office or in any government entitlements office" department - L-E's  "Thought for Today": “Never think that you’re not good enough yourself. A man should never think that. My belief is that in life people will take you at your own reckoning.” — Isaac Asimov (1920-1992)." -- self explanatory....

---
L-E story: "No limit — Stop the violence” is a call to action that’s been circulating on Facebook this week. If you’re wondering what it all means, here’s some background. *  The man behind the slogan is Minister Antonio Carter, founder and president of a Columbus-based organization called the National Joshua Generation. He’s calling on 100 black men to meet 3 p.m. Thursday at the Citizens Service Center on Macon Road for a press conference, where he will roll out a plan to address the moral decline of the black community.” -- Finally, I hope, and initiative that not only addresses THE issue.. but one that can adopt a message of ""Black LIFE Matters".  It's only a step.. but journeys begin with the FIRST step.

L-E headline: "Ford to invest $1.6B for new plant in Mexico" -- and you wonder why Trump leads the pack and won in Michigan...

L-E headline/story: "San Francisco approves full leave for parents *  The San Francisco Board of Supervisors voted unanimously Tuesday  to require six weeks of fully paid leave for new parents   *  The state already allows workers to receive 55 percent of their pay for up to six weeks to bond with a new child. The money comes out of a state insurance program funded by workers." -- "funded by workers"? What BS! It's the EMPLOYERS who have to build in such "payments" into the salary packages  to make employees' "net" attractive enough to keep them on the job. In addition, that "extra" costs will be built into what consumers pay, so the success of such a program won't be determinable until after companies prove they can survive adding on expenses.

On the above item.. think about this.. what's better for the baby.. having mom at home, and dad wanting to get home after work to see his new baby, or.. the husband being around too much, and the wid=fe making him leave and go play golf or something so she doesn't have two babies to deal with?

Once again.. who is paying for all the ads being run by "together2016/BuildingBetterColumbus.com"? Several problems and their solutions could have be paid for by the amount those ads cost.
