"Anybody's Guess!"

I'm back again. Since I last wrote, the Republican herd has thinned out quite a bit, and it looks like more will be dropping out soon.

Trump looks like a runaway train, although, I have yet to see anything specific about his plans. Cruz and Rubio are in "attack mode" against "The Donald", but it may be too little, too late.

The Republican debates have degenerated into little more than screaming matches filled with vitriol and hate filled rhetoric to the point of becoming unlistenable.

If the establishment Republicans really want to "dethrone" Trump, it must be done over "specifics", not trying to match him in the amount of epithets they can aim at him. Let the Democrats do all the name calling and concentrate on the important issues that are now "on the table". Both Cruz and Rubio  are more versed on the actual politics of the issues than Trump and that is where their forte lies, not in a "getcha, gotcha" game.

As for Trump, he must present his actual plans instead of screaming names and ranting. I know Trump is an intelligent man or he never could have accumulated the fortune he now has; he needs some savvy political advisors to help him construct a cogent and easily understandable diagram of his plans and all the particulars of each plan. If he can do this, he will be virtually unstoppable, both for the nomination and the general election. Trump has "struck a chord" with the American voters; he has voiced the anger and desperation that have been building up over the years of the Obama Administration.

Now to the Democrats, where do I start? This is a party that wants to appeal to the most radical of its members and to the most "moldable" of society. It looks like the "perfect storm" for a Democrat defeat in November.

Hillary has more bad publicity and baggage than one could imagine. No candidate for president should be allowed to have a resume like this one. She has been proven, on video, to be a compulsive and really poor liar. Benghazi is a huge weight to carry into a national election, and she can't explain it away, no matter how hard she tries. Her "hubby" is the worst womanizer ever to hold the Presidency, yet she believes she can speak to women's rights, even though she didn't have enough self respect to dump "Slick Willie" when he treated her like garbage.

Bernie Sanders, what can I say about Bernie; he is a self proclaimed socialist, a draft dodger and a man who didn't hold a regular job until he was forty years old. He rants against the wealthy, even though the wealthy have been creating American success since the nation's conception. He says he wants "free college for everybody", but his plan is a fiscal impossibility to accomplish. He wants to expand welfare, a system that is already rampant with fraud and graft. Bernie's base is basically students and people who are looking for a free ride at somebody else's expense; to quote an old country expression, "That dog won't hunt!"

In short, the Democratic slate is a walking disaster, and the Republicans seem to be doing their best at trying to give the election away by appearing divisive within their own ranks.

It looks like the winner will be the one who "screws up the least" in front of the American public. I am at a point now that I believe almost anything can happen, and the prospect is scaring me to death!

Stay tuned, who knows what will happen next!
