^^ I'd like to say he doesn't-- and he probably doesn't-- but in this age of extremism, I can't really be sure.

CoveTom, there are fundamentalist Catholics. I've met some, and Santorum seems to be one.
I was raised by them. :rommie:
 
:(

Speaking as a Brit can I ask, just Trump have a hope in hell of getting the Republican nomination?

He is second in many polls and leading one American state (North Carolina). Anything is possible, but it is still a long shot. I don't see him gaining any more momentum than he already has because I think he has peaked with the core voter base that subscribes to what he is saying right now. Plus, I think other candidates will do better in the debates.

It will be Bush v Clinton.

Clinton wins 282-253. Bush flips Florida (obviously), Nevada, Colorado, and Iowa.

Either a Bush, a Clinton, or both have run in presidential campaigns since 1980. George H.W. Bush originally ran in a primary against Ronald Reagan. The only exception is Obama's second term.

As a registered member of the Republican Party since I was old enough to vote, I can say with confidence that I care for none of these people. Especially Donald Trump. The one I'd most likely vote for is Jeb Bush, and that's probably because he visited my second grade class while on the campaign trail for governor of Florida and he seemed like a cool guy at the time.

I really hate that, for me at least, voting has become a matter of "Okay, who do I hate the least?"

I have called North Carolina home for 38 years. Sadly, I have seen it decline from a Democratic state of progressives to Tea Party driven politics which embarrass even my Republican friends (and brother).
Want to bet? ;)

IF CLINTON DOESN'T WIN I'LL DRIVE SOMEONE OFF THIS BOARD ONLY TO RETURN INTERMITTENTLY TO BE LAUGHED AT.

I'm still going with: Sanders 2016!
:guffaw::guffaw:Oh wait, are you serious? :rofl::rofl:
 
Jeb Bush. But I picked Donald Trump. If I'm going to Hell, it might as well be an entertaining ride.
 
So what are we up to now, 17? 18?

The GOP primary race is like a clown car!

:lol:
