1. Let The Circus Maxmimus Begin...

Despite the corporate's media to portray them as a "national" party, we continue to witness the implosion of the Republican party into the rushpublicans. Even at this late date Willard continues to struggle to convince his own party to support his nomination and its not clear who really calls the shots here. In the power vaccuum the extremes fill the void...and that's what we're witnessing here.

Next week we'll see a party so disconnect and fragmented that it is likely to turn off more than turn on. We could see a replay of the '92 RNC fiasco where Pitchfork Pat scared millions of voters and helped Poppy booooosh be a one termer. There's zero moderation within this party now and each speaker will try to out birther or out abortion or out "freedom" or out-get-the-government-out the next one...platitudes, insults but little of substance.

While team mittens attempts to control the convention and message, I suspect we'll see more of the ineptness of these frat boys and girls. Get the popcorn ready as we move one step closer to the ultimate destruction of the former republican party...
