14. There are still many, many clowns to fall from the car.

It's good that Cruz will be next week's front-runner. With 11 months to go before the election, that means there will be a new GOP front runner every week or two. They have the attention span of a grapefruit. Every single one of the clowns in the 2012 car also held the front runner spot -- for a week or so. The sooner they put Nutbag Cruz in the spotlight, the better. One by one the clowns will fall down, spill their buckets of confetti, shoot water from their lapel flowers, and Jeb Bull will be the nominee, as the only "sane" one left.
