I am crossing my fingers for a Republican fight at the convention. Not only because it would be entertaining to watch, but it would also rip their party to shreds. It would be the end of the modern Republican party as we know it. A collapsed Republican party opens the door for Democrats to make moves and gains all across the country.

We live in interesting times. Cross your fingers and hope for the Republican party to implode.
