* Hillary Clinton says that the public is "angry" and "hungry for solutions" ... but doesn't that conflict with a run for the presidency that, in essence, promises a third Obama term?
* Some GOP movers and shakers think Ted Cruz is the answer because of his far-right conservatism, but wouldn't a more-centrist Donald Trump have a better chance to win the votes of moderates, independents and even some Democrats? Doesn't Trump have the potential to gain "centrist" votes, especially when Hillary or Bernie lean so far to the left?
* What is the logic and/or importance of NATIONAL presidential preference polls when there are no more than 15 states that aren't "locked in" to one party or the other?
* Ted Cruz or Marco Rubio would lose states such as New York and New Jersey in a November landslide, but isn't is possible that Trump could actually have an outside chance of defeating Hillary and/or Bernie in those states?
* Does the GOP establishment -- and candidates such as Cruz and Rubio -- think that people who continue to vote for Trump are stupid, unknowing or unpatriotic? And how would those "stupid" voters likely react if they felt that te will of the people (those voting for Trump by substantial margins) was subverted by the GOP establishment and/or the lamestream media? Wouldn't many of them decide to "stay home" in November?
* Is Marco Rubio evolving into a "puppet" and/or mouthpiece of the GOP establishment in a desperate attempt to derail the Trump Express? And if and when Rubio is perceived as an establishment candidate, can he lure any Trump supporters to switch to him when the establishment is a major part of what Trump voters are opposed to?
* So many primary voters tell pollsters that they haven't made up their mind days or even hours before voting. But doesn't that indicate that such voters -- perhaps at many as 40 percent -- are making spur-of-the-moment choices and that their support for candidates isn't too solid? Might it lead to a conclusion that many last-minute choices hinge on things such as a negative TD ad or the suggestion of a friend rather than solid voting logic?
* Many obviously feel that Trump is "out of bounds" in criticizing a past GOP president (about the Iraq War, for instance). Logically, it would then be assumed that a Democrat candidate should be under fire if saying anything negative about Obama or a past Democrat president. So aren't candidates for public office allowed to state opinions apart from "politically correct" positions "mandated" by their respective political party?
