    Yep. I liked how he kept saying how "everyone said we couldn't do this!" I kept thinking "everyone said you couldn't come in third?"
    Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

    Dig your own grave, and save!

      The best part of these speeches is to watch the people behind the speaker. Cruz has a crazy guy behind him.

      I wonder how fast he drops the preacher persona as he moves to NH.

        John Schindler is a former NSA guy who has become kind of a Twitter expert for information related to the intel community. He also got caught a couple of years ago for texting his ding-dong to someone with whom he wanted to have sexual relations outside of marriage. He's written an interesting article on this latest batch of Hillary emails. If Hillary wins the presidency, which I still think is highly doubtful, I think we'll see massive turnover in the military and IC. There's a lot of resentment there.

        And what about those 30,000 emails that Ms. Clinton had deleted? “I’ll spend the rest of my career trying to figure out what classified information was in those,” stated an exasperated Pentagon counterintelligence official, “everybody is mad as hell right now.” “The worst part,” the counterspy added,” is that Moscow and Beijing have that information but the Intelligence Community maybe never will.”
        At a minimum, valuable covers have been blown, careers have been ruined, and lives have been put at serious risk.

          Joe Biden or Elizabeth Warren could have had this thing locked up by now. Either one could step in now and probably take the nomination.

            That is the worst part, not knowing what the Chinese or Russians (or anybody else with whom they decide to share that information) have. How do we do damage control? How do we know what was compromised and what wasn't? What programs do we end? What sources have been compromised? Is it time to roll it all up and start over? Can anyone imagine the costs of doings so?

            I can definitely see Trump pulling a boner move like that. I don't understand why Hillary is getting such a pass on this.
            Give 'em Hell, Cougars!!!

            For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.

            Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

              I was glad when Warren didn't run. I don't like her politics, but she would have ran away with the Dem nomination and likely would have easily won the presidency. She's a younger, little less extreme, female version of Sanders.

              I think Biden would have split the establishment vote with Hillary, thus opening the way for Sanders to get the nomination. In fact, that might have been the real reason Biden didn't run.

                Huckabilly dropped out last night. Guess who didn't drop out -- Rick Santorum.
                Part of it is based on academic grounds. Among major conferences, the Pac-10 is the best academically, largely because of Stanford, Cal and UCLA. “Colorado is on a par with Oregon,” he said. “Utah isn’t even in the picture.”

                  Santorum must still have money from the last rodeo that he can spend traveling around and acting relevant.

                        Joe Biden should announce he's running and the DoJ should announce the next day that they're seeking an indictment of Hillary.

                        It's becoming an untenable position that Hillary should ever occupy the office. The email server issue not only shows bad judgment, but also carelessness that indicates callousness to the consequences. Then she has tried to cover it up to the extent that we may never know how much damage she's caused. Finally, they've delayed the release of the latest batch of emails until after the early primaries and one day before Super Tuesday. Who knows what quid pro quo emails involving the Clinton Foundation are floating out there that the Russians and Chinese have.

                        No end to her ambition and of course no shame. Thank goodness half the Iowa Democratic caucus goers (or whatever you call them) supported her massively underfunded opponent. It appears as if she'll get her ass kicked in NH.

                          So what happens in the end? Bernie is the nominee? I don't see the DNC allowing that to happen. He would be soundly defeated by any of the Republican "establishment" candidates and perhaps by Cruz as well.
