New Jersians/New Yorkers know the word "quiet."
I'm mildly surprised we haven't seen the Christies and Jindals and Santorums start to drop like flies at this point.

There are limits, but 2012 demonstrated that a Super PAC sugar daddy can keep a candidate running long past realistic viability. It requires operating on a shoe-string, but Santorum is doing that now, has already done that and he's the prime 2012 example. This time Perry and Walker have dropped out with flush Super PAC's, though. I think they were in it to win it, though. Some motives don't need a competitive performance in delegate counts to make sticking it out worthwhile--book sales, speaking fees, TV access, an inflated martyr complex.

I didn't watch the real Democratic debate, but that was probably just as entertaining.

With wages stagnant since before 2009, Trump just dropped his pants and took a big dump on his presidential ambitions. Not every Republican is a business owner or making 6+ figures.

Lol, I think Trump is on a slow downslide, but if he's proven anything he's immune from being defeated by one single gaffe.
Looking at it from a liberal (read: sensible) perspective, of course it's silly. From a conservative perspective, "our wages are too high" means "THEIR wages are too high" not "YOUR wages are too high." THEY being the lazy, entitlement-sucking, service industry schleps who don't work in a 1950's fantasy world of manufacturing jobs.

The guys paying the guys on the podium are, though.

Probably not. Between that and "operation wetback" (as a fairly thick skinned libertarian, even I found that offensive) and lackluster debate performance he is on his way out.

I can't take much more of trump, and I can't believe anyone ever thought he was a good idea to represent our country to the world.
Between he and Carson it's like a contest to see who is more clueless and out of touch.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics ... story.htmlIgnoring the clickbait headline:
The apprehension [about Trump and Carson] among some party elites goes beyond electability, according to one Republican strategist who spoke on the condition of anonymity to talk candidly about the worries.
“We’re potentially careening down this road of nominating somebody who frankly isn’t fit to be president in terms of the basic ability and temperament to do the job,” this strategist said. “It’s not just that it could be somebody Hillary could destroy electorally, but what if Hillary hits a banana peel and this person becomes president?”
