The real Question is...is there a candidate that you, or I, is aligned with. If you are comfortable with one then you are fortunate. I on the other hand face abstaining for the second time in 3 elections. And no Dear God I cannot vote for Mrs Clinton.

I've got a feeling Debbie Wasserman-Schultz is currently in talks with Steve Harvey to host the Democratic Convention.

Speaking of Queen, and with David Bowie dying, I'm reminded that as a teenager, I saw Queen open for David Bowie! No one knew who Queen was, and we all just wanted them to get on with it so we could see Bowie!

I saw Yes, Genesis, and Deep Purple around that time too ... those were the days!
Those were the days, musically, I just missed them due to an accident of birth . Prog Rock is timeless though but I often wish I'd have been able to see Tull perform Thick As A Brick live for the first time.

Comfortably Numb contains one of Gilmour's best solos, right up there with the one from Time, and that's saying something because all of his solos are sublime.

I need to see him live so I can complete my top three lead guitarists

I just found out the AZ primary isn't as open as I thought. There are in fact two separate elections. March is the presidential preference election and August is the primary which doesn't have the presidential race. Guess which is open and which is closed. Independents are the largest group in AZ so guess which crazy old people in Sun City decide the primary...

This is part of Palin's speech:
Foot kickin' - finger clickin', leather slapping - hand clappin' -
hip bumpin' - music thumpin' - knee hitchin' - heel and toe -
floor scuffin' - leg shufflin' - big grinnin' - body spinnin' -
rompin' stompin' - pumpin' jumpin' - slidin' glidin' - here we go
Tush pushin' - thunder footin' - cowgirl twistin' - no resistin' -
drums bangin' - steel twangin' - two steppin' - end to end
hardwood crawlin' - some four wallin' - rug cuttin' - cowboy struttin' -
burnin' yearnin' - windin' grindin' - lets begin the dance again

Whoops, that is actually a song by Steps.

At least one Sun City resident supports Bernie Sanders. My wife's grandmother spams facebook with Bernie posts every day

Not 100% but I've learned to be realistic about how much I can expect other people to bend to my will. I'm old school --- if you don't vote then you don't get to bitch about your government. Ineligible expats excluded of course. ;-)

I think it's fair to say that the National Review aren't going to endorse The Donald any time soon.

And!...the nomination goes to...

As for the National Review, I've drawn the same conclusion. I'm a subscriber, so looking forward to reading all the articles by all the solons as to why he should not be The One.

Are they all for Cruz? I know Glenn Beck is. As a conservative force, unless they are consolidated , the anti-Trump blahblah is pointless. Has Bill Kristol endorsed anybody?
