    The national polling averages has her up by 4 points. If that holds, that will translate into a landslide win.

    Republican Convention lineup fails to match the hype

    now that party officials have finally released the list, a whole new set of questions come to the fore.

    The lineup of speakers at next week’s Republican National Convention will include

    Donald Trump loyalists,

    Washington outsiders,

    entrepreneurs and even

    a former “General Hospital” actor. […]


    A senior Trump official said the “impressive lineup” represents a “cross-section of real people facing the same challenges as every American household.”

    I suppose “impressive” is a subjective term.


    There’s plenty to chew on here. The full list of speakers, for example, includes

    Newt Gingrich and

    Chris Christie,

    which sure does make it seem as if Indiana Gov. Mike Pence (R) will be Trump’s running mate.


    We can also note that six people with the last name Trump –

    the candidate, his wife, and four of his kids – will deliver remarks at the convention,

    which means the number of Trumps will match the number of sitting senators who’ll address the GOP delegates.


    It’s also genuinely extraordinary that Republicans have decided the first night of their convention should have a “Benghazi focus,” Benghazi!

    even after all of the party’s – and Trump’s – ridiculous conspiracy theories about the deadly 2012 attack have been discredited.


    We could also note that

    there are five living former GOP presidential nominees – including two former presidents – and four of them have said they will neither speak to nor attend the party’s gathering.

    (Bob Dole is the exception, announcing in May he plans to go.)


    But even if we put all of that aside for a moment, we’re left with a different kind of problem: Trump promised us a powerful all-star lineup, and he clearly isn’t delivering one.

    In early June, the presumptive GOP nominee said this year’s Republican convention is going to be “a little different,” because he intended to spotlight cultural figures, most notably sports “champions,” not just politicians.


    And yet, here we are. The AP report noted this morning,

    “Noticeably absent from a speaker list obtained by The Associated Press early Thursday are many athletes or A-List celebrities that Trump’s team long suggested would help make his presidential nominating convention unlike any other.”

    Tim Tebow, who was a backup on several NFL teams before quietly exiting the league a few years ago, will apparently be on hand, along with

    former underwear model Antonio Sabato Jr.

    professional golfer Natalie Gulbis.

    No, it isn't.

    There is not a single shred of scientific evidence that vaccines cause autism.

    The original claim was made by a doctor paid to say something bad about vaccines by a lawyer for a lawsuit. The doctor eventually had his license to practice medicine pulled over it, because the doctor review panel found him to be dishonest and unethical.

    If you like, I can provide you with a rather large amount of actual good science on the subject.

    You might want to include the dates of all those Twitter tweets. I know you think it doesn't make a difference, but I think it does.
    You have come out and stated that you have only a passing commitment to intellectual honesty.

    Why should I care what you say you think?

    How can I trust that you are telling me the truth, or care about what the truth is?

    The dates are far less relevant than the fact that they were made in the first place.

    radioactive Trash Effect

    Republican Convention finds itself in need of a bailout

    The target was to raise $64 million, but GOP organizers, spurned by corporate allies, are far short of their goal. Politico reported yesterday that Republican National Convention officials have turned to billionaire casino mogul Sheldon Adelson, looking for a $6 million bailout.

    In a letter addressed to the Adelsons, obtained by POLITICO, the Cleveland 2016 Host Committee revealed the names of more than two dozen prominent corporations and individuals who have reneged on a collective $8.1 million in pledged donations.


    The letter represents the most public acknowledgement to date that Donald Trump has directly cost convention organizers millions of fundraising dollars.

    The letter, dated Tuesday, said “negative publicity” surrounding Trump led a variety of sponsors to back out from their financial commitments to the convention.


    Indeed, the do ent named names: FedEx, Pepsi, and others planned to make six- and seven-figure contributions, only to change their minds because of Trump.

    Remember when RNC officials insisted Trump wouldn’t cost the party major donors? Those assurances now look kind of silly.

    So, what happens now? There’s little doubt that Adelson could bail out the convention – as the Politico report added, he’s worth an estimated $25 billion. The primary question is whether or not he will get his checkbook.

    Keep in mind, Adelson is a longtime fan of Newt Gingrich, who appears to have been passed over for the party’s vice presidential nomination. It makes the Republican pitch that much more difficult: “Yeah, sorry your guy didn’t make the ticket, but would you give us $6 million anyway?”

    And then, of course, there’s the second question: what will Republicans do if Adelson says no?

    That VP pick is a vanilla choice and a ty one at that. Either Trump is trying to lose or no one reputable wanted to be his VP so he had to scrape the bottom of the barrel with Newt, Christie and Pence.

    Pence is the safe pick to bring in the conservatives and probably influenced by Mannafort. I would have preferred Newt - I have doubts about Pence - wish-washy, not glib like Newt and not long time friends like Christy and Newt. But Newt is old and Pence is only 59. Also Newt and Christie will still help Trump in some other capacity while Pence would go back to running for governor - so no real "loss."

    Mike Pence gained national attention hating gays, but became governor attacking Planned Parenthood

    Abortion-rights advocates and abortion-rights opponents don’t see eye to eye on much, but they do agree on this: Nobody hates Planned Parenthood quite as much as Mike Pence.

    The Indiana Republican is on a one-man crusade to deny all federal funding to the group — not just the money it gets for reproductive health and family planning services, but every penny it gets for anything. [...]

    This week, Pence went even further, introducing an amendment to the continuing resolution that would strip Planned Parenthood — and Planned Parenthood alone — of all federal funding.

    Republican Gov. Mike Pence signed a bill into law Thursday making Indiana the second state to ban abortions because of fetal genetic abnormalities such as Down syndrome. [...]

    The bill has been criticized by a national group of gynecologists and several female Republican members of the GOP-dominated Indiana Legislature, who say it goes too far in telling women what they can and can't do.

    That’s Mike Pence. The most radical point of the anti-choice moment.

    http://www.dailykos.com/story/2016/0...28Daily+Kos%29

    Petty Pence epitomizes what is one of the nastiest of the nasty red states.

    Trash makes wonderful choice to pander to the LGBTQ haters, the War on (poor) Women, Christian Taliban.

     Mike Pence Is a Smooth-Talking Todd Akin

    The guy who led the crusade against Planned Parenthood and signed anti-abortion laws will drive more women to Hillary Clinton.

    There had been lots of reporting that he wanted Newt Gingrich (why not, God, why not? and, despite New Jersey Governor Chris Christie’s legal baggage (plus Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner’s mortal grudge against Christie for sending his father to jail), it seemed like Trump found in Christie a kindred soul/bully as well. But he was by most accounts scheduled to introduce the white-haired establishment favorite, Mike Pence, at an event in Trump Tower on Friday.

    If Trump thinks he’s getting a running mate who can appeal to the center and swing voters, he’s wrong about that. Pence is so far right when it comes to women’s and LGBT issues, he makes Trump look like a Democrat. Frankly, he’s a smooth-talking Todd Akin.

     In Congress, Pence co-sponsored a bill that would have redefined rape and limited federal funding for abortion to women who suffered “forcible rape”—what Akin famously described as “legitimate rape”

    when he doomed his 2012 Senate bill. Pence is also the guy who began the GOP’s ugly and so far unsuccessful crusade to defund Planned Parenthood, back in 2007.

    “He’s the only one I know of who has been so completely obsessed with Planned Parenthood,”

    Planned Parenthood president Cecile Richards
    said back then. “This just seems to be an enormous focus of his.” Of course, Pence got more company in the Tea Party Congress of 2011, and that year

    he
    threatened to shut down the government over continued Planned Parenthood funding.

    Since becoming governor in 2013,

    Pence has signed various anti-abortion bills and succeeded in defunding Planned Parenthood in his state.

    That helped lead to a devastating resurgence of HIV/AIDS, since Planned Parenthood was one of a few providers of HIV testing in the state.

    Also, Trump has promised to punish women for getting abortions (and then flip-flopped); Pence has actually done so. I

    n Indianapolis, 30-year-old Purvi Patel was prosecuted for using the pills doctors prescribe for early pregnancy termination allegedly later in her term. Her conviction is being appealed.

    Pence is an odd choice, for many reasons:

    He’s got low approval ratings in his home state and faces a tough reelection battle.

    He supports free trade and opposes Trump’s Muslim ban.

    The Indiana governor endorsed Texas Senator Ted Cruz just before the state’s crucial primary in May,

    but said wishy-washy nice things about Trump, too. When Trump crushed Cruz in Indiana, Pence got on the Trump train. He was ready to move up front and sit alongside the leader.
