Trump Turns Birther On Cruz!

Donald Trump will go after Ted Cruz.

The friendly rivalry is going to get ugly now that the junk food media told the viewers that Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) is leading in one poll. Matter of fact, we've heard this before. When the candidate soars past Donald Trump, the junk food media says that this could spell trouble for Trump.

Cruz has soared to a 10 point lead against Trump according to one Iowa poll.

Trump usually ignores the noise and continues on with even more heated rhetoric.

Trump has been very "easy" on Cruz. Now that the Des Moines Register said that Trump tumbled to second place in the latest poll, Trump vowed to take Cruz down.

Trump banned the Des Moines Register after an editorial slammed the candidate's bid for president.

Trump said that this is only one poll and it's bias against him. Also Trump went after Cruz for not supporting ethanol subsidies in the state. Iowa is highly engaged in tax credits for green energy.

Trump will go after Cruz's record as an unaccomplished lawmaker who steals the spotlight. Trump will say that Washington gridlock is why Americans hate politicians. That's going to be the dig at Cruz because he lead the 2013 government shutdown.

Trump said that he has "far better judgement" than Cruz.

Tuesday's debate will have Trump in the middle while it's still a battle between Cruz, Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL), and Ben Carson for who can be the closest to attack him. Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) will likely be sent to the second tier debate.

Christie was endorsed by New Hampshire Union Leader. He is surging toward second place knocking down Rubio, Cruz, John Kasich and Jeb Bush.

Cruz was caught on tape knocking on Trump and Ben Carson for being just hype. He said that he will kill them with kindness. He said he will hug them out. Trump decided to take the gloves off.

Of course, Trump will go back to the dog whistle politics when he takes on Cruz. He will restart the birther controversy. Our neighbor to the north has been not often mentioned by Republicans when questioning Cruz's citizenship. Cruz is an American citizen but born in Canada. He was living in Canada for a few years of his life. His mom was on a travel visa and held duel citizenship.

Now as you remember, Trump wasn't easy on President Barack Obama. He demanded that the president showed his long form birth certificate. He pressured the president constantly on this.

In April 2011, the president went ahead and released the long form birth certificate. Obama also went after Trump at the Correspondent's Dinner. In May 2011, when The Celebrity Apprentice was holding its season finale, it was interrupted by the news that President Barack Obama the U.S. Special Operatives killed Osama bin Laden. The president spurned Trump many times. Trump banned the president from his properties.

Cruz is the son of a Cuban man and an American mother. He was born in Canada and holds duel citizenship with both countries.

That stuff will be used in this campaign not only by Trump but the birthers crowd like Orly Taitz and James David Manning.

Crime Is Colorless Unless The Junk Food Media Runs The Scary Black Mugshots!

mug
The left exposes a newspaper's yellow journalism. These are the images of men who were accused of criminal acts. Each of these individuals are criminals but who will the racist right look at as more dangerous?

The Raw Story and the blog SoLetsTalkAbout notes the junk food media's profile of White and Black criminals. NO APRIL FOOLS JOKE, it's real.

In Cedar Rapids, The Gazette had to do some explaining. The online website ran two stories about criminal behavior. The difference in between the stories is race. What's surprising is the pictures of the White suspects came from their yearbook and the pictures of the Black suspects were simply mugshots from the county lockup.

The images used of Ross Lembeck, Seth Gross and Logan Ryan, all 19, were taken from the freshman yearbook. All the boys were wearing matching ties.

While the other images used, Kwain E. Crawford, 36; Milton Whitehead, 50; Quentin D.W. Eatman, 24; and Curtis J. Johnson, 29 in same online publication were just that. Those menacing mugs.
image
The racist right never ceases to amaze me.
Many pointed out that this discrepancy of images gives the reader the impression that these three men were upstanding citizens who just made a mistake. The other images gives the reader the impression they're good for nothing NIGGERS or insert Obama.

This went viral.

The Gazette endorsed perennial loser Mitt Romney for president. Kind of tells you what the publication's political views and how they view criminal acts by people of color.

The Iowa newspaper scrubbed from its website the distinguished images of three University of Iowa wrestlers accused of robbery.

So I am guessing the perception of images gives the media a reason. The same reason to think Michael Brown and Trayvon Martin deserve their deaths at the hands of either the law or a self righteous vigilante.

Insurgent Could Win Iowa's Open Seat!

The female version of  Stallmigo Ted Cruz (R-TX) is likely got this locked. The insurgent candidate for U.S. Senate Jodi Ernst is leading against whack politico Congressman Bruce Braley (D-IA). The insurgent candidate (left) waves to supporters with that idiotic former governor of Alaska (center).

The Des Moines Register has the insurgent candidate Jodi Ernst leading against Democratic Representative Bruce Braley (D-IA) in the fight for the U.S. Senate open seat in Iowa.

The insurgent could wake up an already dysfunctional Republican Party.

Obviously, the bets are likely a Republican takeover in the U.S. Senate. The Republicans practically dominated the media with their anti-Obama stance. Now that they've gotten an advantage in the polls, does it mean that the tides turn.

Republicans are hoping that Blacks, Hispanics, young voters, women and first time voters sit this out.

They want the Democrats strongest supporters to be at home. That's why they've passed these ridiculous voter identification laws, pull back early voting and the Supreme Court dissolves a portion of the Voting Rights Act.

Now Republicans are hoping that with a full Congress, they could repeal Patient Protection and Affordable Healthcare Act (aka Obamacare).

The Des Moines Register tells that Ernst got a 7-point lead. They added that this news buoys the GOP's hope that an Iowa victory will be the tipping point to a Republican takeover of the U.S. Senate.

Ernst, a state senator and military leader, enjoys 51 percent support among likely voters. That's a majority, and it's her biggest lead in the three Iowa Polls conducted this fall. Braley, a congressman and trial lawyer, gets 44 percent, according to The Des Moines Register's final Iowa Poll before Tuesday's election.

It's hard to see much in these poll results that Braley could capitalize on to build a groundswell, Selzer said. "None of this looks good for him," she said.
Democrats rally around former president Bill Clinton. Representative Bruce Braley (D-IA) hopes a Clinton could save his dragging campaign. They know President Barack Obama is too toxic for their campaigns. Democrats finally realized that Obama's race contributes to their dragging polls. And of course, those who sit out Midterms hurt also.
Braley has lost vote share since an early October Iowa Poll (he dropped from 46 percent to 44 percent) while Ernst has increased her share (from 47 percent to 51 percent now).

Another sign of trouble: Braley is losing by 3 points in his home congressional district in left-leaning northeast Iowa. In the early October poll, he was up by 1 point there.

Senator Harry Reid (D-NV) (Majority Leader) has gotten spooked by this news. He's hoping that last minute outreach could pull Braley back from disaster.

The news will thrill Republican activists nationwide, who are counting on Iowa as an anchor for regaining the majority in the U.S. Senate. On Saturday, a progressive group organized a conference call with Majority Leader Harry Reid to urge Iowa Democrats "to double down and save the Senate."

"If we win Iowa, we're going to do just fine," he said. "Iowa is critical, there's no other way to say it."

If Republicans control the Senate, Reid said, "think of what that would mean for our country."

What's going on in my opinion! Democrats are scrambled like eggs. They're getting cooked.

Despite the major accomplishments, the American public is short-term memory on this.

Ernst by my standings is leading by three points in my calculations of this U.S. Senate Race.

Calling it LEAN REPUBLICAN. The showdown for the Hawkeye.
