    Then explain Rick Perry.

    Or Louie Gohmert, or Sheila Jackson Lee, or Dan Patrick, or Aggies, or Ken Paxton, or the highway layout around Austin, or the popularity of fast-food fried "catfish", or.....

    Buck, if you attack any form of fried catfish, you may have crossed a line.

    Bobby, bobby, bobby, note the qualifier "fast-food" and the quotes around "catfish".

    Just 'cause Sonic says it's "catfish", or Golden Corral lets you eat all you want, it just doesn't make it real fish. You're eating frozen mudfish from a pond of pigsh!t in Southeast Asia.

    I was about to say sorry for getting off topic in the D/D, but then I figured "frozen mudfish from a pond of pigsh!t" is pretty appropriate given the current circumstances.

    It was a tiny Christian liberal arts school ding bat...that from no where has now garnered massive financial support from the city's wealthiest individuals. Sorry you were rejected from HBU...but time to move on with life...

    Lindsey Graham is floating the idea today that the Republican party may need to unify behind Ted Cruz to stop Donald Trump.

    Even after at least two tries by the establishment to go "all-in" behind Marco Rubio, he has not gained any real traction. Especially in the Senate, Cruz is not well liked, but he is a reasonable man with intelligence, grace and class, whose policy positions are consistent with what the vast majority of Republican officeholders at least profess to support, during their campaigns if not when it it time to vote.

    Of course for this to actually work, Rubio will need to get out pretty quick and maybe Kasich as well. Surely Carson is close to getting out anyway.

    In any case, for anyone who is wondering what path Ted Cruz has to win the Republican nomination, here it is.

    Graham can say that all he wants, but the majority of the Republican establishment is never going to rally around Ted Cruz.

    Until today you were probably just as confident that Lindsey Graham would never rally around Ted Cruz.

    If Lindsey Graham is floating this trial balloon, it is almost certainly not an uncoordinated or unplanned action. It will be interesting to see which establishment Republican chimes in next and what that person specifically has to say about this.
