You have pretty low standards if you think he was pretty good...

What did he do that didn't meet your standards?

Regan is highly regarded I know that much. Surely the worst president since Nixon is G.W.Bush?

Him and Thatcher were really good pals apparently but Denise did not want a foursome!!! They even named a aircraft carrier after him good job we don't have an HMS Margaret Thatcher that would really frighten a prospective enemy off.

Trump cleared up with at least 7 states in Super Tuesday, Cruz 2 and Rubio 1. Alaska, still to be announced, is apparently very close between Trump and Cruz.

A uni professors model built in 19- apparently says Trump has a 97% chance of winning the election against Clinton, and a 99% chance against Sanders. So looks like I will be right come November time. I shan't say I told you so, but I will think it.

There are a lot of Republicans who won't vote for Trump if he gets the nomination. If the election is Trump v Clinton, then Clinton has it in the bag.

Come Election Day I will happily say I told you so. :D

Chris, if Trump doesn't win the election, you can ban me from here for a whole month. That's how confident I am of Trump winning.

Perhaps you can eat that straw hat which someone on this forum so famously said they would eat if a certain channel arrived a while back Mark.:D

Regardless of what the headlines say I don't think it's a given at all that Trump even wins the nomination. Until Trump gets above the delegate threshold he hasn't won it and the Republican party will do anything to stop him. If they reach the convention without him having secured enough delegates then they're only obliged to stick with him on the first ballot, after that it's a free for all in which case they'll rally around the most electable candidate still left in the race.

If I ban you, you won't be able to come on here and admit you were wrong ... ;)

Interesting article at fivethirtyeight, a well respected US polling site.
