Scarborough: Independent Conservative Candidate With Lots of Cash to Enter 2016 Race

“I had multiple sources telling me last night that an independent with a the backing of a lot of Republican money is going to launch today. (…) I could be wrong… but several good sources told me that people– Republicans from let’s just say Never-Trump-land– found somebody and they’re going to put good money behind him.”

Joe's young ward, Mika kind of smirked at that.  Or was he passing gas?

At this point, I think any such candidate would have to be a write-in -- a steep uphill battle, but oddly  possible given the horridity of the two major party candidates.

Then again, if Trump ever pulls out of the race for any reason (a huge bribe sounds nice...) then this supposed candidate could be named as a replacement....

That's called "hearing voices," Joe.  There's medication for that, y'know.

Sigh.  Well, short-lived dreams are still dreams, aren't they?

This is just the Hillarite Leftist mediuh trying to seal the deal...they think their old cow can do it, but they want insurance.

A write-in is NOT gonna work.  Too many voters are as clueless as these two candidates...the reflexively vote D or R with no thought or consideration.  Even in 1992, given the horrific choice between Mister Bland Insider, G.H.W. Bush, and the obviously criminal Arkansas governor...with Ross Perot running, someone who WAS a competent businessman and who DID have an articulated plan...even then, the vote was split in such a way that Bubba won with a 42-percent plurality.

This is what they want.  VICTORY.  They care not how; it's all about cheering for the Home Team.

Look.  I'm not arguing for or against.  We ARE gonna get Hillarized, unless God strikes her dead.  But this is the press pool going in for another round of urination into the political well.
