In the end, it's going to be Tubby, Christie, and Giuliani sitting by themselves in a leaky rowboat.
Someone pull the plug on this clown show. |

The lever will be pulled on Nov 8, and hopefully we get to watch them circling the drain. |

Susana Martinez: NAY (was UNDECIDED)
The New Mexico governor has responded to the video of Trump bragging about sexually assaulting women with disgust. “That’s why I have withheld my support from the very beginning, and will not support him now.” |

Condoleezza Rice: NAY (was ABSTAIN)
George W. Bush’s secretary of state blasted Trump in a Facebook statement and called on him to step down: “Enough! Donald Trump should not be President. He should withdraw. As a Republican, I hope to support someone who has the dignity and stature to run for the highest office in the greatest democracy on earth.” (October 8, 2016) |

Paul Ryan
How long before Kellyanne Conway leaves? She's smart enough to know this is a dumpster fire sliding down a hill toward a tank of sharks. |

Why do you care? It's over, isn't it? |

I care because we're rooting for the sharks to eat those who supported and enable Trump. In case you haven't noticed, Trump is allowing the Senate to flip to Democratic control and putting the House in play. That's why it matters and we care: |

Why keep watching? Storytelling 101. Because we need the catharsis of watching the villain be justly destroyed in the end.

Another paper in a staunchly Repub. area endorsing HRC:
http://www.usnews.com/news/articles/2016-10-12/salt-lake-tribune-endorses-hillary-clinton "Hillary Clinton got a double boost Wednesday morning from an unlike source: Utah. Not only did a poll show the Democratic nominee tied with Donald Trump in the ruby-red state, but Utah's biggest newspaper, the Salt Lake Tribune, endorsed Clinton. In an editorial that slammed Trump as "a total disgrace" and took Clinton to task for her email server and secrecy, the paper said the "eminently qualified" Clinton had earned their endorsement." |

oh my, even Foreign Policy magazine has endorsed hrc:
http://foreignpolicy.com/2016/10/09/foreign-policy-endorses-hillary-clinton-for-president-of-the-united-states/ "In the nearly half-century history of Foreign Policy, the editors of this publication have never endorsed a candidate for political office. We cherish and fiercely protect this publication’s independence and its reputation for objectivity, and we deeply value our relationship with all of our readers, regardless of political orientation. It is for all these reasons that FP’s editors are now breaking with tradition to endorse Hillary Clinton for the next president of the United States. Our readers depend on FP for insight and analysis into issues of national security and foreign policy. We feel that our obligation to our readers thus extends now to making clear the great magnitude of the threat that a Donald Trump presidency would pose to the United States. " OUCH! |

| Nebraska senator Deb Fisher came back and reendorsed Trump, though! We could do this for another month, sure. What will she do when audio of Trump using the N word gets leaked, I wonder? |

I don't understand how these people's supporters can continue to support wishy washy people. What does it say about your integrity when you throw your hat whichever way the wind is blowing? |

Unfortunately the NYT Election Forecast still has Utah solidly red. |
