poor thing. president obama is not yet playing the game that s been given to him. that s the oddity here. last night, there were a lot of wealthy people at carnegie hall, captains of industry, sponsor the thing, buy boxes. rattle the jewelry. you cannot talk to them about the budget and deficit longer than two minutes when inevitably, you have to widen the revenue stream. in other words, the bush tax cuts, you have to pull them back. they re all willing to put some jewelry in the collection plate. let s move to the next story. in the last month, new polling shows donald trump has nearly doubled his polling among republican voters. trump is tied with mike hug ca bee for the top spot at 19%, a nine point jump from march. the gop levels out when trump and michelle bachmann are left off the list.รง
