Election night discussion thread

by — ,

I’ll try to offer some commentary throughout the evening, but the real fun will be in the comment thread….

Lil’ Marco has “suspended” his campaign after losing his home state of Florida.

What’s with this “We are ‘suspending’ the campaign” bullshit. “We” are not. You (singular) are. “Suspend” is a weasel word. Why can’t these weasels tell it like it is: “I’m quitting”, “I am dropping out of the race”, “I surrender to Mr. Drumpf”.

Oh…that’s right. They’re fucking weasels.

7:48: While Cruz is giving his “victory” speech, CNN updates the vote totals and Cruz goes from 1st place to 2nd place.

8:40 Carl Ballard commentary on the GOP primary: [fart noises]
