Rove stated Mr. Trump was another Todd Akin. That is a very bad decision by Rove. Rove is not a candidate and doesn't respect the office. But. I suppose that is obvious in his six testimonies before the Plame Grand Jury before he stopped lying under oath.

In an exclusive interview (click here) with Breitbart News, GOP frontrunner Donald Trump doubled down on his criticisms of former Bush advisor Karl Rove, who called for repealing the Second Amendment and declared Trump was a “complete idiot.”
“Karl Rove spent $430 million dollars on various campaigns last cycle. Didn’t win one. Which is pretty hard to do,” Trump said. “But Karl Rove spent $430 million dollars and didn’t win one race, and I think that’s pretty sad, and I can’t imagine how anybody would listen to him.”
Trump leveled the same accusation on Twitter at Rove days earlier. Rove responded in a Wall Street Journal op-ed:...
Rove volunteers with GPS. So, how do you make your money Mr. Rove, by investing in GOP legislated projects? Karl doesn't like Senator Cruz. Wow.

Cruz also claims that in 2009, (click here) as he considered a run for Texas Attorney General, he secured an endorsement from former President George H.W. Bush – only to have Rove push Cruz to downplay the senior Bush’s support.
“He suggested that the elder Bush was too old to have good judgment anymore”, Cruz wrote. “It was hard to imagine that Bush 41 was unaware of the consternation that his endorsement would cause Rove”.
“I am accustomed to being criticized for others’ political benefit, but am disappointed in how Senator Cruz decided to raise the name of one of the finest presidents our country has ever known, President George H.W. Bush“.
At the time, Cruz reportedly wrote, Rove was raising money for the younger Bush’s presidential library.
The spat escalated late Sunday when Cruz released an email exchange with Rove from 2009 that supports parts of the Cruz version, though not the assertion that Rove yelled at him or questioned the elder Bush’s judgment....
The reason Donald Trump is first in the country as a GOP nominee is because of his obvious virgin status as a politician, he represents the little guy and he has NO CRONIES.

...This is the first national poll (click here) showing Trump leading the Republican field. He’s previously come second and third in national polls.
Ted Nugent is #TeamTrump
Trump defenders are a special bunch. Right-wing rocker, Ted Nugent, has unsurprisingly joined #TeamTrump. Nugent wrote in a WorldNetDaily op-ed that Trump deserved the Medal of Freedom for speaking out against “the professional political punks in D.C.”:
Donald Trump’s message sings to Americans because he doesn’t play politically correct brain-dead games. He calls them like he sees them. That’s refreshing to millions of Americans who believe political correctness is a public cancer that has eroded free speech and everything else good about America....
Here is an example of the little people:

To the Editor:
Considering the formidable nature of the current field, what are we to make of Donald Trump reaching a lofty second in a recent poll among GOP presidential candidates in New Hampshire? Granted, polls can be perfidious, but still, Mr. Trump’s early taste of glory suggests he actually appeals to the intellect in a state which reveres lucid thinking, recognizes sound logic and acknowledges penetrating insight.
Or perhaps the candidate takes his exalted place among this pantheon of leaders because he is one of those who refreshingly “speaks his mind” — no matter what it is that lurks therein — an approach that seems to be all the rage among candidates this season.
There is, however, a measure of hope, especially if one considers that this builder of mighty casinos might be riding high simply because New Hampshire voters really do have a wicked sense of humor.

Personally, I think Donald Trump likes women. I also believe he respects them. His interview with Katie the other day was a man that took her seriously and even allowed some advise in asking questions.
The Miss USA and Miss Universe Pageant are examples of opportunities for women based on their beauty, brains and talents. I suppose some could say it is a cattle call, but, it is a legitimate way for women, even in 2015, to achieve a college education and map a career. It is that reason the beauty pageants still stand. If the pageants lost their legitimacy it would be all over, but, the opportunities are still there after decades of competition.
So, the Akin comment doesn't come close. I doubt the pageants require birth control.
And I doubt they require contestants to sign a plead to not raise taxes.
