I think it's the opposite. Anyone will crush Trump.

He will not stand up to the serious scrutiny that will come his way in a general election. He's mostly winning these primaries with percentages in the 30s. Republican voters are not going to rally behind him. Hillary is getting 80% of the black vote in the dem primaries. Those two stats alone doom Trump.


Trump is slightly behind Hillary in the National polls. He hasnt even begun attacking Hillary yet. Once the repubz come to grips they will circle around Donald. Nobody wants Hillary. Who  represents Washington/ the establishment/same ole politics better than the spineless wonder??? Most people are rushing to the polls because they want something different. Once the national campaign begins, Trump will garner more diverse support. Hillary will lose. Only way she doesnt is if the repubz dont come out to vote in November.

Trump can campaign against Hillary and the media and will do well.

Go watch his speech from last night. Completely different tone and demeanor. Its going to be an interesting race and I fully expect for him to beat Hillary if he is the nominee.

I think the questions that need to be answered are in regards to Izzy's commitment to a tour.
Was he offered back in the band? Does he just want to tour? Did he agree and something has changed?  Or does he want to have his cake and eat it too(the occasional appearance but on his terms)? Does he want to write with the band? Basically...Izzy....what do you want! ? And that is an important factor because everything will fall into place after that question is answered. It all starts with Izzy and his commitment.


Its disturbing that they all collectively cant even execute a layup. I blame the "camps". I'm tired of hearing that word.

There are no need for camps. All they needed to do was get in a room and hammer out all the musical and touring details/expectations/wants and needs themselves. If they were all on board after that conversation then they could move forward with a tour. If they dont make it out of that room in agreement then theres no reason to move fwd. It will be too spotty and frustrating like everything always is with this band. As it is right now! When the money flows in they can then pay their "camps" on their own dime. Basically paying them to stfu and stay out of everything.

So what is everyone's take on the aftermath of Justice Scalia's death?

The left is saying, nominating a justice is the President's job and Scalia should be replaced as soon as possible.   If President Obama chooses his replacement, he will almost certainly be far to the left of Scalia, who was probably the most conservative vote on the Supreme Court.

The right is saying that the nomination should not occur until after the election and be done by the next President.    They are obviously banking on a Republican winning the nod, but if it were to be Sanders, he would clearly nominate someone more progressive than Obama would.

I don't see any reason why President Obama should not do the job he was elected to do and fill the vacancy on the court.    Republicans are playing dirty politics here in basically refusing to approve anyone the President nominates.   

This is why the election matters and why I will never vote Republican.    The judges that a right wing President choose will set this country back on issues like women's health, gay rights, campaign finance, etc.


congress should consider Obamas view of this issue circa 2006.........Obama: "As we all know, there has been a lot of discussion in the country about how the Senate should approach this confirmation process. There are some who believe that the President, having won the election, should have complete authority to appoint his nominee and the Senate should only examine whether the Justice is intellectually capable and an all-around good guy; that once you get beyond intellect and personal character, there should be no further question as to whether the judge should be confirmed. I disagree with this view. I believe firmly that the Constitution calls for the Senate to advise and consent. I believe it calls for meaningful advice and consent and that includes an examination of a judge’s philosophy, ideology, and record. [Congressional Record]" He then urged all senators to reject Alito's nomination.

I'd start by checking on Discogs to see if there is anything to tell it apart like the Matrix/Runouts near the label or any other unique identifiers.  Might not help if the bootlegs are really detailed rip-offs, but usually it is enough to tell the difference.  It should definitely help in telling you the difference between reprints/reissues vs. original pressings.

thank you
