Here are a few national and Virginia news headlines, political and otherwise, for Sunday, March 6. Also check out the Saturday Night Live “ad” for Donald Trump.
- Double wins boost Cruz; Clinton maintains delegate lead (“Trump victorious in La. and Ky. as Rubio withers”)
- The Democrats’ adult campaign (The contrast between the two parties has never been clearer. Can you even IMAGINE Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton boasting of their sexual prowess, crudely insulting each other, talking about women and disabled people and immigrants the way the Republicans do??? Denying climate science? Of course not.)
- This is how the GOP imploded: The real story behind the conservative crack-up, and the creation of Donald Trump (“Donald Trump used right-wing rhetoric to steal the conservative base. But this crack-up has been a long time coming”)
- The GOP Is Still Afraid to Stand Up to Trump (“The party’s response to Trump’s fascism and bigotry continues to be lacking.”)
- Ted Cruz’s Great Night Is Great News for Donald Trump (“Cruz’s success may also mean that the GOP establishment, which despises the Texas senator, will not go all out to stop Trump.”)
- Sanders lives to fight another day (“The Vermont senator racks up wins in Kansas and Nebraska, but his path to the nomination has dramatically narrowed.”)
- Trump savages Rubio at Florida rally (I do agree with Trump on one thing: Rubio is truly pitiful.)
- SNL slams Donald Trump with warm and fuzzy Klan and Nazi ‘Racists for Trump’ ad
- Schapiro: Republicans tried to block historic primary turnout (“Virginia Republicans are crowing about the big turnout in their presidential primary. They seem to have forgotten that’s the last thing they had in mind.”)
- In Va., lawmakers want to tighten stance on illegal immigration (More veto bait.)
- McClellan: Virginia takes steps to ease domestic violence epidemic
- GOP’s Vogel running for lieutenant governor (Just what Virginia needs, the transvaginal ultrasound extremist as our LG. No thanks!)
