Legal Insurrection’s Kemberlee Kaye was our special guest for Canto Talk last night, in which we discussed the “terrifying” and “thrilling” developments during the current presidential primary process.
We start the show by noting that I was one of the first to assert that the Sanders-Clinton contest was a lot more competitive than the press is reporting. At the time of this post, Sanders was slightly ahead with the votes numbers quite close. No matter the final result, this was not the coronation Hillary was looking for.
Kemberlee shares her punditry history, which began with a quest for pocket pies and continued with work with The Right Scoop, FreedomWorks, James O’Keefe, and Senator John Cornyn. She offers her thoughts and perspective on the potential the potential “contested” or “brokered” convention.
“I think we are going to have a contested convention. I don’t necessarily think that’s a bad thing. We have gotten use to it being a seamless process…Conventional wisdom suggests we should be lining up behind one candidate and consolidating. And that’s to give us a fundraising advantage…and to strategically begin fighting for the general election before the primaries are over.”
However, as the road to 1237 for Donald Trump or Ted Cruz and Sanders and Sanders is putting up more of a fight than anticipated, my California friends and I are looking forward to casting primary votes that may make a difference (not often the case for the Golden State).
We touch upon the robust debate between Team Trump and Team Cruz supporters, as well as the thoughtful and insightful comments we are (usually) blessed to read. (No, we do not name names.)
Please enjoy the podcast! It’s Yuuuge!!!
