++In this morning's Townhall, a rightwing blog site, Pat argues the GOP is facing suicide or renewal. Of course, the renewal is Donald J. Trump. He points to the GOP elites trying to conspire to take him down and that they forget that the crushing defeat of Barry Goldwater only meant the death of the Rockefeller wing of the party.
++In something called the Daily Corinthian,Pat exposes the Sea Island Conspiracy which ostensibly was an AEI-sponsored conference on "Millennials--Who are they and what do they want?"
++Instead Pat writes this was a conclave of Silicon Valley types including Apple and Google with Karl Rove, Paul Ryan and Bill Kristol about how to stop Trump.
++The pale-conservative he is, Pat raises the role of Washington-based NGOs in regime change and questions why destroying our democratic process enhances democracy.
++Politico documents a Palm Beach gathering of billionaire donors meeting with Paul Ryan about how to foster a brokered convention or mount an independent candidate against Trump.
++The panic here in D.C. reached fever pitch with Lindsey Graham, a man who has endorsed JEB!, Marco and now has endorsed and is fund-raising for Ted Cruz. Hated by almost any living Republican,Ted Cruz is hailed as the only one who can beat the Donald. The problem with this little scenario is that Cruz has to win over 80% of the remaining delegates; Donald 52%.
++What is obvious in the last three days is the manner in which the GOP is totally controlled by the very wealthy and now this is so out in the open.
