Quote:The pledge that Republican candidates signed early in the presidential primary season, promising to support the eventual nominee if they lose, looks increasingly likes a suicide pact. The three remaining candidates for the Republican presidential nomination who are not named Donald Trump have inched up to the line suggesting that the mercurial billionaire is so wildly unsuited to be president that they would not support him in a general election.

Quote:The Club for Growth isn’t letting up in a heavy advertising campaign aimed at taking down Donald Trump, the front-runner for the Republican presidential nomination. The group is spending $2 million on ads in Florida, Illinois and Missouri that target Trump's liberal record. “He's not really a conservative,” Club For Growth President David McIntosh said. “He'll tell what he wants you to hear, and who knows what he'd do if he got into office.” McIntosh also pushed back against Trump's comment that the group asked the billionaire businessman for $1 million last summer.

Quote:The melodrama has pushed the site, a far-right-wing favorite that often angers mainstream conservatives, into the larger consciousness of the nation and turned it onto the latest flash point in an unpredictable and tumultuous presidential campaign. The central player in the soap opera, Breitbart reporter Michelle Fields, resigned on Monday, saying in an interview with The Washington Post that she thought the site was more interested in shielding Donald Trump than in supporting her assertion that the Republican front-runner’s campaign manager manhandled her at a campaign event. “I don’t think they took my side,” Fields said. “They were protecting Trump more than me.”

Quote:The day after the Republican debate, the cascade of resignations began. Kurt Bardella, a former congressional aide who served as the site’s spokesman, quit Friday. “I just couldn’t represent them anymore in good conscience,” Bardella said in an interview Monday. “I didn’t sign on to be a member of the de facto Donald Trump super PAC and, in this case, their allegiance to Trump took priority over loyalty to their own reporter.” Other resignations would follow in the coming days: Fields’s, and those of reporters Ben Shapiro, Jordan Schachtel and Jarrett Stepman.

Quote:The Drudge Report has aggressively portrayed Ted Cruz’s sweep of all the delegates from Colorado’s Republican convention as a corrupt power grab. The site named for Matt Drudge, who broke the story of Bill Clinton’s affair with Monica Lewinsky and still runs it, links to nine stories this morning with salacious headlines about the convention. Among them: “Savage: Cruz should disavow rigged Colorado election … Buchanan: Apparatchiks thieve delegates for Ted … 1 MILLION REPUBLICANS SIDELINED … Border Patrol Agents: Colorado Voters Disenfranchised.” Keep in mind that this is three days after the Colorado convention.
