If you were a wagering type, who would you bet will be our opponent in November?

Donald Trump's field director resigns

Donald Trump's national field director resigned Monday amid a staff shakeup that put Scott Walker's former campaign manager in charge of the campaign's ground operation.

Stuart Jolly, the national field director, tendered his resignation to Trump, two days after Trump met with senior staff and officially elevated Trump's recently-hired national political director Rick Wiley above Jolly.

"I left. I wasn't pushed, I wasn't shoved, I wasn't asked to leave," Jolly told CNN Monday in a phone interview.

Jolly was a longtime loyalist to Trump's campaign manager Corey Lewandowski, and Jolly's departure shrinks the circle of loyal aides Lewandowski has around him as Paul Manafort, Trump's recent hire to manage the convention strategy, gains more clout in the Trump campaign.

The republicans have not taken the White House without a Bush on the ticket since 1972. You can look it up.

...but I think not.

OTOH, the party-in-the-White House has held the presidency for 3 consecutive terms once since FDR/Truman. My sense is that this will be the second time.
