Too early to tell
Well, it is too early to predict the outcome of the Republican presidential campaigns at this time. It is not even a good time to latch onto a candidate that you might think could win.
With all the polls and press predictions, one thing we know for certain: Things are not going to remain as they are presumed to be right now.
There is going to be a whole lot of shaking going on, and the one thing that is certain is the top performer in the Iowa caucus may be at the bottom of the totem pole by the time we get to the Florida elections.
Texas may be in good shape in determining the frontrunner by our primaries' being put off until April.
One thing we know for sure: As one candidate moves to the forefront, there will be many prognosticators and spokespersons who will want to pick them off so someone else can take their place.
I am of the opinion that it will not really be settled on the final candidate until the Republican National Convention, and perhaps not real clearly exhibited then.
Join me in the waiting game.

Valuable snapshots
I have been enjoying the neighborhood articles in the Denton Record-Chronicle.
Thank you to the DRC and to the UNT journalism students who have given us these nice little snapshots of our city.
Well done. Thank you.
