DONALD TRUMP INCREASES POLL RATINGS; ALL GOP CANDIDATES BUT CARLY FIORINA WITHDRAW!

WASHINGTON, D.C. (The Adobo Chronicles® ) – The Republican Party’s worst nightmare just happened.

After the first GOP presidential debate held last Thursday, everybody expected Donald Trump’s poll ratings to decline significantly, especially after that contentious exchange with FOX News moderator Megyn Kelly.

But newly-released national polls show Trump gaining yet another point, leading the GOP pack with 23%. That’s 10 percentage points ahead of his closest rival Ted Cruz.

Realizing they can’t possibly compete with Trump, all the other Republicans in the contest withdrew their candidacy, except for Carly Fiorina.

The only woman GOP presidential candidate rated well in last week’s debates, even if she didn’t make it to the top ten candidates that participated in the main event.

“I may have been included in the second-tier of GOP candidates but I have proven that I am the candidate who could beat Hillary Clinton.  After all, we are both women,” Fiorina said.

The former CEO of Hewlett-Packard believes that Trump’s handling of Kelly during debate night and in the days that followed, have turned off women voters, and that “this is where I come in, as a woman.”

Fiorina also said that if she is named the Republican nominee for president, she would be the best candidate, even in a three-way contest should Trump decide to run as an Independent.

Will 2016 be America’s “Year of the Woman?”

 

 

 

PRIVATE CARS TO STAGE WEEKLY CRITICAL MASS PROTESTS IN STREETS OF SAN FRANCISCO

CaptureSAN FRANCISCO, California (The Adobo Chronicles® ) – The City of San Francisco has waged an all-our war against private motorists.

First, San Francisco painted the middle lanes of its main streets red to indicate that they were for buses and taxis only.  Next, the city painted the curb-side lanes on either direction green to indicate they were for bicycles only.  Now, private car drivers, including ride sharing drivers from Uber and Lyft,  can’t turn left or right on Market Street.

Well, private car owners have just about had it.

Remember Critical Mass?  It is a mass bicycle ride that takes place on the last Friday of each month in San Francisco. It is a form of protest to uphold bicyclists’ rights.

Beginning next week, private car owners, joined by Uber and Lyft drivers, will stage their own critical mass, not just once a month but every week, on Mondays.  It is their way of protesting the fact that they are slowly but surely being phased out of San Francisco’s streets.

Like the bicycle critical mass, the motorists will drive around city streets, en masse, with no specific destination.  Their intention is to clog the streets and create a traffic nightmare for buses, taxis and bicycles, not to mention a big headache for the city’s bureaucrats.

“It is time we take the power away from bicyclists and fight for our own rights,” an Uber motorist said. “Cyclists don’t need to get a license or pay taxes and fees like we do, so why are we being denied use of the streets that are paid for by our dollars?” he added.
