Ides thoughts

Actually, the primaries were on March 16th, but for Marco Rubio it was definitely a Caesarian moment.  Florida repudiated its supposed favorite son and instead chose The Donald in its winner take all primary.  The Marcobot ended his run and will probably retire to a wingnut welfare position at Faux News where he can snipe at Trump until the convention.  John Kasich is spinning his win in Ohio as a game changer.   Since his only win so far is in his home state, it seems unlikely he will be going anywhere else with any momentum.  The biggest winner last night was Hillary who likely ended Bernie's chances at the nomination.  He vowed to fight on if for no other reason than to consolidate the left of the party as a force to counterbalance Clinton's reliance on corporate and wall street money.  While there is still plenty that can happen between now and the party conventions it is increasingly looking like a Clinton vs. Trump fall campaign.  Two flawed candidates who could entice a third party candidate to come out.  It will be interesting, to say the least.
