The first order of business here is full disclosure…I supported Ted Cruz until the end of his campaign, and make no apologies for it.
Now I am hearing many fellow Cruz supporters mumbling about staying home on election day, which will surely hand the White House to Hitlery. I held my nose and voted for McCain because I knew Obama was trouble. I voted for Romney because I knew Obama was (is) trouble. Many others on this site and around the Internet refused to vote because McCain/Romney wasn’t their first (second, third) choice. Could it be that we’ve suffered through Obama twice because we felt that a vote for Romney was a betrayal of our core principles? If you sat 2012 out, would you go back and vote against Obama if you could?
Conservative Americans are, in my view, far more principled than their liberal counterparts, and that is admirable. How ironic though, if this adherence to our principles helped put ObaMarx in the White House twice! The game has changed. Grandpa’s Democrats no longer exist. Today’s Dems are socialists on their best day, communists on their worst…peeking through a crack in the closet door - waiting to spring out when the time is right. Given the current level of lunacy, it can’t be far off.
I voted Ted Cruz in the Michigan Primary, but now we must unite against a common enemy. The stakes are higher than ever. We can’t continue to let the progressives drag this country further into the crapper without a fight. Donald Trump is getting my vote for President. At least he has some spheres…which our side of the aisle has been lacking (with few exceptions) for a while now. I urge Cruz supporters to lick their wounds, understand what we’re up against, and join me in opposing today’s red army.
Bingo!
I agree completely.
FReeper Grampa Dave perhaps said it best:If Hiterily gets elected with enough votes in Congress, these will be the good old days.
The purists, who will stay at home because our candidate couldn't walk on water without getting the soles of his Teva's wet will have gifted us with another Clintoon pillaging. *
Frikkin’ idiots of the #NeverTrump meme. All of a sudden the #NeverForgetBenghazi takes a backseat to their MASSIVE egos.
I will never do anything directly or indirectly that helps a DemoncRat gain power.
As I have stated previously, even if Jeb! had become the Republican Nominee, I would have pulled the handle for him.
It might have taken an NFL Defensive Lineman to help me do it, but it would have had to be done.
Remember, if not for Trump, Jeb! (not Cruz) would be the Republican Nominee at this very moment.

Trump will, of course, appreciate you vote and support...
It looks as though there are several Cruz supporters in here who continue to put Trump down though...
It is time to band together against Hillary and the liberal socialists...
It’s time to stop the BS and get together.....
The only thing that anyone really needs to understand is that after spending her entire life to reach the presidency, Hillary has absolutely no intention of letting America survive her if she makes it.
To Hillary, the problem with Bill and Obama is that they haven’t moved fast enough.
I voted for Ted Cruz...
And I’ll proudly vote for Trump.
Staying home is a vote for Hillary.
[Cruz supporter]
I will hold my nose and vote for Trump. That is assuming he does NOT load his VP slot with a GOPe stooge.
However, consider this. Trying to persuade individuals to vote for a particular candidate, regardless of who that candidate is, because the are not the other candidate .... is the WEAKEST of all political arguments. Please, try to find something more positive.
Absolutely, positively, 110% correct!
How many more Sotomayors and Kagans Would Clinton put on te Supreme Court?
Think about it, necer Trumpers.
I did just as you and join with you.
Excellent post with well reasoned arguments.
I hope others will read it also and seriously think about the valuable points you made.
I agree. I’m not enthusiastic about Trump but he is infinitely better than the Witch. I can vote against Hillary without loving the person I am voting for.
Your point is exactly my biggest fear with any democrat in the White House this next cycle.
Hiltary only loves two things, power and our money.
Whatever it takes!
Vote Trump!
or ya gits Hitlery and she gonna grab yer guns!
