Good. The earlier move was dumb, and tone-deaf, for anyone with presidential ambitions. Romney’s anti-bailout stand guaranteed his defeat by Obama. Reagan restricted Japanese auto imports and put in place all kinds of trade restrictions to bail out Rust Belt industries. Rust Belt states will elect the next president. Any GOP nominee who goes against their interests won’t be spending the next four years in the White House.

That's just it Zhang Fei, we're not looking for someone with Ambitions, or who is going to strategize on policy positions, or change to fit his audience like Iowa and the Renewable Fuel Standards, Which Scott was dead-set against originally, and now waffles on. What we are looking for is someone we can trust to lead consistently from a conservative position and as much as I detest Romney, that was one of two positions he took in the his last debacle of a run for POTUS that were actually conservative.
You don't make special rules for anyone because they are "too big to fail".
They needed to go through the Bankruptcy process rather than raping the American tax-payer like they did.
Give me a leader, like Ted Cruz, that is consistent in his positions and consistently a full-spectrum, consitutional conservative.
And while I don't agree with all of his actions/positions, I do agree with him 95+ of the time and that is enough for any committed conservative.
