The best thing that could happen is Ted Cruz and Rand Paul run and steal each others support, says one of the donors,...
That is what I am worried about. If the conservatives split their votes we get stuck with one of the two fatso rinos, Jeb Bush or Christie. Yech!
Let the libertarians support Paul, everyone else can back Cruz
This shows the gop is owned by elites. They have nothing in common with the voters. They say what they think the voters want to hear. Just like the democrats.
No republican will ever again get my vote. If they’re not willing to stand up against the gopE, then they’re not worthy of my vote.
Now if they can only like up 7 or 8 more primary candidates and break out the stockpiles of ammo for the circular firing squad...
Rubio is from FL.
I believe in preparedness as a deterrent. I do not believe in using war to solve every problem and nation building to make other nations just like us when they are just not.
We lost so many lives over Iraq and Afghanistan and we have lost those wars at a huge price.
We did not stop anything for long, the bad guys are back with new backers probably more deadly.
I know there are those out there that do not care about the awful price paid by families, they are ready to move on to the next death inducing front as long as it wasn’t their kin.
Yes but the Bush Machine is cranking up big time and Levin is talking about it ( on break as I type ) and I am about to puke just thinking about it...
#17: That’s bu!!$hi#. Israel doesn’t want American bodies. Never have, never will. Support, yes, but not our soldiers.
I think you mean 2008, correct? We won in 2004.
We may agree more than disagree. I thought Iraq made sense for about a two week operation, if that, and basically a good undercover bit man to remove saddam should have been enough. Afghanistan less so. On the other hand, we do need to defend ourselves and help defend our allies. Failing to of this, or rendering ourselves incapable of serious military action, only invites aggression and more wars. Reagan was right about this.
No, I meant 2004. Two Skull and Bones members as the candidates of the two major parties. Did that slip your mind?
I’m certainly not saying it’s Paul’s fault, but his biggest liability - his effeminate voice and manner - more or less disqualify him. I don’t think he can overcome this handicap with positions on issues. People just won’t elect a effeminate male to be Commander in Chief. And, again, I don’t think it’s his fault. He is who he is.
I wondered about that, but the alternative was Kerry. Probably as bad as Biden would be—there both a coupla dumb clucks.
Spot on analysis.
People just wont elect a effeminate male to be Commander in Chief...
Paul isn’t effeminate, he has a beautiful wife and children.
I think it would be far worse to have a masculine female as the Hildebeast.
People just wont elect a effeminate male to be Commander in Chief.
How .... Can. .... I stop... Laughing....
seems to put the final conclusion that Jeb Bush is not a real candidate but a vote splitting candidate.
A man who wants votes needs to project a masculine image. Not everyone can do that and, like I said, it isn't Rand Paul's fault.
Cruz is a much better prospect. He's better on the issues and there's certainly nothing effeminate about him.
Ted Cruz - 2016!
It’s sadly predictable, isn’t it? The craziest ones think that Rand is pro-establishment.
