Rand Paul? What planet do these goomers live on?

The planet is called Delusiontopia.....where they are having fantasies of a Rand Paul nomination - when the truth is, neither Jeb nor Rand is going to even be a factor.

This time I hope there are multiple RINO / establishment candidates splitting the RINO / establishment vote and a single conservative candidate. Only chance we’ve got.

Palin, Cruz, or LOSE.

A hundred years ago I thought Jeb was the guy. I wished he had run and won rather than GW.

I’ve changed my mind since then. He’s just another one who back-hands conservatives and wants to leave the border open.

Its not just that he’s not a conservative, but that he actually dislikes conservatives.

The MORE RINOs, the better. Let coalesce around ONE true constitutional conservative candidate —— TED CRUZ.

The GOPe’s are not going to run two RINO’S, Paul and Jeb.
That would split the RINO vote and allow a conservative to win.

Can’t have that.

I agree with the others. Its Cruz. Rand has disqualified himself, as has Jeb. I don’t see anyone else out there.

Can we convince Jeb to change parties? He’d make an OK Dem candidate.

No way would I be for Jeb or Rand, I hope the GOP can elect a Conservative and make up the numbers outside of probably sure blue state votes such as New York and California. Population centers seem to be a problem. Still, many governorships will remain red.

I’d like to see the names of Bush’s “friends” who are leaking this.

No way I’m going to support Bush, and I actually don’t think he’s going to run (too much stigma associated with the Bush name), but I’m highly suspicious that all of these anonymously sourced “Bush will run” stories that are sure to inflame a lot of Conservatives are popping up now, several weeks before elections that will determine control of the Senate.

Salon wishful thinking.

There is no real civil war except the inside the beltway cronies vs the rest of the united states.

remember DC sees “outside the beltway” as an insult.

Sure they could, because they’re not going to let a conservative anywhere near the nomination.

Saloon strikes again. Same “publication” that employs Joan Walsh.

Spit.

You’re right, Mr. “Jumping the border is an act of love” needs to stay home and NOT run. At one point I wish he’d run instead of W, but had he run and won, we’d probably have had amnesty already.

Meanwhile sites like Salon really fret over the divisions among the Rats.
