well, the most recent presidential polls have Hillary up by at the least 14, and the most 24 against various candidates. Lets not go down the “the polls are biased” road. They were right in 2012. I fear the country is lost or will come to a CWII.
where are we going to get 15 percent to change their minds. Women in this country have gone COMPLETELY insane and will vote for her seventy to thirty percent.
And when they are being raped by muslims are sifting through the ashes of a nuclear holocaust, I wonder if they will have flashback of voting for her.
I wonder if gays, when being thrown off roofs, will remember their vote, I wonder if blacks, whose laziness and premarital sex and mooching will mark them for death will remember the day they voted for her.

Can Ted Cruz Make Rand Paul Obsolete?

Ron Paul gained traction because, for all his faults, he was the only candidate who proposed radical changes to our government rather than just tweaks at the margins. He was also consistent in his positions no matter how unpalatable. Rand Paul doesn’t even have that going for him but he courts his fathers following as though he did.

With Cruz running there is now a candidate who proposes radical changes to our government and doesn’t sport Paul’s dangerous foreign policies and frightful associates. All this is a long winded way of saying that yes Cruz has made the Pauls irrelevant.

I think you will find that many libertarians, especially those on FR, are not socially liberal they simply believe the government is a very dangerous way to enforce social norms.

See Wisconsin where the apparatus designed for use in the war on drugs is now being used to violate the homes and lives of Scott Walker supporters.

Longwinded? Not hardly! Concisely said, and spot on!

Amen! There is no such thing as a government power that can be exercised only against immoral acts - see my tagline.

I agree with most of Paul's political positions, but prefer Cruz as a candidate due to his superior brain and speaking ability.

Even if Cruz loses, we can say conservatism took its best shot.

I still think Rand Paul is an atheist.

Rand is doing just fine at that task on his own.
