He can’t do squat with the senate running block for everyone. Elevate the playing field and I think he would produce.

It seems that you can’t seem to learn. Do you not see the rinos you would elect siding with every whim of Obama? illegals? the military? Obamacare?

Do you not see a connection between rinos helping him and the leftward lurch of the GOP? Do you not think that Rinos would do more of the same against/with hillary?

He does not fight. He does not try. He is useless if not an actual Democrat. His actions show him to be no different than one do they?

Yes no solid arguments just crap like we’ll see. Anyone who does not agree with their lack of argument is suspected of being a plant.

Rand Paul is honest but no more for open borders than anyone else. Don’t mistake silence from others for being for more border control.

I don’t buy the whole libertarian line but I am smart enough to know that we stand zero chance without them so we better find the common ground or practice saying President Clinton and VP warren.

We really do not want another pair of Senators running again, do we?

Seriously.

I spent many years dealing with eco nuts. I am familiar with how libs operate and I am amazed with how many get away with convincing people here what ‘staunch conservatives they are’ while telling people to their face to support lib/rinos.

Good God how freaking blind are people?

I used to believe voting for any repub, even a RINO, was better than voting for the dem.

Quit believing that a few election cycles ago. No More Rino’s or GOPer’s.

And Cruz endorsed Cronyn.

Now go back and tell Karl, the old tactics ain’t working anymore.

Norm, I haven’t voted in the last two Presidential elections, and I don’t regret the McNut bypass, but I would rather have had Mitt Romney, as bad as that might have been, over this moron.. I didn’t vote for him, but I regret it now..

I don’t just sit at a computer and type, I write checks and shoot my mouth off on TV and radio, and destroyed my production, and publishing businesses, being so outspoken in my Conservatism.. All of the chest thumping doesn’t do much if you never hold the throttle, and sit in the driver’s seat..

You can be so right on so many issues and so blinded on others.

Cruz never ‘slipped’ on Amnesty and yes I looked it up. Paul has. a couple times now. And he backs one if the top 2 libs in the GOP.

Sorry Conservatism can’t count on you when the chips are down.

I’ll say it again - the only way Cruz, Paul, or anyone else outside the ruling class elite ranks stands a chance is to win on their own merit, and that means each and every one of us has to stop participating in the circular firing squad and seeking the perfect candidate, and instead support the Buckley Rule, e.g. the “most conservative candidate who can win.”

The circular firing squad force is strong on FreeRepublic. Many posters here want a candidate who agrees 100% with them. They are to conservatism what Greenpeace is to environmentalism: They seek perfection.

That said, it is time to ditch the GOP elite and offer up a candidate with some moxie.

Yea and I had Time Magazine take me apart by name once. BFD. So what? I also voted in every election. Not voting means you didn’t matter and wasted it all.

And Jeb Bush's 6% comes from DemonRATS who want to see him as the nominee to insure a GOP loss.

A Paul / Cruz ticket would be even better.

Rand Paul is a better speaker, and hasn’t the personal ‘gotcha’ vulnerability that Cruz has.
