“(1) The GOP leadership is liberal and hates conservatives.

(2) Liberal democrats vote in the early open Republican primaries.”

Exactly. The GOP has an obvious disadvantage because it seems logical (to me, anyway) that they will have MANY more names on ballot in the primaries that the democrats, too. The democrats will vote for the GOP candidates that they are most sure the democratic nominee can beat.

Just like the last time, countless millions of dollars will be spent in the GOP primary, and it’ll hurt our chances to campaign in the general election.

Also, the long campaign will see several candidates who will stay in too long, just to create a better chance for the next campaign. All of the name calling and blaming for scandals will simply give the democrats ammo against the GOP nominee.

I am not sure Hillary is electable, but I am thinking that from a financial perspective she will have a major advantage after the primaries.

Jeb Bush
Mitt Romney
Chris Christie
John McCain
Mike Huckabee

People who agree with the hard core right -— us -— are a distinct minority. As much as I want a real conservative, I do not see how we get enough votes. The electorate has been dumbed down as the left has planned for two generations. They have an unbelievable advantage with the press working with them to control the agenda. EXAMPLE: we know what really happened in Ferguson. After the grand jury’s findings, including the DNA, we should have at least 75% of Americans understanding what happened. But they don’t understand. They have been Grubered. When we have remedial reading and English being taught at the college level, we are in trouble.

Cruz has the new car smell.

Jebbush smells like a garbage truck.
Hitlery smells like a kubelwagen.

I personally like your list and would add Rick Santorum to it.

What? Romney? Those are the choices. Only if a new partỳ forms massively right now and can nominate its own will we have a choice outside those two. Between them they control probably 90% of the available primary campaign money.

His same comments about Cruz I heard about Reagan in 1980, plus he was too old.

The GOP will lose because they still can’t figure out that most of the country wants a true conservative to run, not a GOP-e like Dole, McCain and other idiots like them that they’ve run out there.
