It’s usually all over but the crying by the time I get a chance to vote. But it’s quite early in the process to have made that decision yet.
Weill I am voting for Cruz, because I think what America needs is honesty and truth, and I believe Cruz is honest and truthful.
But I also believe that Cruz is not going to be able to win the nomination, and that makes me sad.
At this point in time, it looks like a substantial amount of people think that Donald trump has what it takes to turn this country around, but I just don’t know if he does.
I do know that he has been able to gain significantly more traction than all of the other candidates, which tells me that all of the other candidates are not connecting with Americans in any significant way.
This is where I believe Walker would prevail. He makes a conservative message appeal to many who would otherwise vote Democrat. Those votes are ripe for the picking this go around.
There are not nearly enough Republicans where I live to decide a County-wide or state-wide election and yet Walker's been not only elected, but re-elected because he lays out a commonsense plan and then actually does what he say he will.
