Are we picking candidates based on looks now?
If we are, Trump is definitely out of the running.
Funnily enough, I think Cruz is handsome. A person would have to dislike him to think he isn’t good looking. Unless they are married to Michael Weatherly.
It’s funny and hypocritical that back in 2008 many here said that Fred Thompson was to old at 65 at that time, but yet ? We have many here supporting Donald Trump Who is near 70 years old or at 70 but no one is saying that he is to old.
Same thing applies to Mitt Romney.
I guess the old double standard is more equal to other people than others.
If we are, Trump is definitely out of the running.
No, we are not picking them based on looks. If we were, I would definitely have to go with Trump over Cruz--because Cruz looks so much like Bill Murray, and I cannot envision Bill Murray as a serious candidate for anything.
If voting strictly on policy, I have to go with Cruz. On the other hand, Trump is very charismatic and shows a strong backbone. So, in the choice between a candidate who nearly exactly shares my views (Cruz), or a candidate who only shares about 70% of my views but has the strength and charisma to enact policies against the tidewaters of the Washington establishment--it's a tough call.
