I’m afraid his support is simply “Cult of Personality”. Anyway, I support Cruz.

Don’t have a problem with it and it could happen. Also may not. Time will tell.

Trump is a master at re-branding. Re-branding could very well be that you change the package / look and feel / messaging of a product without really changing what is inside.

I’m quickly getting turned off by Trump. Too much “TV Star” and “In your Face” stuff....a lot like Obama.

Your problem is that you falsely dichotomize. That some folks at NR are wrong some of the time doesn’t mean that all of them are wrong all of the time.

“Your other points, the Founders could barely understand as political issues. Who in the world would argue to the contrary?”
See post 110.
The Trump supporters are apparently becoming ignorant

If you wish to believe that Trump is following in the footsteps of the Giuliani and Clinton failed efforts, be my guest.
He’s not.
Once again Ted Cruz cannot win the nomination.
A straight up Conservative hasn’t won it in 32 years, and this is no bell-weather year. For the rest of the pack, it’s a normal year. For Trump, it’s a slam dunk.

If you were correct that the founders did not understand the politics of the day, we would all be Brits now.

Good call by you and your husband. I voted for my last liberal in 2012, as well.

Well you all keep touting the poles, so Meg just gave an interesting example.
Trump is not inevitable. You can hang your hopes on to the poles if you wish. Nothing is for certain until people vote.
Trump is not inevitable.

"Trump is a master at re-branding. Re-branding could very well be that you change the package / look and feel / messaging of a product without really changing what is inside." Agreed. I think he knows his audience very, very well.

To: Hoodat
In an open primary where our nominee is being selected by Democrats, Independents, and Moderate Republicans, what’s your vision of a Cruz tactic that causes him to get the most votes?
Conservatives are only a dedicated few in the Republican party. We can’t even get the Republican party to join us.
You honestly think Cruz wins in the open primaries?

You have admitted that a conservative did win, 32 years ago,which, trust me, isn’t that long ago,it can happen again.Have you also admitted that Cruz is a straight up conservative, unlike the others in the race?

I’ll be honest, he’s always turned me off. I knew what kind of person he was a few years ago, when he went after Michelle Malkin on Twitter, saying she was a dummy, born stupid, and implying she had a shameful secret in her past. He sat silently while his toadies called her an Asian prostitute.

You missed the point. These virtues went largely unremarked because political opposition to them would have been unthinkable.
