Notice, her opening is based on a hypothetical, and then proceeds to draw conclusions and base her piece as if it were fact.

This same-sex marriage proponent is no conservative.

Same old material. I hope this RINO-ette isn’t getting paid for this.

And, if you like what’s going on in Chicago ...

http://www.nbcchicago.com/blogs/ward-room/Trump-Gave-Rahm-50K-120568104.html

$50,000 from the Donald to Rahm Emanuel. In 2010.

To paraphrase the old saying, you can tell a Trump supporter, but you can’t tell him much.

OP rivals have been slow to slam Trump for his scurrilous statements, lest they offend Trump's cultlike followers.

Brother, the establishment sort really do get nasty with the labeling and such when voters don't march to their drum.

I'm a Cruz supporter but slamming Trump isn't what I want from Cruz, I want him to slam status quo, bloated government, crony capitalism, democrats. I want him to tell me what he intends to do to get this country back on track. I want solutions.

Why do I want to hear Cruz saying and doing the same things that Obama and the democrats are doing? That's not his job and it does nothing for us.

Trump knows Democrats are corrupt and can be bought.

Paid to play with the Clintons.

Switched parties when Obama elected.

Does anyone think that Trump is anywhere near being a conservative?

Who in his right mind gives a shi!? It is what he purposes that will save America. He speaks like a real American and that is what is missing in America both from politicians and the MSM.

He’s hawking the Reagan platform, so either he’s a conservative or Reagan was a great big statist.

Excellent post you made above.
Donald Trump is appealing to me more and more each day. His approach is fresh and invigorating.
I will now be happy with either Cruz or Trump as the Republican nominee.

Although thankfully not a "professional politician", Donald Trump is much like a majority of them in that he has conservative positions on some issues and not on others. That is, although he's far from an ideal "conservative" candidate, I do not consider him to be a RINO because he is not duplicitous which is what makes RINOs so despicable.

Trump is what he is which is like most people who are not "pure" conservatives. I don't think he is pretending to be anything else which is why, although I hold strong conservative positions in most every respect -- I could vote for him. This is not the same as "the lesser of two evils" decision we have in most elections -- that is, voting for a communist/leftist (which is not an option) versus voting for a lying, dishonorable, duplicitous RINO who pretends to be something they're not in order to get elected.

So, although Trump is not the ideal candidate for conservatives, he's not a RINO by my reckoning.
