well said and reasonable in an age of un-reason and fanaticism

Thx great read

I will only answer this in this fasion. Donald Trump will slaughter Hillary Clinton in the general election.

What would you consider a slaughter? And if he doesn't, will you come back to share that plate of Crow?

[tips up]

Actually a vote for those two makes a brokered convention more likely. And the GOPe can install Romney or Ryan as the nominee.

Gee, I must ask why you waste your own time here?

Are you hoping to get people not to read it?

Is that you Rove?

Gee, does the song, “Who’s Crying Now” mean anything to youm

[Tupelo]

I beg to differ.
There is no such thing as a “Wasted Vote”, if it is cast. A wasted vote is a vote not cast.

A newbie only here about 6 weeks.

Gee, could a newbie be a democrat troll?

All you Cruzers up until a few weeks ago were saying Trump was your second choice. Yet now your candidate is tag-teaming with Rubio, who Cruzers have been dissing for months? Don't you feel betrayed?

Cruz can't win. Why? The "dirty campaign" meme stuck. And what did Cruz do? That hand shake with Rubio behind Trump's back and then afterwards saying he'd support Rubio ahead of Trump. Don't you feel betrayed?

I am always going to vote for the candidate who most embodies my principals.

It’s primary season. Vote for whom you want. It can affect the platform, even if your chosen candidate doesn’t win. No amount of all-in for the lead guy will change the in-the-tank nature of the press.

The press is not “in the tank” for the Democrats. Rather, negative, superficial people become cynical about other peoples’ freedom. Call themselves what they will, such people are socialists. Bernie Sanders is honest about it, most American socialists are not honest about it, probably not even with themselves. And that is especially true of journalists who, contrary to all evidence, make out that they are objective.

“A vote for Ted Cruz or, Marco Rubio is a wasted vote.”

Thanks for posting, but it’s WORSE than a wasted vote. A wasted vote is one for Carson or Kasich - i.e., no different than not voting.

A vote for Cruz or Rubio, at this point, is a vote to move the nomination process into the convention and allow KARL ROVE and his bunch to, once again, SELECT OUR CANDIDATE. And it sure as hell won’t be Cruz, and it probably won’t be Rubio. More like Jeb, Romney, or Linda.

That’s what a Cruz or Rubio vote does.

Why would I waste my vote on someone who thinks Planned Parenthood is good

[2nd Amendment]

I’m fixin’ to vote for Cruz this evening in Georgia. I have to answer to my conscience. I cannot vote for a adulterous man who has no need for God who belittles his opponents like a grade school kid and has only recently espoused a semblance of conservative values. My vote might be wasted, but I can sleep at night if this monstrosity of a man takes over America!

Correct for Texans. tossing your vote in the trash so that Trump doesn’t get 50% of Texas is a mistake. Hopefully, it won’t matter in the end. Buy why do it?

I a majority of the convention is composed of Cruz and Trump delegates, how will that happen? I am a Cruz volunteer. I have an outside chane of being a delegate. Speaking for like-minded Cruz supporters, Rove et al won't pull anything on us. I cannot speak for the Trump supporters.

“Are those 20,000 Democrats in Massachusetts going to vote straight ticket Republican in November or are they going to vote Trump in November and vote to return the control of House and Senate to the Democrats?”

If they help Trump get the nomination, they are already GREAT AMERICANS. But yes, some will split tickets - used to happen all the time in left-wing states, until we kept running RINOs and SPONGES that wouldn’t defend themselves.

Here is the hard truth

Trump is not conservative.

Cruz is.

Vote for a conservative candidate.

Ted Cruz.

I’m giving my primary vote today to Jim Robinson’s preferred candidate: Ted Cruz.

[rfreedom4u]

I guess I’ll be “wasting” my vote then. Cruz is the only good choice.
