Cruz is not electable. period. I agree with his politics and find him not likeable. certainly anyone marginal is not going to be persuaded to vote for him, and face it, we cannot win an election with just the rightwing voting. She makes a better case for him than I can. one bad debate performance is not going to dissuade me that he's the best for the job. he is normally extremely articulate. I do not like ted cruz. yes, I will obv vote for him if he ends up with the nomination, but he is not remotely electable in my opinion. I have talked to a LOT of people, and that appears to be the consensus. people of all sorts of persuasions, who are republican. if you talk only to freepers or people similarly inclined you can believe [falsely] that it's possible. but I am here to tell you that the % of freepers in the country is not sufficient to win an election. the scary thing is TRUMP IS ELECTABLE, but has no principles and is as juvenile as a teen girl!

I like how Trump has steered some of the narrative toward important issues that would have been otherwise overlooked, I like how he has absolutely owned the media, II like how he drives leftists insane, and I love that he isn’t concerned with being PC or willing toapologize. It’s about time someone with an R next tot heir name had some cajones. I just wish he had real conservative principles backed up with history.

Cruz is OK policy wise IMO, but as exciting and electable as a wet ham sandwich without any cheese or mustard.

Rubio is pro-amnesty. BZZZZZZZT, out.

Bush? Not a chance in hell I could vote for him. Sorry.

Nobody else counts.

I hate this election.

And I equally dislike Rubio and think he is ultimately unelectable. I will stick with the candidate I most agree with on the issues. I am through trusting the GOPe with my vote. Not happening. I may not vote at all.

That’s what people said when he ran for the Senate in Texas. I have yet to find anything about him with which I disagree, whereas I have several things that conflict with Rubio and they all stem from his amnesty positions and the Gang of 8.

And are you insinuating that Trump is likeable? Or does one have to be likeable to be electable? I don’t understand your point.
