That would get my vote.
Otherwise, I don’t see anyone else testing the GOP waters who I would vote for.
The MSM and neocons are going to DESTROY Rand Paul. If he makes a serious run there will be stories about him eating Jewish babies at Klan rallies. They’ve already started. They tried in Kentucky ... but he survived there. He’s going to be a distant memory by 2016.
No complaints from me. Probably #2 on my wish list. Just below Palin.
Make Canadian born Cruz your nomination and you'll see what else there is to say.
I definitely won't vote for him to be President, not unless we are having another Revolution because the Constitution is truly dead.
But...he's definitely eligible for Senate leader! And, he'd do a lot of good for the Constitution and the nation he claims as his home in that position.
The choice is: use him for what he is eligible for or sacrifice him and your integrity.
I say Bob Dole. And for the gender gap - Bush. Barbara Bush.
I could live with that, but I have a feeling the GOPe will foist Chrispie or Jeb on us.
Creeps like Matthews have no clue what “hard-right” means. In order for anyone to be “hard-right” they would have to side by side on the political spectrum with hadr-left. In other words a socialist statist.
No tingles for you, Matthews?
we’re better off w/obama; then no sane man can deny/project the truth away !!!!!

I'm trying to think of the last moderate Democrat that ran for President.
2008, 2012 - Baraq. Communist.
2004 - John F'n Kerry. Traitor, socialist.
2000 - Algore. Environmentalist whacko.
1992, 2006 - Bill Xlinton. Wholly owned subsidiary of the Chinese Communist Party.
1988 - Mike Dukakis. Inconsequential liberal.
1984 - Walter Mondale. Vice-President to the second-worst President since Reconstruction. Reliable liberal stooge.
1976, 1980 - Jimmy Carter. Anti-Semite, liberal.
1972 - George McGovern. See 1976 without the anti-Semitism.
1968 - Hubert Humphrey. Today, he'd be a Republican.
What was that about going toward the middle again, Chris?
I definitely won’t vote for him to be President....

Oh you’ll vote for him all right. In a choice of Cruz over Hillary - you’ll pick Cruz.
Or you’ll be like a lot of trolls that vote 3rd party or some other silly tactic that essentially hands the election over to the libs.
In the last election he predicted George Allen.
“”The hard-right is going to take over the Republican Party in 2016 and the nomination is going to Rand Paul”
I’ll take ‘Things that don’t go together’ for $500 Alex.
He has strong and growing support from young people. Most of whom I doubt are registered to vote in GOP primaries.
Friends don’t let friends vote for Liberaltarian idiots.
I am curious. If Cruz is not natural born, when was he naturalized?
A vast improvement over 2008 and 2012
If it’s Hillary v. NJFatboy in Nov 2016, I’m writing in Putin.....
Did you miss LBJ?
He was the one who started the GREAT SOCIETY and the WAR ON POVERTY. Legacies that we’re still paying for today.
Fortunately, the settled law (whether you agree with it or not) permits Cruz to be president.
