Who would you want to see for the GOP nomination? List your top three choices in order.
Dang, I like the way you think!
That's what all the whiners said in Texas when he ran for Senate, too.
Maybe I think a President that’s actually “Conservative” beats out Executive Experinece which is overrated because it isn’t rocket science to lead when you know what the right thing to do is. Look at Obama, he had no Executive Experience whatsoevver and has yet succeeded beyond his wildest dreams of destroying the country and dismantling the Constitution. Do you think a stint as Gov of IL before he took office would have changed that? I don’t think so.
Maybe I understand and recognize the factors that led to Reagan’s two landslides and that Cruz is doing everything he can to replicate those factors (touching the grassroots/base personally, money hauls, communicating conservatism without watering it down in an articulate manner, bypassing the media to get the message out, taking the enemy head on via debates and winning, and most importantly, he’s not just trying to win the supposed “Reagan Democrats”, he’s trying to create more of them from the far leftists).
If Cruz is nominated, he will easily win the General Election. He will win every contested battleground state and could very well become the first Republican to win PA since Reagan. He will make ME and OR competitive and the Democrats victories in NY and CA may be barely double-digits or even less.
Cruz is clearly the top choice and it isn’t even close.
My suggestion is if you are really a true conservative, you should change your opinion to support Cruz as your #1 if it isn’t already. But if you don’t care about saving the country from the brink, by all means support a weaker candidate that will disappoint.
If we're talking warts, then I can handle Cruz’. I can learn to stomach Walker over time and not feel like I want to hurl when I pull the lever. The rest can go scratch.
Heck, I've held my breath for McCain and Romney until I nearly passed out - I can forgive Ted on some Hb1 visa comments.
Cruz it or lose it.
Walker
Cruz
Rubio
AND, Ben Carson would be a nice addition to either campaign.
I've been saying we need a wrecking ball, not a candidate.
Trump is that wrecking ball and he's taking fire off Cruz in the process.
I hope they’re for real and I hope they do win in a landslide.
Another poster said DT is burning an awful lot of bridges.
That makes me think he could be for real.
If the country continues in its current direction, people like DT could wind up losing everything they’ve worked so hard for.
Maybe that’s his motive.
It could be completely self serving.
But if DT and Cruz can reverse the damage all Americans will benefit and that’s a good thing.
How about this one!
Limbaugh/Cruz
Trump Cruz Jindal
Bush and Rubio are democrates. They only care about big money.
The Gop has always been a horrible party of the crony crooked capitalist. Thats all it was from the beggining. Slimy party, they dont care one bit about Americans or America.
1. Kasich
2. Cruz or Walker or Jindal
3. Anything but a Democrat (I’ll vote for a turd before I vote for a Democrat, but I’m not racist, it could be a black mans turd.)
note: Christie for press secretary.
Kasich?? Why? I don’t even know who that is!
Walker
Cruz
Trump
Cruz.
That loveable little fuzzball for Prez? LOL
It's the mark of a man who's putting his money where his mouth is. Trump means business (no pun intended).
Muchly the same.
Cruz
Walker
(exception) instead of blank, Trump. Not for actual prez but to keep stirring the pot and reminding the eGOP that they’re nothing but moral cowards and white collar criminals.
