Saying you are conservative, and being conservative, are two different things.

You could be conservative and vote for Romney or even McCain, if you supported a conservative in the primaries, and were left with the choice of those guys or Obama. I was in that camp. Boy was it hard to vote for those two. But I did. I also knew that there would be millions of the base who could not let their disdain for their party's candidate overcome their fear of the other side's candidate. And so we lost.

In this election, I do not believe you can be conservative and support Kasich in the primaries. Or anyone other than Trump, Cruz or Carson. The rest are shills for the elite, playing a role. Especially Kasich. And Kasich is more of a proven lib than even Jeb. He's governing like Christie. He's a progressive. And you support him. That makes you.....conservative????

Carson, unfortunately, has no chance whatsoever of being the nominee, Trump won't get past Iowa because he is not about to sit in peoples living rooms, drink hot chocolate, and discuss politics with 25 people....Caucus state!

Cruz would be more than O.K. by me, but I'd MUCH rather have a governor than another 1 term senator.....like we have now.

Especially Kasich. And Kasich is more of a proven lib than even Jeb. He's governing like Christie. He's a progressive. And you support him. That makes you.....conservative????

My first choice was the GOVERNOR, of Wisconsin, he dropped out....I then leaned toward Bush, another GOVERNOR, and even GOVERNOR Christie.....we now have a businessman, and two first term senators and 1 GOVERNOR as our candidates. We have a first term senator as President, how's that working out for you??

Governors do things, they are fully responsible for things like schools, police, national guard, prisons, highways, universities, health care programs, state parks, commerce, licensing, civil rights, etc etc. Senators, for the most part, vote yes or no on things that someone else does.

Trump,of course in unique in this situation...he is certainly a successful businessman but has become so by negotiating for the most part. Negotiations are, of course, necessary, but so are unwavering stances...you can't be a little bit pro-life, you can't be kind of in favor of civil rights, a little bit of religious freedom is like none, negotiating with ISIS is useless.....

I am in favor of people who have had to make hard choices, realize that 100% is improbable, but someone who has NEVER had to do so is, like Obama, is apt to be inept. `
