I’ll wager some here on FR will begin attacking Cruz because of some point or issue that he isn’t 100% perfect on. Rush is talking about this very thing right now.

I have a bad feeling “conservatives” are going to begin turning on Cruz very soon. I believe for some, there will be NO candidate perfect enough, conservative enough to be president.

We’re going to end up handing this election to Hillary or Warren...I just know it.

My bad feeling is that, while a significant number of conservatives seem enthusiastic about Cruz's candidacy, they won't put out the potentially superhuman effort needed to install Cruz in the White House. It's not enough to talk about Cruz. It's not enough to just vote for Cruz. Jeb will have the full party machine behind him. To get Cruz elected, we need to create and implement our own machine.

In the eyes of certain FReepers, Reagan was a RINO - he cut and ran from Lebanon, gave amnesty to illegals, raised taxes and waged the War On Drugs. In their eyes, HE’S JUST NOT GOOD ENOUGH.

In the eyes of certain FReepers, Jesus Christ was a RINO - He befriended and forgave tax collectors, advised people to pay their taxes to the government, and consorted with known prostitutes. In their eyes, HE’S JUST NOT GOOD ENOUGH.

This explains why we ended up with Bishop Willard from Planet Kolob as the GOPe nominee in 2012 - because in the case of every conservative candidate, the cry went out: YOUR GUY’S JUST NOT GOOD ENOUGH.

The FReeper’s Definition of Conservative: “I'm not sure, but whatever it is, it sure as hell ain’t YOU!!!”

And as Chuck Schumer pointed out, "We're United. You're Not."
