If NR says so then it must be true.../s
I think he is for a lot of folks like me. Trump’s VP. I think a little Trump needs to rub off on Cruz in how to cut through political B.S. and visa versa, Trump getting a deeper dedication in federal constitutional limits, so Cruz can walk into the Presidency after Trump as long as Trump’s Presidency is good to great.
Polls are meaningless to me, especially the majority of them that are push polls. Besides, whatever the reality is... it is dynamic, not static. The way things eventually fall out must be very dependent on events still to occur, how Trump/Carsen handle themselves, and how Cruz handles himself, at a minimum.
Notice their wet dream of jeb pulling out New Hampshire...really???
Trump is first, Cruz is my second.
I think this is both hypothetical and moot.
Hypothetical because most voters, despite what they now think, really don’t know what they would do should Trump no longer be in the race.
Moot because Trump isn’t going anywhere anyway (except up).
A Senator first? No way.
I would reverse that order but we do seem pretty much on the same page.
Too early. Cruz’s ground game is working delegates, not brand. He has the money and time to work brand/recognition.
My two cents, anyway.
“Cruz must be crushed before he climbs more in the polls” MSM and GOPe. By the way I am first a Trump supporter but happy to back anyone these clowns put down in the Republican Race. Cram it clowns!
These freaking pundits, with all their supposed smarts & polls & charts & facts haven’t been right about anything in a long time.
Ditto
If Trumps not there all bets are off as to what would happen. If he isn't, it won't be pretty for the GOP or the country.
After Trump the rest look so anemic its almost a stay home. I guess Cruz would be our second choice.
Can someone explain the appeal of Carson. I get it that he is an outsider, an intelligent and likable guy but other than that what makes Carsons’ voters think his is presidential?
I completely agree...what substance does Carson have? Like you said...he is a very likable guy, but what else does he have?
National Rinoview has jumped the shark.
Never underestimate the power of coming off as intelligent and likable. When it comes to the general election I think these qualities determine the winner more often than not. With Carson we also have a candidate that comes off as very genuine and that is quite refreshing. I wouldn't vote for him but I believe I would enjoy his company very much and that we would get along quite well.
