That describes freerepublic Cruz supporters to a tee.
Oh, and your support for Scott Walker.

The hypocrisy is amazing

I guess all those links to facts about Walker's positions were for naught.

LOL! I don't even watch football. I haven't since the Colts played home games in Baltimore.

Cruz is my first choice. He caught my attention in one of those ambush interviews when he gave the right answers, well articulated, off the cuff. He has not been a disappointment since, has done his share of rattling the GOPe in the Senate, even if he doesn't get the 'rock star' treatment from the media.

Trump is a different sort of player in all this, coming from a different angle, who can well afford to use his existing name recognition to help him beard the media and all the 'right' people--the jerks and mediots we have been waiting to see get their come-uppance for a long time. That's refreshing, but it also tends to gather a faction of people who applaud the drama rather than carefully consider their stance.

You are free to support who you want, for whatever reason(s) you want, but kindly don't project the pep-rally atmosphere in part of the Trump camp on other candidates' supporters.
