If the Republican Presidential Primaries came down to these candidates, for whom would you vote?

Yep.....To be honest I hate the primary. It just sucks all around. I guess its because I never get my candidate. I am the worst. I wanted Santorum so badly in 2012 and I started with him when he announced. I was living in PA when he was Senator and he was awesome. So idiots decided that because he didn’t endorse extreme liberal Toomey, they were going to kick him out. Stupid. So that is what I had to hear during the primary from everyone. So they got their desires with Romney and we lost. Stupid.
Now in 2016, I wanted Walker badly, but again many here were saying he was not conservative enough and couldn’t win even though he won 3 elections in a bluish state. Stupid. Of course seeing that conservatives were not on his side, he decided to drop out. How I would love to have him as Trump’s VP. Now that would be completely awesome and I still hope that happens.
Is Rubio really that popular in Florida?
No, the same issue exists. One is, the other is not.
I can so relate to what you said. I never seem to back a winner either. If Trump wins, he’ll be my first, iirc.
Your idea of Walker as veep is one of the best I’ve heard. If Alan West hasn’t badmouthed Trump, he’s another possibility. (I have a vague recollection of West’s site coming out against Trump early on.)
Or maybe Trump could actually pick Santorum. Trump himself said his running mate would have to be tough on illegals. Can’t beat Santorum there. Plus Trump has to know he’s not as strong with evangelicals as some. He may want to counter that. (I know Santorum is Catholic. But many evangelicals backed him the first go round.)
That is a good idea too (Sanotrum) for VP. It will be interesting to see how this plays out. I was on another thread and they had Trumps tweets to Cruz. Ouch.
Mark my words, something big will turn up on Cruz from the past.....and I am not talking loans, stupid statements, or anything like that. I just have this feeling that we are going to find out something. It is coming and it won’t be pretty.
Thank you very much!
Trump ping!
:)
Trump is the second choice of more Carson voters than Cruz.

I believe you. As the Chinese saying goes, we live in interesting times. And this primary is far from over.
Great job Jeff...
Funny. You go back 15 years to find something derogatory on Trump while closing your eyes to Ted’s flipflops from the last two years.
For TPA before against TPA.
For the Corker bill before against the Corker bill.
For H1B increase before against increase.
For anchor babies before against.
Should I go on? There is more.
[‘I’ve just returned from Twitter and he’s bashing Cruz’s brains out.’
Can’t argue with you there. Trump is lit.]
Jeb should give Ted the brand name of the lube he used when Trump took him out.
Nice news but isn’t a bit foolish to include “I wouldn’t vote” respondents? This is primary for crying out loud! Primaries are ZERO sum games meaning if you don’t vote you should NOT be included in the report.
“Mark my words, something big will turn up on Cruz from the past.”
There is a lot of his biography people just dont know.
If Trump succeeds, he is going to need help navigating the houses because both Dems and the GOPe will be working to undermine him. I was thinking he may bring Newt back.
Just read through the tweets and wow...
Looks like the gloves are off. Either this is a strategy, or Cruz must have REALLY pissed him off two nights ago.
