Standing for something and not selling your soul is a lost character trait now-a-days.

If it looks like Rubio’s going to win I’m switching parties and backing Sanders.

If Rubio’s our nominee my plan (at this time) is to switch parties and back Sanders.

Bernie’s politics are as bad as Hillary’s but he’s not a thug ( or possible traitor) like Clinton. If enough of us do that it also sends a message to the GOPe ... we’ve had it with corrupt political Establishments - on both sides.

Then we need to form our own party. If electing over 900 Republicans to office in the last 8 years didn’t do anything to STOP the flow of illegals nothing will... it’s time to consider moving on... creating a new party.

Yes, I think that's possible...

The advantage for democrats is conservatives with passion don't back GOPe candidates... so Rubio - or any of the other GOPe types - will be easy pickin's for Hillary.

The GOPe has the money - look at the mountains of cash they gave JEB... tons of money. But they don't have 'the people'... They can't play the old games on us this time.

Why? Why not?

We've been fooled twice - once by McCain - once by Romney and it's not gonna happen a third time... We know they're lying. We've elected over 900 Republicans in the last 8 years and they've done NOTHING except feather the beds of fellow elites. No borders closed, no vets protected... nothing. We elected 900 and we got the finger. Yes, those in the GOPe who voted for McCain and Romney will vote for Rubio -- that's true - - the difference is many of us ... (conservatives, Tea Party types ect )- will stay home. We were played for fools twice - shame on us if we let it happen again.. NO GOPe candidate has a chance. We will NOT support them.

Rubio might as well be a Bush for all the good he would do for the nation.

Not if the RNC is determined to nominate Bush.
