"If we must have an enemy at the head of Government, let it be one whom we can oppose, and for whom we are not responsible, who will not involve our party in the disgrace of his foolish and bad measures." - Alexander Hamilton |

"We don't intend to turn the Republican Party over to the traitors in the battle just ended. We will have no more of those candidates who are pledged to the same goals as our opposition and who seek our support. Turning the Party over to the so-called moderates wouldnât make any sense at all." -- President Ronald Reagan |

"If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams |

To: SoConPubbie
I disagree. I think Bush will be kept in by the establishment and as Kasich folds (a 100% certainty), and Rubio finally drops out (I dont see him in past March), Bush will be the last gopee standing against Trump and Cruz.

Trump will do what has to be done and fast to save America. We are in the twilight years of existence as a Constitutional conservative America without him and him only.
To: SoConPubbie
After New Hampshire it’s a one man race.

There are only 3 possibilities:
1. Trump is the nominee
2. Cruz is the nominee
3. There is a brokered convention

Trump is for slightly slower socialism than Bernie. He has proposed NO reforms to entitlements, even maintaining Obamacare’s idea of government-funded universal health care coverage, and he has offered very little ideas in the way of shrinking government.
Cruz is for extensive conservative reform and change. Cruz and Cruz only can restore America as a Constitutional conservative country.

Did anyone won the nomination with 11% votes in NH?
To: JediJones
Cruz is lounge shouter, nothing to show for. Plus he is a cheater.
To: Logical me
Yes he will...
I won’t say he’s fearless...
.....but he knows what’s ahead and he’s running toward it.
Actually, maybe he is fearless!

I think it’s a three man race at this point but that doesn’t mean that the other candidates don’t have roles to play in this game. They will all tie themselves to whomever they perceive as being best able to elevate their careers and will use the resources they have left to assist their new masters.

Nope, Bush’s only chance is to ‘kill’ Kasick, Rubio, and Trump in SC.
Which means he has no chance at all.

Kasich and Bush are going nowhere down south but Rubio could make a comeback. Hopefully it is a two man race after SC.

Rubio needs to drop out and to pray that he never runs into Chrispy again.

If this were a race where the GOPee liked the front runner, the race would already have been called for the front runner. Since they don’t like either of the two front runners, it is still a race.
All the stories I have seen say that the GOPee thinks they can “work with” Trump, but not Cruz. However if you look closely at how Ted and Heidi Cruz got to where they are with a $3.5 million net worth, you find that they are tied quite closely to the establishment. Particularly the Bush-Clinton establishment.
So it is beginning to appear that Ted Cruz is the GOPee “anti-establishment” stalking/Trojan horse. In sundance’s original analysis, Ted Cruz was supposed to siphon off the “true, consistent Conservative vote” so that JEB! could win. Now they either need Ted to knock off Trump, so JEB! can win, or the will call their chits on Ted and control him.
Either way, if Trump looses, then real Americans loose.
