And that's the thing - he's not a flaming leftard. In fact, he's right on a lot of issues - immigration, guns, taxes, common core, and now health care. In fact, he's actually not even really that bad on abortion, unless one chooses to disbelieve that he changed on that issue between 1999 and 2014.
Personally, I believe that a lot of the sturm and drang about Trump that we're seeing is coming about more from hurt feelings than anything else: there are a lot of Rubio and Cruz folks out there who have taken it personally that the voters aren't choosing their candidates despite their repeated, insistent, urgent warnings that ONLY THEIR CANDIDATE CAN SAVE AMERICA.
Personally I am a CRUZ guy, but I have always told everybody here that TRUMP is an acceptable alternate candidate if CRUZ does not make the cut.
I do like the tone of TRUMPS position paper on health care, no wiggle room, no way to twist the words into something indecipherable.
Does need tort reform though, guess that could come later in the process.
