GOPer: Cruz and Trump supporters are 'not thinking anymore'
Washington Examiner ^ | April 1, 2016 | Joel Gehrke

Posted on 04/01/2016 5:17:26 PM PDT by kevcol

Rep. Don Young is disappointed that Ohio Gov. John Kasich has struggled to gain traction in the Republican presidential primaries, a phenomenon that alarms the Alaska Republican.

"He's probably the most qualified to be president," Young told a local radio host this week. "He just unfortunately doesn't have the charisma to get people ginned up because they're not thinking anymore and that concerns me the most. But he's the one that should have gotten the nomination."
.
.
Young allowed that he didn't support Kasich early in the race, either. "I was a Jeb Bush supporter," he said. "I served with his old man and I knew how good he is, but he never got off first base."

We are thinking. While we are thinking differently, we are all smart enough to know that Kasich has been marked UNDELIVERABLE.

I don’t need to be told that I’m not thinking from a guy with one Mexican in his state.

“He’s probably the most qualified to be president,”

That just shows what a tool he is.

I think the whole party has paid a price for going with three terms of people from the same family. George II in particular really did a number on the party structure.

It’s no mistake that one of the slogans for that administration was “if you’re not for us, you’re against us!”

Right now we’ve got a mess, but as long as we stay strong and keep dynasties from again taking root things will get better. (Of course they’d get better quicker if we could lose John Roberts and other Bushies).

That's weak thinking right there; unless one is into hereditary monarchies.

The GOP isn’t thinking anymore. They refuse to see what is right in front of them.

We are sick and tired of the likes of them.

This clown, Don Young is stuck on stupid. What a joke... GOPe politicians trying to keeping the the Bush Co dynasty going even after Jeb went down the toilet!

This “congressman at large” is 82. He’s been a congressman in AK since 1979. That’s 37 years if I counted correctly! He’s run for the same office 19 times!!! He’s what’s wrong with the GOP and in a larger sense, our entire cadre of elected officials. All he knows is the GOPe! Come on Alaska, can’t you find someone who’s capable who will not die of old age in office?

Supporting Kasich is not thinking at all. This mental midget couldn’t tell you Kasich record nor positions. If he did, someone should punch him in the head for being anti-American.

“GOPer: Cruz and Trump supporters are ‘not thinking anymore’”

Certainly Cruz supporters are not ‘thinking anymore’, since all they are doing is trying to help Cruz on his Crusade to cause a BROKERED CONVENTION, where some left wing loser, like Linda, Jeb, Romney, or Ryan will be the nominee...and of course we lose again, probably with both Trump AND Cruz supporting 3rd Party efforts, as well they should.

...but what the heck, ANYONE is better than Trump, even Hillary, I guess.
