I have a weird proposition for you today. Consider this Halloween-related.
If you had to choose between Donald Trump, Ben Carson and Ted Cruz as the next president, which one would you pick and why?
If you're a very conservative Republican, this may not be such a daunting prospect. If you're a moderate of either party or someone on the farther left, you're more likely to be appalled.
But in the wake of a debate in which Cruz emerged as an increasingly popular candidate in the crowded GOP field, and in which Trump and Carson remain the front-runners, I think it's a reasonable question. None of the Above is not an option in this case.....

“Cruz, because I’m rather fond of the US Constitution.”
Cruz voted for the Corker bill, that, according to Mark Levin, upended the Constitution’s treaty protection clause.
Trump, because he can get things done and he is the only one of the three who can win the general election.
Cruz
If a President must be a zealot to honor his Oath of Office to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution, I’ll enthusiastically take the zealot, TED CRUZ!
The best that can be said for that is that Cruz was dumb. He admitted it.
Cruz birthers don’t deserve serious consideration.
I’d go with Cruz, though not particularly happy about it. Carson I’d be less happy with, and Trump would just make me groan and cry out for a new Moses to arise.
Is this Thread breaking a record for Deleted Comments?
WTH is all that about?
That sounds familiar.
2012, I think.
TRUMP!!
Cruz is the only conservative.
The problem is, outside of every ones wishful thinking, Cruz or Carson can’t win a general election. This is just another attempt to take Trump down, and those that can’t/won’t see that are destine to doom us, once again, with Hillary Clinton for 8 years.
And before I get all the BS comments, you know in your hearts I’m right and the MSM/DNC would do a 24/7 Cruz/Carson hate-a-thon rendering either one less attractive to Indep/Cross-over Dems/Blacks/Hispanics voters. We’ve seen in polls that Trump at least can pull all three which is why they are all so desperate to take Trump out. That said, I have no problem with Cruz/Carson so this isn’t a, I’m against Cruz/Carson, it’s just reality.
So the question isn’t Trump, Cruz, or Carson. The question is: Who has a better chance of building a coalition large enough to beat Hillary, and do what whats best for the country. The answer is Donald Trump.
Cruz or lose.
Oh, yeah, you’re the one who said you thought Cruz’s affectionate pictures with his little girls were “calculated.”
Next.
The answer is Donald Trump.
Well said. Trump is the only one who can beat Hillary. At this point, that is the only thing that should matter.
That might be true, but I think that the dimmanazis fear Cruz the most.
Steam cinders or smoke?
Any one of those 3 who will build a wall and deport ALL illegals.
TRUMP. Not Cruz. Not now, probably not ever (I do not like what he’s done so far & I do not like his positions on amnesty & H1B visas. Come to think of it, I don’t like anything about him. I *especially* don’t like that this “Christian” family leaves those two precious little girls- their *children*, with a nanny so that Mommy can pursue her high powered, prestigious career instead of raising her daughters. But that’s just me.)
Cruz 2016 will give us Bush just like Santorum gave us Romney and the democrat- probably Shitlery, will win. People don’t want him & they’ll stay home. Again.
Short of massive voter fraud or another 2000 fiasco, there is no way in the world that Cruz can win the general election. (That’s not winning).
/rant off Sorry. (Yes. I know I just sprinkled in the punch bowl. Waaake up.)
Who does Levin support?
