That is about where I'm at. However, I feel Trump's participation in the primaries is critical for at least two reasons: (1) expose & decimate RINOs (2) Run point & draw fire on conservatives issues that RINOs want to play it safe on, do not want to discuss or elaborate upon. With Trump drawing fire, even if he gets wounded, Cruz can complete the mission. Trump can breach the RINO castle wall and Cruz can take the castle and raise the conservative flag. I look at Cruz & Trump as a good cop bad cop duo that is out to take down the GOP establishment RINOs.
Slowly, ever so slowly, GOP leadership may becoming aware that their taken for granted, ridiculed conservative voters are no longer sheep with nowhere else to go.We have finally become Conservatives first and Republicans only when it is earned and deserved.
