I would mostly agree, it is the message not the messenger BUT...

There is another cliche that applies: "How you say something is just as important as what you say." The unapologetic confident forceful method comes into play. Many conservatives say similar words, but in more polished unoffensive ways. It seems many people are looking for a bold fighter.

The message also has to be said by someone that has the attention of the national media. Others can have a similar message, but will not get the headlines every time they speak.

I agree the message is the largest part. The message shows the difference between Trump and Yeb, but there are other aspects to it as well.

I am a Cruz guy, but I am enjoying watching Trump getting his message out.

amen. It is true that it is also how the message is delivered and because trump is not beholden to the financial forces he could not care less about his delivery or words.

Ultimately I think Trump will flame out but I do hope it’s in such a way that lays open the path for Cruz to cross the finish line as I believe Cruz has that same boldness. Just not the brashness :)

Trump reminds me of how I get when my kids are deaf to my requests and I’ve asked 100 times in a calm/collected voice and then finally I lose it and they suddenly fall in line and listen :) he’s forcing people to listen and it seems that’s what it takes sometimes. Like a hard slap in the face; suddenly you’re all ears.
