Obviously you’re not very good at weighing positive factors and their effect on your objectives. Please read Trump’s Art of the Deal. Maybe it will help you understand that a pure conservative doesn’t have the wide appeal that a moderate and a conservative together have and what we want to do is WIN! The future of the country depends on winning this election or seeing America destroyed forever. Nobody is more die-hard straight line than I am, but cutting your own throat doesn’t lead to anything but losing. We have to see that Cruz CANNOT WIN. BUT, someone like TRUMP CAN WIN because the country is bloody well fed up and doesn’t want any more “Politician” rule. When the winds blow in the right direction, why in heaven’s name sail against the wind?

Here’s some perspective for you.

Conservatism is a thing. Like Catholicism or membership in a fraternal group like the Elks. In order to be part of that group, you have to uphold and believe in the tenets of that group. Otherwise you’re simply lying about what you are and what you believe.

Conservatism is also a philosophy. One shared and built on by the founders of the country and one that has roots that go back to the dawn of civilization. Nowhere in that is any edict to elect liberals with more flip flops than John Kerry.

Now you are either a part of that by adhering to the principles of it or you aren’t. You don’t get to change the rules by pretending, like the AI kid and the Blue Fairy, that if you want something bad enough and say “Please Blue Fairy” half a million times, it simply ‘is’. Conservatism is not and never was about wishful thinking but about hard truth.

Trump has some very good points. Cruz has more. Trump has a touch of conservatism. Cruz is built with it at his core. You wanna know why ‘Cruz can’t win”? People like you that repeat those words like a mantra and spreading that idiocy. A year ago you were the same people laughing at the idea a thrice divorced ex Democrat would ever get right wing votes based on conservative values and yet here we are.

A year is a long time. Don’t tell me ‘Cruz can’t win’ unless you know it, not think it. And with the example above, you don’t ‘know’ squat about the future.But you can participate in and create self fulfilling prophecies.

Now if you can point out a single incorrect statement above, please do so with a complete explanation as to why because frankly, I am sick to death of people telling me I’m wrong and then providing ZERO proof of their assertion while bulling ahead with liberal nonsense.

Exactly! This his is why, after my on again, off again posting here, I'll be here more frequently now - to contribute my ideas for whatever they're worth. Posting here for hours a day is a hassle and I'd prefer to just relax and do anything but this. Anyway, exploding bags of dog chit is just wit -some wit and humor thrown in - just like at hospitals, where many of the nurses and technicians crack jokes to each other - - - to distract their minds away from all the sadness around them -even if it's just for some momentary relief.
