Carson came out for amnesty last week. Cruz wants to expand the H1B work permits.

Trump has been questioned, requestioned, picked apart, held to things he said 20 years ago and has held pretty steady.

He has made the Christians being victims statements all along (and not to be pandering). He has attacked the Iran treaty, not even negotiating to get our hostages back.

He became pro-life about the same time many people did - when the partial birth vote came up in the Senate.

I don't think he is being soft - but he is appealing to many different groups of voters that the GOP doesn't usually get. Which means, if he can hold on and gain the nomination, the GOP has a good chance of winning, taking the downline candidates in with them. And, assuming his key talking points hold true after the election, a good chance of a congress that will actually do something.

To be honest, I'm not quite sure what a "conservative" is at this point. I understand pro-life, pro-constitution (although the SCOTUS keeps reinterpreting it) but when any candidate speaks some of what they say is not "conservative" and I don't care what candidate it is.

I have a question for you: How will Donald Trump get the congress to go along with him? So far both sides of the aisle bow and scrape to the left.
