I LOVE these polls that show the Republican candidate always slightly ahead of the Democratic candidate at the beginning of the year (GW vs Gore, McCain vs Obama, Romney vs Obama....notice a pattern in all of those? We lost the “Popular” Vote in each one of those). People are misreading the polls! ANY Republican candidate can expect his/her numbers to DROP in the general election! The onslaught that will come from the MSM, Hollywood, Entertainment Industry, Cultural “Elites”, Educational Industrial Complex, etc...will be relentless and there is NO evidence that any of the Republican candidates (except Trump) will be able to whether it! The fact that Trump (in the eyes of the MSM) has insulted virtually EVERYONE and is only two points away from Hillary tells you that he has the BEST chance to Win the General Election! His number against Hillary is his FLOOR, and NOT his ceiling like the others!! JMHO

I’m not basing my support of Cruz solely on closing the border the way you apparently are with Trump.

Simply enforcing the existing laws as Cruz says he intends to do is going to be much more effective in stopping the illegals than a wall and promising touch back amnesty.

The promise of touch back amnesty will be a magnet to illegals to come here so they can get touch back amnesty.

It’s going to be fabulous to see what you say when if Trump wins, he governs like a standard Progressive.
.....................................................

You and your buddies still don’t get it. Politicians have sold us out straight down the line. We need a clean sweep, that means a house cleaning. It can’t be worse than it is now. I am NOT WILLING to do the same thing over and over and expect it to come out any differently. I am voting for the man who will AT THE VERY LEAST STOP selling out America to the New World Order. The ECONOMY is the number one issue in this election and the man who knows how to use it to America’s advantage is DONALD TRUMP! Like it or not, he’s the only one who has what it takes. You would rather vote for a politician who can’t even remember what a federal filing means and follow the rules correctly, even though he is a lawyer. No thanks. I put on boots before I walk in snake infested grass.

You’ve lost it, Sowell. Take a look at Donald’s family. The apples don’t fall far from the tree!

You might want to look up what “projecting” means.

Me too. His principles are on plain view. Work hard, use your brains and trust your judgement, and no drugs, alcohol, or tobacco. He follows what he preaches. Good enough for me.

He’s a corporate socialist, turned GOP music man, who is capitalizing on panicked voter derangement syndrome.

Best summation yet, I think. Unfortunately. And yet there are so many who would vote for Bernie or Hillary despite everything, that we actually need him. Cruz is simply beyond the understanding of the general public. Generally speaking, people already think like Trump talks. That's why, BTW, he speaks as he does - it's no accident.

But, but, but.....The Trump sheep say he is he ONLY one who can win! They he will win NY and MA.

Trump sheep are delusional. Nobody except their cult likes the guy. He will lose.

Donald Trump = poorly mannered Mitt Romney.

I think Trump is considerably to the left of Romney.
