It's good to be in great conservative company.
Steve King, Steve Deace, and Rick Perry, Dana Rohrabacher, Tom McClintock: what do they all have in common?
They understand the threats--immanent and existential--posed by illegal immigration.
They vote against Big Government spending sprees, but support a common defense and promote the general welfare. Indeed, they regard the United States Constitution as a charter of clear and convincing mandates, not a bunch of ephemeral suggestions which the President can push aside with a phone and pen.
What else do they all have in common?
They choose Ted Cruz to be the Republican nominee and the next President of the United States.....

I have to say this whole “He can’t Beat Hillary” thing is laughable to me. Hillary is damaged goods.
Take the candidates on last main debate stage.
I think Trump, Cruz, Rubio, and Christie could all beat Hillary.
I have my doubts about Kasich and Bush being able to do so.
My point is that the Trump supporters swear by the polls when they are in his favor, but ignore them when they aren't. If you are going to live by the poll, then you die by the poll as well... But Trum does have the highest negatives and the highest number of people who say they will never vote for him, especially among independents.
“My point is that the Trump supporters swear by the polls when they are in his favor, but ignore them when they aren’t.”
I have seen this repeated as well.
I have heard pundits who swear that with negatives in the vicinity of 70% Trump may be the only one of the top three or four GOP candidates who CANNOT win a general election.
I thought it was Dallas, but I wasn’t sure.
“I have heard pundits who swear that with negatives in the vicinity of 70% Trump may be the only one of the top three or four GOP candidates who CANNOT win a general election.”
Yes, but there are other pundits, not employed by National Review, who would disagree.
Not to mention actual polls of likely voters, who, incidentally, directly impact elections results.
No need to get defensive. You may not have noticed the polls being conducted on likely matches in the general election. They bear the pundits’ opinions out. Trump does not do as well in a general matchup.
