my only response to that is the following:
Those citizens of NH describing themselves as conservative do not know what the word implies or the ideology it denotes. IMHO.
It's not really a response. Just an improvable assertion. What it basically means is that the "very conservative" voters, which was Ted Cruz's strongest group, weren't Cruz's strongest group because they were really all liberal mushes. You're basically picking and choosing conservatives based on who they support, even though the majority of Freepers support Donald Trump for President. With your logic, none of us are conservatives either.
Long story short: your humble opinion is just stupid and bigoted.
