If Trump is the nominee, many Cruz supporters will have a temper tantrum and stay home.
That, right there, is a very key point. Those Cruz supporters who would stay home are, IMHO, demonstrating that they are very immature, and I also question their true dedication to the cause of conservatism - after all, they will choose not to vote for someone who will give them 50%-75% of what they want, and allow someone who will give them 0% of what they claim to want (and what is CLEARLY best for this country) to skate into office. That is a decided lack of courage, and I simply don't understand it or agree with it.
You know, I agree with this. I am a Trump supporter and obviously becoming more adamant about it as this election moves forward. At this juncture, now I am even reconsidering any thought that Cruz would get a good VP choice, in fact I would not want that now.
But if, and it won’t happen anyway, Cruz got the nomination, I of course would vote for Cruz over Hillary or Sanders. But I suspect the too many behind Cruz are so full of hate now ginned into them about conspiracy theories regarding Trump working for Hillary, these Glenn Becker bonkers who are going to totally in the end ruin Cruz’s campaign and you can bank on that, too many of them would sit on their hinnies and not go out and vote in the general after Trump gets the nomination. For that I will forever hold some of these idiots like Levin who has gone becker responsible.
But then again, now that I rethink that - even if these types sit at home and don’t go out and vote, Hillary is such damaged goods even pretty much ANY Republican is going to defeat her, you watch as the Republicans are just keeping there powder dry right now as far as Hillary and you are not going to believe what is incoming as far as open warfare once the general kicks in and it is going to be bad for her, real bad, and as far as Bernie, he will lose to the Republican candidate.
So even if the Cruz types who have eaten into their own stomach lining this insane conspiracy hatred peddled by Beckers, the Republicans won’t need their vote. Hillary is going to lose the general. She is toast.
