Any conservative who can look at the facts that Trump has defended Planned Parenthood and donated money....lots of money to democrats like Hillary, Rahm, & Weiner simply isn’t the sharpest tool in the shed.

YOU give it a rest.

Continuing to flog issues the majority of conservatives have decided are not impediments to what Trump offers just means you don't understand the reasons we lose, even when we win.

Oh, good grief. Trump said AGAIN tonight that he would oppose Federal funding for PP if they continue with abortions. What more do you want? State that he will literally burn them (PP) at the stake?

Are there real, substantive questions Trump has not been asked or addressed? You bet. But I have yet to see any rabid Cruz supporters ask them.

I cannot recall when a candidate whose positions I mostly like has done more, and whose supporters have done more, to drive me away...

******************************************
The majority of conservatives aren’t voting for Trump in the primaries.

Seems many people automatically think that Southern states and evangelicals are conservative. That is so wrong.

Many evangelicals are squishy moderates like Santorem and Huckabee. Many people in Southern states are gibmedats who don’t want conservatives taking away their easy lifestyle paid for by taxpayers’ dollars.

“Continuing to flog issues the majority of conservatives have decided are not impediments to what Trump offers just means you don’t understand the reasons we lose, even when we win.”

Speak for yourself. You do NOT speak for the majority of conservatives. You may speak for the largest percentage (Trump has not won 50%) of Republican voters, but that does not make you conservative.

Trump is not a conservative. He is running on a conservative platform, asking us to vote for him. I, like many conservatives, have been open from the start.

We conservatives WILL continue to beat the drum and warn that Trump has a liberal track record, including recently. He has talked about how he can work with Pelosi, Reid, and Schumer. He has praised Planned Parenthood.

I am not saying a President Trump will not govern conservatively. I am saying he is a big gamble.

Cruz has a track record of conservatism. I do not wonder about how he will govern.
