We are going to have a great candidate and we're going to crush Hillary in the election!

Did you ever think in your life you would see a GOP Primary where every one of the Money candidate lost and the insurgency won?

[Jim Robinson]

That’s what I’ve been trying to say. It’s a voter rebellion.

[Luircin]

Gonna work on it.

Not easy.

Right now my goal is if I am hit, to hit back exactly once and then ignore.

Once the candidate is chosen, I suspect that the usual suspects for causing strife will either disappear or get the zot if they can’t maintain a minimum level of civility.

As much as I think Trump should put Kasich on the ticket to guarantee Ohio (bad memories of Romney strategy to make a play for Wisconsin and Iowa while losing Ohio, Virginia, and Florida) I cannot help but notice the impressive turnout being generated by having both Trump and Cruz in the race. If they could find it in themselves to come together, not for the sake of the party, but for the sake of the country, we would all be well served. Whichever one bothers someone on FR, it can be credibly argued that they lead enthusiastic voters, albeit we shall see not in equal numbers. Nonetheless, we need all those voters, and with them, we will win and make America great again.

Well I apologies, I never thought I would live to see it.

I am stunned by it all. I had given up hope.

Thank you Jim!!!

Tentative delegate total as of 03/05/2016 10:00pm PST.

May change slightly over next 24 hours.

[unlearner]

Amen, brother.

Time to unite behind Cruz, Trump, or both. (One can still hope.)

Let’s hope Rubio either drops out or is essentially sidelined by the 15th, and the two remaining anti-establishment, pro-conservative candidates can settle this primary like gentlemen. (And their supporters.)

With all due respect, did you read the post?!?!

[Freedom56v2]

Yeah, can I call Rubio Cabana Boy?

[Freedom56v2]

Perhaps this should be put on pings...I just saw this, but many may not...

Thank you Jim! We all need to work together, stand united and Remember Who We Are. We have a grave and righteous responsibility on November 8. On that day, we assert ourselves at the ballot box. If we fail at our mutual endeavor, we shall indeed enter a thousand years of darkness. Will we then be duty bound to save our Sacred Republic by watering the tree of liberty?

No "I'm not voting" this time. We are at war with Hillary Clinton and the left. If she retains leftist power, the demise of America will escalate. We have to work together in the general election.

[catbertz]

Amen! I’ve been getting so stressed out reading these threads with all the trash talking. Humorous stuff I can enjoy, but the downright hateful stuff is just killing my spirit of excitement for this election. This is our chance to overcome the last eight years of nightmares come to life.

[John Valentine]

Apparently you are wrong on all cou ts.

[SunkenCiv]

****ed right.

Donald Trump / Ted Cruz / 2016

Thanks very much, dearest Jim and thanks very much for the pings KC_Lion and xzins.

I’ve read through your thread and couldn’t help but to notice the absence of the worst offenders. *sigh*

I only hope they’ve read your thread and will silently take heed.

Rampant hate and warring words have only served to rob our hearts and inflict unnecessary pain and grief. The same applies to those articles and idiot opinion pieces meant to incite.

Vicious Romney on behalf and at the behest of the GOP-E may have damaged Mr. Trump, (however temporary or not) but I think Saturday’s four primary results proved that voters solidly rejected the Establishment’s Rubio ... LOL.

I’m happy to call Primary Saturday a WIN WIN!

2 for Cruz. 2 for Trump. 0 for Rubio/Romney

[Windflier]

Our own Freeperis Emeritus speaks to our better hearts and minds yet again.

Thank you, Jim.

May we all support our chosen candidate with vim and vigor, but unite behind the eventual winner, leaving all hard feelings and negativity in the past.

[QuigleyDU]

With all due respect, did you read the post?!?!

With all due respect did you?!?!

The good news, 80% of R votes cast are anti-establishment.
The problem, how to unite Trump and Cruz voters without alienating enough to give Hillary the win?

Like it or not a Trump/Cruz ticket is a winner. Trump/Cruz win FL and OH.
A Cruz/Trump ticket is a loser because Trump will not be anybody’s V.P.
Cruz without Trump loses FL and OH.

Hillary is not going to walk away without any negatives attached to her campaign. She is compromised because some of those emails may still be floating someplace, even other countries which could come back to haunt her. Someone could release information from hacks or go to her and threaten to release those document, if she does not do what is demanded.
