I hate saying this,but it is the level of "worship" liberal losers had for the kenyan back in 2008.

Yep, the similarities in words/actions seem like an Obama replay of 2008 and 2012.

#538 My heart hopes you are right
My Brain and everything I sense when I listen and watch him tells me you are wrong.

If he wins we will get the answer in short order with the Court pick, Iran. Isis and How he deals with barkys EOs and the Southern border.

If he doesn’t immediately put the Border patrol back on the border and deport those getting caught sneaking in you know he was snowing us

I’m old enough to remember that Howard Baker and George Bush were considered the “Conservatives”, an Ronald Reagan was “That damned Liberal Guy!” in the 1980 election.

We know that he has been pro abortion until very recently but what changed?

Trump believes Planned Parenthood does some wonderful things [other than abortion], yet if one was to take the contents removed from the wombs of pregnant women who have received abortions at PP, and accumulate all that waste in giant drums, and then, at some point, empty those drums, the blood and baby parts would spill over the entire floor of the clinic. In other words, every square inch of a PP office is evil. So nothing has changed, in my opinion, regarding Trump's views on abortion.

Today 3,000 more [give or take] have died, and their mothers damaged [in the process] for a lifetime. My assessment is some patriots just don't understand the devastation of abortion and how it has "deformed a great nation." [See tagline.]

“So imagine $35 million of attack ads in Florida that Trump withstood in the last few weeks! And he won by almost 20%. What an achievement.”

That IS incredible. I have never seen anything quite like this in all the years I’ve been paying attention to politics.

Tell me Oh Brilliant One, what is Trumps Tax Plan? Is it a growth plan?

How lean is Trumps Campaign?

How much has he spent as compared to Cruz?

What makes you think Cruz, the Establishment Guy, can cut Fedzilla?

To: Jeff Head

Jeff, you’ve always been such a voice of reason and substance. We all have our favorites. Mine was Carson. Last time around it was Herman Cain. Both brought experience of a different kind and a positive outlook. That’s what I want back. I’ve been here since 2004 (right after Rathergate) So many here have real gifts. the discussions here have kept me going for over a decade and I have learned much. That is something worth saving.

Well said!

I agree 100%.

The only sane explanation I can think of is that Trump is the result of the “anti-political-establishment” sentiment and people are rejecting Cruz because he has been a Senator. But this is a very “low-info” attitude.

Cruz is more of an outsider than Trump based on the positions he has taken and how he has stood up to the GOPe. That has been truly impressive. People who don’t know what he’s done should look into it. If reading is too burdensome, check out some of his floor speeches on YouTube.

Trump has been in bed with politicians for years and years (Clinton wedding, Clinton donations, etc, etc. ) and mostly on the democrat side. He SAYS that he has given to both parties but the amount he has given to republicans is puny compared to what he has given to democrats. And I’m sure there was always something in it for him.

What saddens me the most here on FR is the name-calling on both sides when someone does not like the other side’s preferred candidate. (I don’t mind picking on the liberals, this is a conservative site and if they don’t like it they should go back to HuffPo or DU.) I’d like to see us stick to rational discussions amongst ourselves. Taking a cheap shot is basically admitting you’ve run out of arguments.

Do I think Cruz is perfect? No. He’s a bit too “lawyerly” and political to be my dream candidate. But I think he is the most truly conservative candidate to come along in years. And by far the most intelligent. Maybe that is what scares people.
