"Constitutional conservative" is a made up phrase that has means, Shiite Conservative, Checkbox Conservative, or Doctrinaire Conservative.
For the first time since Ronald Reagan, we have a constitutional candidate running for the GOP nomination.
Reagan was a practical conservative. Real world, get things done, get 80% and come back for the rest at a later time.
This man was elected by conservatives to go to Washington and stand up to the elites that no longer listen to the American people. He didn't go to Washington and "fall in" with the crowd. He went there and stood up to them just like he said it would - calling a spade a spade.
It is a good quality, but leadership also means moving the ball forward and scoring points. Ted is strong in many areas, but calling names and trying to block things is not the same as leading where people follow you.
I'm sorry, but I don't understand how otherwise intelligent people can fall for the likes of Donald Trump.
I think it is because people love their country. Patriots are like that.
This man was donating to the same people we were fighting to throw out of office the last eight years.
Businessman.
He is not an outsider. He has been greasing the palms of the slime bags in Washington for 30 years.
As an outsider.
He can't even define what conservatism is.
Got news for you. If you think conservatism is checking the most boxes, you don't need the Presidency. A small diner will hold your team as your list gets longer.
The hate I see on Free Republic for Ted Cruz, Mark Levin and all the other great conservative leaders remind me of liberal websites. It is disgusting.
No reason to hate either guy. You just hated Trump. A mirror may be in order.
Is this your opus?
There dream is real is yours?
