“Is Dave Brat a squishy moderate?”
“Dunno.”

You could check out his voting record. I don’t know how anyone could contend there is no conservative in Congress if they haven’t checked out their records.

“By their fruit you will recognize them.”

I agree. A candidate’s past is likely to tell us a lot about their future.

“So show me.”

You’ll have to show yourself by doing your own research. You wouldn’t believe it from anyone else.

“Does Donald Trump qualify as a conservative?”. “We’re going to find out, aren’t we?”

Possibly.

“Regardless of what Donald is or is not, we certainly know what our government is not, and we also know that our government doesn’t want him at all.”

The “government” is the collective body of all government officials, some of whom have said they are not supporting Trump, some are supporting Trump, and some haven’t declared.

“So I’m going to do my best to give them what they do not want.”

Some of the “government” has come out in favor of Trump. So you will be giving some of them what they do “want”.

“Is it possible that Donald will disappoint me? Sure.
Have all the others already disappointed me? Yep.
So now he gets a shot.”

Cruz would disappoint if elected to the presidency, as would Kasich and Trump. I think we can take that to the bank.

“Too damn bad for them, and you too it would seem.”

“Too d**n bad” for any of us if whoever is the nominee can’t beat the Hildebeast and then oversee a return to smaller government, individual responsibility, and more freedom.

I personally do not put much weight, if any, in a person’s voting record.

Votes are staged. No votes are allowed to those who may need them so long as the agenda advances.

Those sites that rate person X as 93% conservative don’t mean anything to me. They should all get 0% as far as I am concerned, but they have not advanced the conservative agenda at all.

What they actually seem to do is bottle it up and make sure that it goes nowhere, but we feel good voting for them because of phony show votes they arrange for us.

They are trying, but they just can’t. Poor guys get defeated 100% of the time.

Yeah right.

As far as who can or cannot beat Hillary in the fall, it is very clear to me that Cruz cannot and is not going to.

He cannot even win the nomination. He is not a good candidate and has no obvious leadership qualifications whatsoever.
