The RNC wants Jeb. The Republican people want Trump.

Ok, you're taking about voters. I assumed you meant the GOP establishment. My mistake.

The GOP establishment would rather have Hillary than Trump.

That's a fact.

Hell,...he barely has any GOP support. You've *got* to realize that he has no chance at the crossover vote.


I'm only making the point, that if Cruz can't win big in a State that he currently represents in Congress he has troubles.

I don't think any Rep. candidate can win with out Texas.

Scary ain't it.

We think all the dumb azz's in the country are on the demoRAT side, but plenty of proof around here that we've got our fair share.

That would certainly be the toughest one of the current top tier, but you just got to realize the alternative, 4-8 MORE YEARS OF THIS!

if Fiorina is the best the GOP can give me, then I won't care

I have zero faith in her ability to govern

Can anyone post a single poll that Canadian CRUZ is leading?

He is a distant 2nd in Texas maybe Alberta.

Here's what people want.

Less emphasis on war, more emphasis on jobs, a hard line on illegal immigration.

Most of the GOP candidates are courting the more war vote, say hardly anything about more jobs, and are at minimum very mealy mouthed about illegal immigration. If fact, most are in favor of some sort of amnesty.

To sum up, there's no conservatives running. The big money doesn't want conservatism.

Trump will be submitting a detailed plan for spending cuts this week. The rest of the crowd will simply criticize it while offering nothing of their own.

Once submitted,I believe Trump will own the primaries through Super Tuesday.

My support for Trump himself is actually lukewarm. I support his candidacy only because he's bucking the establishment which is decidedly anti-conservative, and which hates him because he's decidedly more real than they are. We'll never get real conservative government until the neocon death grip that's on the Republican establishment is broken, and Trump is the best chance for doing that at this time.
