The fact that establishment Republicans don't like Senator Paul is a major plus in my decision. They don't like Cruz either... Wrong... They HATE Cruz with a passion.

Cruz will run if Paul runs.
Cruz's job is to split the vote of the libertarian element in the GOP in order to deny Paul the nomination.
YKW doesn't want Paul to get any traction..

Not sure there has been a candidate I wanted since 1980, odds are there won't be this time either.
Same BS different day (election)

Anyone else notice that Paul and Cruz (both self proclaimed pillars of conservative freedoms) were out speechifying and politicing last weekend instead of standing with the true American Conservatives down in NV? Was karl rove there?

I still can't wait the open primary states when so many pound the same drum they did 8 years prior 'Get out and vote to keep Hillary out'
Congratulations idiots, you kept Hillary out and gave Obama the nomination.

Yep. I'm talking about letting the biotch win in 2016 if certain conservatives don't get their own personal savior in the race for president.

Why does every article about a potential presidential candidate mention Cruz? Hmmmmm.....

I can go you one vote can make a difference, but votes DEFINITELY can be wasted. Gave us Klinton....
We can keep Larry Root and all his idiotic blabber and user names on here, but we can't get Ralph back..... Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, over....

Vote for whomever you like in the primaries. But then vote for whomever the Republicans nominate in the general election.
If everyone had done that in 2012, then Obama would have been history and Holder would probably be in jail like Jesse Jackson's son. Instead 4 million Republicans stayed away from the polls. That's the same as a vote for Obama.
Don't blame me. I voted for Trump.
Democrats would burn this country to the ground, if they could rule over the ashes.

The same happened in 2008 and 2004, and the same will happen in 2016 if a "moderate" RINO runs against the Democrat. Remember what they say about repeating a behavior and expecting different results.

And whose ignorance does that show?
Not only the RINO's, but the voters as a whole. The voters can stop this, and turn it around, but complacency will get us nowhere.
Especially if we want a 3rd party to have a legit chance at winning a major election.
Personally I"d be happy with R being true to the party as a start.
I'll still refuse a 3rd party that has no chance or a D OR not voting at all.

I will endorse the most Conservative candidate who has a decent chance of winning. It will not be a third party or democrat candidate.

Was karl rove there? Nope,,, I guess my point is, they're "ALL" bought and paid for politicians by the time they get to Washington. Only difference I can really see is that Paul will actually answer a yes/no question with a yes or no but he still has a fair amount of flip-flop in him. It's in their DNA.

Make conservatives happy with a conservative candidate, or make the Democrats happy by throwing the election sans nominating another squish.
