[Charles H. (The_r0nin)]

What I find interesting is that you are talking about principles to people that don't have any. Do a posting search (after you click on a poster's name, click "In Forum" up at the top) on many of the most vociferous Trump supporters here, the ones that throw around ad hominems and insults. Go back 6 months or so, or back to the government shutdown. Many of them were praising Cruz for standing up to Obama and McConnell.

So, as soon as a populist like Trump comes along, they change their tune. Someone who they were praising for standing up for conservative ideals, now is not a conservative to them. They blow with the popular wind. Why would they value principles, when they don't have any themselves...?

It is quite unfortunate. I pray that after Cruz wins, FR will settle down to what it once was.
