Perhaps we just like Trump better.

I have no problem with that. That's healthy. I've been more than a little disgusted, though, with those who go full vitriol on Cruz... on FR of all places.

Liking Trump better is one thing.

But damning Cruz to hell with nasty words and imagery ... is something completely different.

Perhaps. But if that were the only rational wouldn't most of us be excited to have two viable candidates that we could collectively support? Instead, the level of irrational vitriol on FR is emblematic of something you would see on DU.

FR has, among most conservatives, has had a reputation for having conservative ideological people post logical, fact based and reasoned opinion. There are some VERY intelligent and knowledgeable people that post on FR. Often times there is a lot to learn. I have been swayed on several occasions to reconsider and/or do further research on positions I have held, thanks to rational discussion here. But there is certainly a level of emotional insanity that follows this primary cycle that really should not be so vitriolic.

For lots of reasons.
