No need to mention her.

She IS the reason!

Numbers don't lie, politicians do.

I prefer a man, but sorting through the current crop of congressman I don’t find but a handful of them.

I have no preference between male and female candidates, or black, white, or Asian. I despise Obama because he’s pure red, and I love Sarah because she’s pure red, white, and blue. I like Rand because he’s likely better than we’ll be able to get otherwise from the GOP. I fear Hillary because she’s likely more competent than what we’ll get from the Democrats otherwise. I don’t discriminate based on race or sex, a stance that makes me a bigot in the eyes of liberals who see everything as race-centered or from the feminist perspective.

Agreed that Cruz, at this point in time, appears as a genuine conservative with a fine mind, adequate voice, and a strong spine. May he inspire other conservatives to stand and dedicate themselves to public service.

SARAH PALIN is the only woman that has surfaced that is qualified to be President. There are only a handful of men alive that qualify. We are rife with a government of unqualified tyrants... few are even knowledgeable on how to govern. Our current state of affairs are a prime example. America will elect a woman... most likely... and usher in the end of our republic... her name is that of the hildebeast... owned by hell, inc., just as the current tyrant-in-chief is.

I pray every day that I am wrong and I pray for the salvation of America and our way of life... one of traditional American values and a return to GOD for a nation that has grown GOD-less.

I agree 10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000% about Cruz. I will venture to say that Cruz is the only man in DC with morals and total honesty. He is a true conservative... a man of Reaganism... a true believer. He is an honorable man... only a handful exist in DC and this one appears to be immune to the progressive cancer that is eating away Conservatism in men like Ryan, Paul and Rubio.

How did we get there? The female voters who think with their hearts and not their minds.

Or maybe the female voters who vote between their legs instead of between their ears...

Ryan, Paul and Rubio

I fear that these three are suffering from a bout of Potomac fever and have calculated that they have a better run at the nomination with Karl Rove's money than with the support of a righteous but limited number of conservatives.

I didn’t read it. I suspect from the title and the source that it is more wishful bricklaying for a Hillary run.

“Voters Prefer Female Candidates”.

Think about Pelosi, Feinstein, etc. Really? These women are dumber than dirt and we “prefer them”? Then there is “what difference does it make” Hitlary the liar who wants to be president.

Not in my lifetime do I prefer any of these type!

Palin, Gov. Jan Brewer etc., that is a different story.

OK, let’s look at a female politician and her constituency.....Nancy Pelosi. She’s a drunk, loud-mouthed, arrogant, greedy half-wit. But enough about how her family describes her. Has she been elected because she’s female? Or has she been elected by her constituency to steal from the public treasury for them?

“Understand yourself and understand your opponents and in one hundred battles you will not be defeated.”

Every day, I read Free Republic and I see the articles about how the Democrats are socialists and Moslems. They are just a bunch of dirty little thieves.

At this point, Cruz is the only one I would consider supporting.
