The GOP elite tried to start floating Jeb Bush but quickly realized that dog won’t hunt so now they are grooming Crispy to foist off on us in 2016 just like Mitt in 2012.
It is imperative not to allow this to happen again. We cannot let the the GOP leadership pick the candidate in 2016. Cruz and Paul are the only viable choices. Anybody else is going to be same old same old. Might as well just let Hillary win, push us past the tipping point and kickoff the rebellion.
Paul is great but too tied to his father.
Sarah, I'm just not sure she has the stomach for it.
Mike Lee is lower on the radar screen, but I think would be a softer spoken version of Ted Cruz. He might bring in a few more moderate squish votes, but he would lose an equal number of Hispanic pride votes. Plus, I don't think he has any interest.
The political reality is that we need at least one female or minority on the ticket.
But we first have to unite behind any of these four to prevent the Michelin Man from a GOPe coronation.
What's wrong with Mike Lee?
