“I gotta oppose Rand...”

No, no you don’t. He will be the GOP candidate that will attract both the potheads AND the Pick Perry gay cowboy constituencies that will lead to victory.

Love or hate Paul, he’s still by far the most radical about the budget. An overweight government will, surprise surprise, soon learn to throw its weight around.

I guess you wouldn’t vote for Ronald Reagan either...you know, the guy that:

1. Allowed abortion in CA.
2. Allowed “no fault” divorce in CA.
3. As POTUS, signed an amnesty bill into law.

“The only reason I am still registered Republican so so I can vote against any GOPe candidates “

Then why don’t you be more honest and get out of the republican party.

“Cruz.
Gowdy.
Lee.”

Gowdy ? Never heard of him. Lee ? Barely heard of him.

Both need to run and finish 2nd then have the name recognition for 2020.

Cruz has name recognition. He would easily finish 2nd in 2016 and be in line for 2020. But the inexperience tag would hurt him in 2016. He looks more like a 2020 candidate.

2016 is looking a lot like 1968 only with the parties reversed. Hillary is looking a lot like Nixon. I mean who is more Nixonion than Hillary. Bush is looking a lot like Humphrey. Martin O’Malley is taking the place of Spiro Agnew. And a possible 3rd party run will take the place of George Wallace.

Nixon aka Hillary eeks out a win.

You call me a turd ball and I am to be zotted ?

Anybody can vote for who ever they please.

However I don’t think a person should be in a party to vote against the party all the time.

IF the two (or three) candidates are BOTH running in the GOP primary then it is impossible to vote against the GOP? GET IT?

she said

“Come November, I will vote, but will not vote for any race with a GOPe candidate.”

Sorry but we win 90% of the primaries. That is how you become the establishment.

She is saying she will not vote in the general election for what she claims is her party 90% of the time.

That means to me, she should find herself another party.

Walker’s been to Iowa, I think, he is mentioned a lot. A good reelection margin would be a boon to him.

I detest Perry, he made Bush seem articulate.

“His Rickness” exudes sexiness!

OTOH, you’re right, he makes “W” look like a charter MENSA member.

It’s the electorate I don’t recognize, nevermind the candidates. HA!

How about the Florida boys?

I read only a headline where Rubio just wants to come in second! Probably behind Jeb Bush coming in first. ,!

To me, that means you should try to earn her vote so you don't keep losing elections with your candidates. What will you do to make that happen?

Walker, Rande, Cruz, Pence - all worthwhile candidates.

Bush, Rubio, etc. - yuck.

She does not have an open mind.

We will go after the persuadable people first.

Do you want to “look me in the eye” and say she is persuadable ?

She has pledged to never vote for GOPe no matter what.

Even most democrats are not that hard core.
