RE :”
Those are the numbers I saw this AM. Pretty sure wife had Fox on. Cruz was in 4th place. It is very early.’ So Bernie Sanders has a chance??

I agree.
You always have the guys that are smarter than everyone else, who still think doing the same old thing will get us something better than Dole, Bush, McCain, and Romney.
I may be dumb as a box of rocks, but even I can see the old tried and true way isn’t going to cut it this election cycle.

No matter who gets the nomination, they all need to vote for either Cruz or Rubio or whoever it is but Bush. I just think that we are done if Hillary gets in.

You know what, I don’t mind that at all. I understand and identify with your comment.
Just as well get it on the record. Maybe someone will remember this in 2024.
Don’t hold your breath.
Yep, 2024 will be our next chance, if the dupe in 2016 and 2020 doesn’t take a —— on the nation in October of 2024, like Bush did in 2008.
I’ll likely be dead before we get another chance to get a Conservative president if we don’t do it in 2016.

If we don’t elect a conservative in 2016, we may all be gone without ever seeing another conservative in the White House. It’s that important, imho.

That’s right.
Right now, it’s the culmination of this same concept playing out since President Ronald Reagan.
People would do well to consider that, and get serious this time around.
If I would have stated what I am now, when Reagan left office, who would have believed that from that day on we would nominate the likes of Dole, Bush, McCain, and Romney?
Well, I’m stating it now. Okay folks, do you want another period like the one from Reagan until now?
If not, wake the hell up and get your act together.
If someone is lying to you, just realize you want that drug and, “Just say no.”

It’s intersting that political insiders in Iowa and S,C. give the edge to Cruz by a good margin. I don’t know how much value polls have at this point, but grassroots people on the ground are usually pretty accurate.

Iowa is a caucus state, so polls mean less and people with lots of personal contacts mean a lot more. Cruz may have an ‘edge’, but is still likely to finish behind Walker, who has the backing of Gov. Branstad’s establishment.

So am I.
Read my lips folks. I’m not going to vote for a Republican(d).
If you want Hillary, put up a liar, or a moron on immigration policy. I’ll stay home.
If someone wants my vote this time around, they’re going to have to earn it.

RE:”

I dont know how much value polls have at this point, but grassroots people on the ground are usually pretty accurate.’ Maddow played a clip of Ron Paul groupies in 2008 chasing a FNC camera crew and Hannity yelling ‘Fox Sucks....’ because Ron was excluded from a RNC debate.
