Yes
“And a message isnt always necessary to win an election; as we saw with the campaigns of Jerry Ford, Bob Dole, John McCain and Mitt Romney”
Hmmmm....a message apparently IS necessary : )
Rand Paul is a significant message carrier, if not the most significant.
Another think about it article ?
You mean “sit down and toke up?”
This guy has a point. It seems original thought is coming primarily from these three sources.
However, what does this make of Walker / Christie who have stood up to the status quo public sector power brokers?
That’s a message also.
No, I mean the government is out of control, too big message. That we are rapidly approaching a point where our liberties and freedoms will no longer be recoverable without violent revolution. I mean bringing up issues like the NSA, Patriot Act, warrantless home invasions, and police brutality on citizens of all races. I mean a message of the principles our country was founded upon. That message.
Scott Walker Carries a powerful message that the unions and leftists can be fought and defeated in actual fact, as opposed to rhetoric and intention, and that fiscal irresponsibility that bankrupts can be overcome because what Walker accomplished in Wisconsin did just that.
Yeah, and I’d doubt he’d vote for the Iran treaty like Cruz did.
Shrewd of Sen. Cruz to meet with Trump. If the Donald is sucking up all the media coverage overshadowing all other candidates, then go to where the spotlight is shining and steal the show. Only Ted Cruz can out-troll Trump. ;)
Thought you might find this interesting!
Cruz is the only candidate that can restore our Constitutional Free Republic, no others has near the same understanding of what it will take.
Sanders is a self admitted Communist
Trump is a Con Man and is in the process of conning many conservatives, he has a history that goes back a lot further than the last two weeks, many conservatives are acting like the past doesn’t matter; they are enthralled with his speech, to me it is reminiscent of obama and how so many were fooled/conned by his words, that is not to compare the two other then their ability to Con so many so fast, those who put FEELINGS before THINKING.
I too like hearing Trump especially on illegals and trade but his current speech is in no way congruent with his past, he has tapped into the emotions of those of us who are angry and frustrated the most crucial aspect of running a con, he admitted himself he had no idea the power of words until he said what he said about illegals just off the top of his head, he got an unexpected reaction, I to agree with him, but it is not congruent with what he said in the past, he is useful in this campaign but he is not what he is making himself out to be, what you see is not what you will get. Would it not be great if your fast food burger meal looked like it does in the pictures over the counter and didn’t leave that lump in your gut.
I’ve posted similar comments on Trump and was criticized, such criticism only confirms I am right about this, you can fool some of the people some of time, and right now Trump is doing that, we will see before this is over how the mighty are fallen, if conservatives will think instead of reacting to the emotional foolishness of the charlatan, this is not the time to get played.
Now the criticism I’ve receive about my comments on Trump was based on a few words extracted from the entire context, such practice is self delusion and will get no response from me, it is just another demonstration on how emotions and feelings are leading some people.
LOL!
Thanks for the ping. Bookmarking to read later.
Yeah....unfortunately, Pander’s message is the same message as his dad’s.
Is Rand Paul still running ?
: )
tomorrow........ trump will make Cruz an offer he can’t refuse
are your chances for President better in 20 or 24 as sittingvice president or as a US Senator? is the question Trump will put
the assumption, likely in fact, is that Cruz while running hard is doing so for experience and name recognition.
the combine will likely carry Texas and New York...... throw in Iowa, South Carolina and the southern block and well... Trump did the deal
That’s what he does, make deals

“Rand Paul is a significant message carrier, if not the most significant.”
Cannot argue that. His message is that the DEMOCRATS need more voters and more votes. This includes felons, who presently cannot vote. He also doesn’t seem to have a problem with Democrats voting multiple times, hence his opposition to Voter ID.
So yes, he is a message carrier - I just wish he were on our side.
