I want both Cruz and Trump on the ticket!

It would be amazing if it could be Cruz/Trump as that would mean Cruz would be the Presidential nominee and would have unlimited financing and not waste energy raising funds.

But alas, I fear Trump wouldn’t take the VP slot... anyhoo, a Trump/Cruz ticket would still be way better than any other ticket that seems likely.

Imagine the horror of a Jeb?/Rubio ticket...arghh!

It really burns me up to see people I respect (and in some cases know) fall for the obvious GOP-e plant Carly Fiorina. People such as Michelle Hickford of Allen West, Steven Crowder (who seems to be in love), and Chicks on the Right, a moderately successful blog. They are now defending her and taking up her phony, GOPe-designed, Democrat-style “war on women” slams on Trump and defense of Kelly. Don’t they realize that Fiorina is a complete shame, a pro-amnesty, pro-common core, pro-”choice”, pro-carbon credits progressive posing as a conservative?

I’m with you, Fiorina is just so easy to spot as a GOPee devotee.

Is everybody effing blind!?

All of the Uniparty’s establishment types are terrified of Trump. They all have cozy little ‘whorehouse relationships’ with “behind the scenes” big-money puppeteers that pull the strings of both sides of the coin. They all pad their own pockets at the expense of the Average American, who they look at with distain.

Were Trump to win, he has no need for the bribery and sale of America. He will expose the bastards for what they are, whores. With a proper Attorney General, they could be a lot of people headed to prison, as well they should. Be he Conservative, Liberal or Martian, he has no need for the moneyed, shadow government types. He can expose them, as he doesn’t need the money.

If he goes third party, he will pull enough votes from voters on both sides that are sicker of the politicians, than his attitude. As third party, he has no allegiance to either side of the Uniparty. They key is that ALL voters are sick and tired of the bribery and screwing of American citizens.

Now, if Trump were to suffer an untimely demise, all the conspiracy theories that have been simmering since JFK will have been confirmed. We will know that our Nation has been stolen, and it will be time for action. We’ve been here before, and woe to the traitors.

Of course they do.

So was Goldwater.

But Goldwater never had Trump's populist appeal...something Cruz is also lacking.

I feel ya.

Her "debate" performance was nothing but nuggets of her stump speech! Certainly it wasn't the grand moment of American political oratory all the talking heads are making it out to be.

Hell, they gave money to the Democrats to run ads against Goldwater. Offered strategy too.

I also have this feeling that Cruz and Trump are quite a bit cozier than is generally recognized.

And tanked in the general.

Hardly "populist appeal."

Voters on BOTH sides are becoming aware of the absolute corruption in the District of Criminals, and they’re pissed.

As I said on another thread: "Lest we forget, many of those "bitter clingers" are unionist DEMOCRATS. In any contest between Hillary and Trump, they'll laugh at their international's recommendations."

The media is saying Fiorina won because they know she is just a Washington cartel attack dog to be unleashed against Trump.Fiorina is working to get Jeb Bush elected and then be his VP

Yeah, I think this is just Carly “showing the goods” to see if there are any “takers.”

“GOPe is the enemy. The DNC is the enemy. Soros is the enemy. ISIS is the enemy. Iran is the enemy. The marxists are the enemy. Trump is the wild-eyed warrior wading into the midst of them and drawing all their fire and clearing a path for everyone else. He’s not the enemy.”

BINGO. Well said.

That's because the "strongest GOP field in decades" is full of lackluster clowns. Watching the debate for me was like watching 7 dead lightbulbs, one dimly lit bulb (Carson) and two brightly lit ones (Cruz and Trump). The "JV" debate was sleep inducing, except for the part where Fiorina lies and says she never gave to the Clinton Foundation

yea she was ok in the debate— she wasn’t “I will remember this forever” good... I am not buying any big increase in her polls from that...
