This time, we have a frontrunner. Cruz' only competition is Paul. But I think Cruz will prevail over him fairly easily.

I'm sorry, honest, but ... wake up. If so, great -- but really, what are the odds? If the next primaries go forward like the last ones, we're going to be exactly where we were when Romney got the nomination in 2012. What are you going to do then?

I don't have as much faith in that system as you do. I'm saying that unless something drastically changes, be prepared for a Christie-like nominee in 2016. And consider the problem now because it's headed our way.

It's not that I have faith in the system, it's that, for the first time since Reagan, there isn't an obvious next-RINO-in-line. Christie Kreme is no Bob Dole, if you know what I mean. He'll get the Establishment money, but the Collaborator presidential machine is running behind schedule. And Cruz has taken the opportunity to take center stage.

Also, in the first time since Reagan, we have another Reagan: Cruz.
