Maybe we ought to just let the candidates plead their case first. No?

Good Question, in BLUE states like Iowa and New Hampshire where the Liberal Republicanism is Strong.
That is why those states are first in the Primary.
To get rid of our Best People.
If we did this right, the first two states would be the State with highest Percentage of Republican Voters in the Last Presidential Election, and then the Raw Highest Number.
But that wouldn't serve the interest of the GOP-E.

At this point, after nearly 8 years of Obama, we need someone who is “too conservative.”

Agree- but Ted will be out of it long before he has a chance in a general election.

Surprise!
The article and the chart come to the conclusion that Ted Cruz is NOT too conservative!
It’s ole Jeb that’s out of step in the FIRST 4 primary states!
WOO-HOO!!!

“Is Ted Cruz too conservative for Republican primary voters?”
Jeb Bush and his clones are betting on it.

Jeb looks like he’s all-in on Super Tuesday. He’s gambling. He’s got no other strategy.

I like Ted Cruz, a lot. He is the most brilliant conservative politician alive today.
I have an open mind about Scott Walker and Rand Paul. If either is the nominee I will probably be ok with it.
If Jeb Bush is the nominee then I am voting for Hillary.

Only if someone else beats him. Either Walker or Jeb, from the looks of it. He and Walker are both proven campaigners. We shall see.

Yes, because Liberals cross over in PRIMARIES.
We need caucuses with lists of truly Republican (preferably conservative) names.

Jeb is counting on “big donors” and all his money to “buy” the nomination.
News flash to Jeb: No more Bushes and we hate Common Core and his “welcome amigos.”

If he were, then the primary voters would reject him, the conservative base would put their money into his campaign and see no results, and so on...
The question is unintelligent in the extreme, and is clearly designed to sow the seed of despair in conservative hearts.
What are they so afraid of?
