More WaPo-sourced fluff hyping RINO candidates. Yawn.
Yes, but look at the comments about Ted Cruz.
Just the left beginning the selection or our candidate, the candidate they know they can beat.
Bingo! Why do we never see an analysis like this of the RAT side? The reason is the dinosaur media and the RATS have already decided on their candidate. Who the hell are they to tell us what to do and think?
Yep. They’re admitting Cruz’ strength, but then ranking FIVE other candidates as having a better chance.
Paul has NO chance of being the nominee, and only one of Bush, Rubio and Christie has a chance.
Some ‘experts’ call Walker a conservative. Others call him establishment. The Media and GOP elites are trying hard to paint Walker out early.
What makes Carson a ‘social conservative’?
Cruz, quite probably the most conservative of the entire field, does not seem to make the needle move. Walker, after his well-received Iowa speech, became the leader of the pack, neck and neck with Bush. Cruz, who also have a well-received Iowa speech, did not gain much. Cruz remained in the single digit area.
Then, there is Lindsey Graham, who claims to be considering a run, but nobody seems to even notice him. Same with Peter King.
from over here under the park bench,
it looks like a contest between
tons of money (Jeb, apparently) and
who the voters want (Cruz or a couple of other possibilities to be sure)
so far, haven’t met a single person who WANTS Jeb.
this is not a personal attack on him, just saying we haven’t met anyone who wants to see him run this time... everyone prefers someone else)
but as Mark Levin said last time around..when he was ready to vote for a used orange juice tin if necessary to stop Obama....
we will see....
I am almost ready to vote for that same used orange juice in 2016 if it will stop Hillary
Several southern states are trying to get the RNC to move their primaries earlier. Currently, those primaries are late in the spring. Thus, the nominee is usually selected before those primaries are even held.
If those states succeed and get their primaries moved to early March, that could put a wrinkle in the GOP elite push to coronate their establishment selectee.
BINGO! That is the bottom line, right there.
America will get the president they deserve....
unless theres massive voter fraud... but then..
they will get what they deserve for NOT REVOLTING..
if they are cowards they need to be manipulated..
If not... then they are lazy.. or apathetic..
I think most “social conservatives” will happily support Cruz
Exactly .. and that would be Jeb Bush. The left has made the name of “Bush” very hated .. almost beyond rational .. and I am thinking the left will surely use that hatred of the Bush name to try to tarnish him.
I’ve seen it already with the mess in Iraq .. a TV person almost hyper-ventilating over their pronouncements that it was Bush who messed up Iraq and caused ISIS.
I’m confident the left is salivating over the possibilities of being able to tarnish Jeb with that info; and it may be the whole reason why they will try to keep Jeb’s name first in line (but I believe Walker is already ahead of him) .. I’ve seen it in a couple of polls.
I don’t think Carson is a conservative at all, he was still a Democrat this time last year.
We better keep our heads about us this election. We need to win. The press is going to have a field day.
I haven’t exactly made a decision on the candidates yet, waiting to hear what they have to say. However, I more or less HAVE made the decision against Jeb Bush, even before I read comments about the recent speech Jeb Bush made, which are devastating. Just reading them I had to wonder how DID that speech come off to the ones who are even CONSIDERING voting for anyone the GOP has to put up. The two comments below made me cringe.
“I had to go back to look at some of the quotes from Jeb Bush’s foreign policy speech—it couldn’t possibly be as bad as some say it was...but oh sh**, it was much, much worse. WTF are the Republicans up to—sending up one ill prepared (and I mean ill prepared as in Spicoli in ‘Fast Times At Ridgemont High’ ill prepared) wanna be candidate after another? When is the GOP going to get serious, or are they indeed happy to sit out national elections in perpetuity and depend on gerrymandered districts to hold the House? The country deserves better than that. Hell, no wonder GOP supporters are so confused.”
“I recommend that you watch video of Jeb’s speech. It is mind boggling that he would have gone out so unprepared to try to make that speech. I actually felt embarrassed for him.”
However, the main stream press say Bush is the front runner, despite trailing numbers in the polls:
I disagree- Texas has always (in my memory) been March 4, and that is way too late, by then it has already been decided, with conservatives having been already eliminated.
I’m not disputing your assertion, but do you have any reference for it?
What a joke. Does anyone really think that most of these people have even a remote chance?! Most are simply trying to get their 5 minutes and waste people’s money.
Used orange juice cans always lose.History is so clear on that.
Yawn... Go Scott Walker...
He will get tea party support.
