What’s even MORE amazing is that the MSM keeps designating the two people NOBODY wants as the “inevitable” opponents.

OMG, did you see that fake-tan, wrinkled, age-spotted old crone at the UN yesterday? SHE is inevitably going to be President?

The "jock tax" is money that goes to the government. It should not be spent for bonds or anything else that support stadiums. Stadiums should be built by private enterprise, perhaps a public corporation that sells stock to those who choose to invest. We'd all be better off if states weren't involved in these schemes.

As far as ethanol, he should say very clearly he doesn't support ethanol, but will set up a plan so it is eased out of production. As long as he says that ethanol will be phased out in "x" years, it won't be support of ethanol.

I don’t even know why they keep listing JB first in every article. I know of no soul that doesn’t think a Bush run is ridiculous.

Has Cruz set up a 2016 exploratory committee; is he fund raising?

A) I don't know of any poll that has Bush as an 'emerging front runner'

B) I do not believe anything Walker has publicly said so far can fairly be called an 'attack' on Bush.

More fabricated news from the MSM. I don't think it'll work this time.

Yeah, you’re right. Dems do it all the time, but for the wrong reason, but don’t get called out for it.

Why don't the GOP contenders .... WORK TOGETHER AS A TEAM

They're running against EACH OTHER. So how the hell would that work?

"Why don't the GOP contenders .... WORK TOGETHER AS A TEAM

They're running against EACH OTHER. So how the hell would that work?

..... By adhering to Reagan's "11th Commandment." Refraining from backstabbing and seething personal attacks and tearing each other apart ....... sticking to discussing policies and issues. Focusing on core principals, policy and even philosophical differences without degrading the other.

.... The person who best verbally articulates best in both style and substance those important core values and how to implement the policies needed to return the country to the Constitutional foundations that it has been torn from .... should be the one who is victorious.

.... Then .... In the end, the winner is supported as a matter of duty by the rest of the GOP as a cohesive team. Heck ... Now is not the time to be dysfunctional. It's going to take an extremely united, well oiled machine to undo the destruction that has occurred over the past few terms.

... Otherwise winning the election will be almost useless. The GOP will once again be nothing more than a bookmark and a placeholder for the Socialist movement to take over once again and pick up where they left off when they regain power.

“We CANNOT work with Jeb!! He is the establishment’s Plan B if hillary becomes even less electable. Scott Walker is a bit suspect for supporting funding stadiums with tax money and for supporting ethanol. “

JMHO but the primary will come down to Bush and Walker.
Bush can’t win unless something really negative happens to the Dems and puts him over the top.
Walker may can win but I think that’s still a real long shot.
I know Cruz is a big favorite here but I don’t se him getting through the primary.
