"We finally now have, on display, someone who can cheerfully, confidently, happily articulate conservatism in a charismatic, positive way," Limbaugh said on his radio program last March.

"Somebody who's not afraid of it. Somebody who's not ashamed of it.

Somebody who doesn't see any need to qualify it or to make excuses for it." Rush Limbaugh, Spring 2015

He will win in all 57 states.

Trump is at 30 percent in the last poll for Alabama, with Jeb at 15. Didn’t see where Cruz was.

[VinL]

So?

Donald Trump leads Alabama primary poll

"The Strategy Research poll found Trump leading the Republican field with 30 percent support. His nearest challenger, former Florida Governor Jeb Bush, was way back at 15 percent. Bush was followed by Ben Carson and Marco Rubio each at 11 percent. Former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee, who won the Alabama primary in 2008 on the strength of evangelical voters, polled just 8 percent. Carly Fiorina was also at 8 percent, followed by Texas Senator Ted Cruz who polled at 7 percent support."

This was last week.

Didn’t see where Cruz was.

7th place at 7%.

What’s your point?

The south has been pining for a northeastern liberal who says their flag belongs in a museum.

Moreover, Cruz's cash was raised in small amounts from many individual donors, a clear sign of deep and wide support cross the nation.

Uh, I'm pretty sure he was at the Koch party with his hand out not long ago. What was that about?

Here's the Alabama poll.

Trump 30, Bush 15, Carson 11, Rubio 11, Fiorina 8, Huckabee 8, Cruz 7, Walker 3

[Georgia Girl 2]

I love Cruz but he’s just not getting the traction. This nomination is Trump’s to lose. Unless he commits an unforced error Trump will likely make it to the Whitehouse.

[Drew68]

What’s your point?

My point? As of last week, Cruz is not winning in Alabama. Not even coming close.

So?

[cripplecreek]

Remember in 04 when all the polls had all but declared John Kerry the winner?

Simple folks believe that crap.

[hoosiermama]

How many of these states are winner take all? Is our team setting up a 1-2 punch, thereby setting up a squeeze play?

[nascarnation]

Alabama has an open primary so you know Bush will do very well.
If I was a betting man, I’d say Bush will be the winner, powered by Democrat Op Chaos 2016.

Now if Hillary continues to degrade, and the Dems actually have to vote in their own primary, the outcome will be different.

So, I think Trump will win Alabama. And in the general too.

Right, I remember when Rush announced on his Radio show how he met with GW Bush before his first run as President and that he was a conservative...He wasn't/isn't

Those also sound like the same (exact?) words he once used to describe Scott Walker...

The AL liberal Republican governor, Bentley, has endorsed Kasich.
