What you speak of concerning the election carries total truth and I am humbled to have met you that one time on the border, humbled.

But, the rebellion has not started and calling the reality TV talk that is going on over this election a "rebellion" approaches dishonoring the Cowboy that was murdered in Montana by the hired FBI thugs

The real rebellion starts when #nomorefreewacos exist and payback starts to unfold on these thugs that think they can murder an unarmed Patriot then partially unclothe a 59 year old woman and make her sit in the snow for several hours, daring her to get up so that they could waste her and the man with her as well.

No, when these traitors that have sold out the American Citizen are hanging from lamp posts up and down the beltway, then the rebellion has truly started. Other than that, all this stuff is just reality TV to add smoke and mirrors to an already smoke filled room so that they can strip us of more of our freedoms.

So much what you said ... Disrupt the media, disrupt the mandarin federal unions, disrupt the ghettos ... time for all of them to get back in the back of the bus and let the adults drive.

Going to be interesting for sure. I’m not so sure there is much crossover between Trump and Cruz though. For me, I am not excited in the least in voting ideology expressed as “100% conservative” or otherwise. I’m not reading the labels. I am not very excited about voting against anyone either, though it might become a factor. Pretty much it is the rebellion for now. I don’t see that Cruz rallying us types. Wrong kind of “100%” rating this go around, and he doesn’t channel Trump very well for me. I “got” no connection there, plus part of the rebellion is being called stupid. They don’t get it, at least yet.

My fear is that some will again stay home and we’ll end up with Socialist. Or a brokered convention and we’ll get to vote for Bush.

For the first time since 1984 I am going to vote for a Presidential candidate instead of against one.

As a life-long so-called “principled” conservative, who gets accused of preaching to the choir, quoting the founding documents, talking about unalienable rights, enumerated powers, checks and balances, etc. I’m a little shocked to hear myself saying this, but - I don’t think we need a Reaganesque principled conservative POTUS right now.

Maybe if we were confused about what direction to go, and on the verge of going down the wrong path, maybe then we’d need a conservative scholar to sort it out and articulate it to the befuddled masses. But the nation has gone so far left I don’t think anyone is befuddled at all, the vast majority knows exactly what we need to do - throw the rascals out, cut the government way back, replace political correctness with common sense and build up the defense. We don’t need someone smart enough to explain the conservative principles - most of the people’s eyes would glaze over - we need someone with balls and common sense to say “you’re fired!!” I can’t wait.

A good post and I mostly agreed with you up until the last line:

“Either way, we win, they lose..”

The problem is, it isn’t going to be “either way we win.”

What a lot of folks on the right wing in general and FR in particular are ignoring or missing is the terrible results for us on the ‘rat side of the fence in NH. It’s obvious that piaps will not be the rat nominee, and as such our side isn’t going to have an easy candidate to defeat. If piaps were to be the ‘rat nominee, I believe that Donald Trump would easily win, and Ted Cruz could probably win. With Bernie or another substitute “populist”like fauxahontas, Trump will have a challenge and Cruz would almost certainly lose the general.

What FReepers tend to forget is that our forum here is in no way reflective of the views of the country as a whole. If it were, we wouldn’t be discussing Trump versus Cruz, we would be discussing Vice President Palin’s campaign for President. Bernie is no joke. He is very popular amongst the 47% of the population that willard infamously identified, and his supporters will give it their all to get him elected. Any rat candidate starts with a fairly large electoral vote advantage, and Bernie will have a much easier time of unifying the left than either Cruz or Trump will on the right.

So given that this is going to be a tough slog, who do you pick? The candidate with imagination and the ability to appeal to voters outside the traditional right wing circles, or do you pick the one that is most consistently appealing to that small portion of the populace who are full bore conservative?

The choice is easy. Unless you want to feel the bern, you pick the candidate who might not meet the rigid standards of the People’s Temple of Conservative Purity, but who has a fair chance of delivering something that looks like conservatism.

And your response to this latest Trump tweet?

Remember, it was the Republican Party, with the help of Conservatives, that made so many promises to their base, BUT DIDN'T KEEP THEM!

Sorry, but with comments like this latest one, I just can't trust Trump. He betrays conservatives with his words now. What's to stop him from betraying us with his deeds, should he win the nomination?

Jim,
I made up my mind that they're all unprincipled, so none of them can back us out of tyranny by diminishing the power of the Executive Branch. I just may vote for Trump on the grounds that he's the only sob who practices freedom of speech. Ayn Rand memorably said that as long as there is free speech, we have a chance to save the country. Trump is opening doors, windows, and the field of candidates are noticeably following his lead. Trump is not a Constitutional Republican, but none of the really are. Cruz's passion for liberty and law is laudable, but does not make him a laissez-faire Capitalist. So if Trump stays uncensored giving confidence to we, the people, to speak openly without fear, I may vote for him. Sorry for the long post but I liked everything you said.
