Keep up the Cruz negativity. You could win the big screen television or the X-Box.

No,

Trump’s *supporters* (that’s the people that would actually cast a vote for Trump rather than vote for an actual conservative like Cruz) tend to be:

(1) Ron Paul lunatics
(2) Cruz Birthers
(3) People that don’t understand what true conservatism is and still won’t by supporting Trump
(4) People that think the country is too ignorant to understand real conservative ideas so the only hope is to put someone in who “talks tough” even though they act like and support liberals

Here’s the latest Pro-Trump Anti-War rant thread

It really looks like the Paulbots and Buchananites have found a home.

“I see the finalists as Bush, Cruz, and Trump.”

Same here. The reason why Trump and Cruz met in private was probably to tag team Bush and let the best man win near the finish line.

Tea party is too fractured to be meaningful this way.

TEA is dead. Libs say so.

Trump has been doing better with the more moderate wing of the party. Conservatives still don’t trust him...but they will, and soon.

Why will conservatives suddenly trust Trump? Maybe Trump followers will fall out of love with Trump. I think Trump might bring in pro life democrats before he brings in conservatives.

I'm only entering if it's better than my 46in Mexican Sony

Isn’t Palin a conservative? How come Trump has her vote?

[9YearLurker]

I can see you’ve got a real antipathy for them, but I think polls suggest you’re kind of missing what’s really going on.

[cripplecreek]

I've seen this movie before.



I'm sticking with the guy with an actual history of consistent conservatism.

Now... THIS is the poll I’m going to believe in (hee, hee). I think it’s probably an accurate percentage given the make up of those polled. Overall population of Republicans... doubtful. Still, I’ll take what I can get!

I love it when people generalize while condescending, it’s so liberal of you.

I’m a Cruz supporter. But if he doesn’t get the nomination, I hope it is Trump.

[libbylu]

They are buds. I have not seen her endorse him. I figure her for a Cruz backer. Because I am. And she has brains and bigger balls than most, what did I read today? Ones that clack against each other while walking?

“Isn’t Palin a conservative? How come Trump has her vote?”

A lot of non-Trump people are, right now, SERIOUSLY RECONSIDERING their opposition to him, just based on Palin supporting him.

It is virtually impossible to call Trump a fake, while Palin is supporting him, front-and-center.

[cripplecreek]

I figure her for a Cruz backer.

I agree. Too many people assuming that an agreement on an issue or two is an endorsement. Its not. So far there have only been a few written endorsements. Ted Cruz has endorsements from Louie Gomhert and Mike lee among others and Rand Paul has Justin Amash in his corner.

All part of the group that repealed Obamacare as they promised last year. /s

So those 4 could have done it all by themselves?

So tell me, is life easier or harder when you’re a freakin moron?

[magna carta]

Cruz has me nervous on the 40 mil roaming. It will take a TOUGH one to do that job. Cruz will find a way to grant a “legal” stay here for them is my main concern then the free trade issue.

[ripnbang]

Ok, I’ll play. Why don’t you tell us?

[cripplecreek]

Donald Trump does have one clear endorsement.



Take your pick, both are just as good. LOL
