Trump is a candidate that I can really get exited for. None of the others really seem like a change from the status quo that will bring new ideas to the table, or even try to reshape the table or anything.

Trump is the last free man running. He says what he wants to say, when he wants to. The more that I think about it, he may even be the last free man in America. He doesn't have to change to get the donations to come in, or appease politically correct newscasters, or even get the GOP itself to like him. It's one of those runs that happens once in a lifetime and I'm not missing out on it.

There are a lot of people out there who wouldn't normally call themselves Democrat - but they voted for Obama twice.

That's had a whole bunch of negatives, obviously.

But is Trump the right wing Obama?

Is advocating Trump just as much a personality cult things as the personality cult that surrounded Obama? (which reality has now collapsed, but it worked to get him power.)

Just speculating here.

People are not voting for being responsible humans or for Reason anymore. The TV format is just like a boxing match. It is not about ideas, but who can have the msm behind them and who can have an amazing twitter and facebook campaign...

Trump was the darling of the democrats AND the republicans. Today only the end game counts. And right now it is about who can, not stop, but at least slow down the damages done by the rodeo clown at the WH.

Ted Cruz, IMHO, should be the logical choice if conservatives were using their gray matter. But as I said it is a game show. Brain power does not matter. The Man wants to see a bush/clinton fight. The people do not.

Let's see if biden gets into the ring.
