    But by not selecting a candidate how will the delegates know what candidate voters want? I'd rather have seen our Caucus moved to after the 15th then.

    I still believe that the new rule was meant to prop up the eGOP and whatever Jeb! like creature they want.



    I have kind of a radical idea for how I'd like to see primaries/caucuses done:


    • None of this "early primary" crap. ALL 51 primaries/caucuses would be held on the same day, either 6, 9 or 12 months before actual election day (I prefer 6 or 9, but I ain't picky).
    • ALL caucuses and primaries would be "closed" (no more liberal New Hampshire Democrats picking the Republican candidate).
    • I would prefer no more caucuses. All be primary elections (but I'm a states rights kinda guy and if some states want to caucus instead of vote let 'em have it). I'd also prefer these primary elections be done as "preference voting" since you'll generally have more than 2 candidates.

    Modern liberalism is based on the idea that reality is obligated to conform to one's beliefs because; "I have the right to believe whatever I want".

    Wow
    You'd think Cruz would do more to distance himself from Beck.

    The list of choices reminds me of taking a client out to lunch at a steak house in TX back in 1989. He really wanted to go to this place for lunch, and the client is always right, so off we go to some famous steak house. I'm a lifelong vegan….

    I'd manage to pick a candidate, but it'd require some creativity, much like a vegan ordering lunch at a steakhouse.

    I'll pull the lever for Satan over Hillary, so whomever is on the opposing side of the ballot come November gets my vote.

    Just out of curiosity, what would a vegan eat in a Texas steakhouse? A plate of Ice?

    Though unaffiliated, I would chose anyone that's not a career politician over anyone that is.

    Carson is thoughtful and deliberate. Too bad that comes off as ignorant often.

    And simply don't trust Trump. Who would want (another) yuuuugggge egomaniac as president?

    It's a measure of the civility in this country that no ones seems to fear constantly pissing off the people who own lots of guns.
