Snap Shots of YOUR Republican Party, 21st Century Style

This just in voted by the Republican 'Values' voters, whatever that means.
Cruz for President and Carson for VP.
Did they look closely at what Ben Carson looks like or is that their way of balancing the ticket? I just cannot imagine the US led by Cruz. Washington will look like Nevada, a vast scorched desert.

I guess it says that Cruz and Carson have better "values" than The Donald. Talk about damning with faint praise.

If he becomes the newest inductee into the Zombie thread I think the Democrats have 2016 locked up, barring a Kasich rise in the polls. Hillary would trounce Rubio, particularly if she has a Latino VP who actually cares about immigrant issues.

You don't actually think this matters to the Republican primary voter, do you? Hell, they agree with him. "It's just the price of freedom."

Exactly.

He'll do just what his brother did in 2000.

Suck up to the far right to get the nomination, them pivot to the center for the general election, then back to the far right after the election.

Well this could be a liberal perspective but welcome news all the same. ABB still holds.

I think Bush will self-destruct before the general. I don't think he can be nominated...and if he does get nominated I doubt he can move to the center without losing credibility.

I would love to see their faces when someone confronts W directly about ISIS.

Go ahead make our day.
