They have basically created this whole issue on their own.
They have created so much fake anger and lied to there base so much that they have created a huge group of uninformed reactionary right wing nuts!
How scary is it when they want Cruz as the "sane" candidate?
The GOP is a crazy group. Uninformed and needing Fox News and Rush and Bill O to tell them how to think.
I love them freaking out and being shocked when this is exactly what they created.

Cruz or Rubio won't get the turnout.....Trump is a bull in a fine China shop. Regular politics don't work on him, he's in the gutter gutter.
We're talking guerilla warfare.
If the GOP can't stop him, the D will not have an easy route to destroy him.

(11,949 posts)I just switched from republican to Democratic registration. Long time coming and should have been sooner. My republican friends are not willing to follow me to the 'dark side' but they all swear they will not vote for Trump. Nor Cruz but my friends are not evangelicals.
As far as my family and acquaintances who are really right wing I really think that 8 years of anger about a black president have driven any rational thoughts and arguments out of their minds. They no longer even have the need to voice half rational arguments. Just take America back and we need a Real American as president. Scary shit.
I want to thank DU since stalking here over the past 4 years really helped me to re-evaluate my perspective.
I long for the day that my part of the country returns to the Democratic Party.
Since you've been here for four years it seems funny to say welcome to DU but welcome and I'm glad you're out of lurking mode.
