I'm sorry, with so many names in SOOPOO's post I should have clarified; I was referring to Paul Ryan. "War is the remedy that our enemies have chosen..let us give them all they want." William T. Sherman |

To what degree is the base the base? I tend to think you give the Evangelical idiots more credit than they deserve for controlling the party. For one thing, they have lost on every single social position for which they have ever advocated...most of it is settled law or will become settled law...so nothing that the far reaches of the party advocates for on the social side of things will ever happen, imo. Furthermore, I think you give Trump too much credit for having an ironclad grasp on the party. I could be quite wrong, but I don't know how much Moderate Republicans like him. I think Paul Ryan throwing his hat in (and that's even assuming Trump runs) makes it a two man race really quickly. I would give the advantages all to Ryan for moderate appeal, being good-looking, well-spoken, intelligent, probably not a racist and being much younger than Trump. If all of that isn't enough, we've already seen what a Trump Presidency looks like. I wouldn't want to be asked to draw a Primary map, but I'd expect Paul to do especially well in the Midwest and states in which the Republicans tend to be more Moderate. I think Trump would steamroll him in The South. "War is the remedy that our enemies have chosen..let us give them all they want." William T. Sherman |

I will be there for the vote, my guess is that everybody cares more than I do so my vote is officially for sale. Best offer accepted. At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a detrrent. |

Not being silly…. We may have discussed this before…. But isn’t it illegal to ‘sell your vote’? |

rxwine Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 189 Posts: 18762 | Assuming DeSantis ends up as a presidential candidate, I don't want to hear any gripes that it's the Democrats favoring divisive polarized candidates and issues that are dividing the country. He's one of worst in that area. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |
