It's happening...


Because Trump is more of a moderate.


People wondered how he would turn the corner, Cruz is his banked turn. Every time Cruz attacks Trump for not being conservative enough it boosts his potential in the general.

Trump set this game up pretty perfectly for someone who still a year later knows nothing about policy to be moderate about.


If Trump wins the nomination, and if it really is true that you have to be a moderate Republican to win, then I see this as a win-win.


Or if not, you can come back and talk about "if only we nominated a conservative", really is a win-win. One thing's for sure, all that "we need a governor" crap fell on deaf ears.

Problem for Trump is video tape, particularly against Bernie who doesn't have that weakness.


I was just accepting the premise. The "we need a governor" was an establishment line to prop up Jeb! and Christie. I think that's malarkey.

Edit: and Walker.

What about Walker, was it not to prop him up, wasn't he one of the conservative favorites going in? *Ninja edit

But like I said pesky video tape and a hip generation means constant mashups of Trump saying polar opposite things over and over, maybe throw in some Republicans saying the same thing.

Kasich denying that there was a popular uprising in Libya... These guys just have no interest in dealing with reality. The so-called "moderates" included.

Moderate is relative. By European standards, Republicans are reactionaries, not just conservatives.
History will sooner or later sweep the European Union away without mercy.

Yeah, that was used for all the favored governors. It was always dumb.

The nightmare is real. The Republican's represent 1/3 of our country and this is what they have to offer. WWE without the finishing moves.

We've come a long way from Donald and Cruz playing footsies together in the early debates.
