i still hope that you are exceptions to the general rule - however we shall see prety soon whether he really represents teh majority of conservatives.

he represents Iowa. he's shown us that. he does not even represent his home state, his election was a joke, a ridiculous margin. he is a radical even for texas.
New Hampshire is my hoe state, and it used to be fiercely republican/libertarian - and you see how they dealt with Cruz.

Yes, Rand Paul would suit me, too.

but not Cruz. not because i dislike him - though i do - but because he - i repeat - does not represent conservtive americans, but represents lunatic tea party and evangelical fringe. if you are one of them, well, too bad.
