Should have dropped out before today. What an idiot. Hope he never gets elected again. Probably gave Trump the GOP nomination.

Didn't you support Rubio after Rand Paul dropped out?

Also, Rubio didn't help Trump to the nomination. After Rubio drops out, many of his supporters will go to the Donald, just like many of poor Jeb!'s did.

LOL. Of course not. After Rand I support Cruz.

He should dropped out on the last Super Tuesday (why are their 2?) but he seemed like an okay candidate.

From a liberal's perspective, Rubio was once the biggest threat to a Democrat winning the White House. But as soon as Christie nailed him for repeating himself four times in a row in a debate, things just went downhill for him. He once was the savior of the establishment, he was the only viable candidate left, but that all ended when he decided to go on full-out offense on Trump, resorting to attacks as personal as they get.

Nowadays I see Kasich as the most capable of beating Hillary or Bernie, even though he has almost no chance of winning the nomination.

Hmmm, yea this is almost won for the democrats in november. Will roughly depend on Bernie supporting Hillary if she wins the nomination.

lol. Hill is so weak a dead cow could beat her to the White House

Whether we like it or not, I believe that Trump is in a good position to win the election.(unfortunately)

Between Trump or Cruz the good question is who is worse??

Hillary's donors and special interests (Super PAC) have already started the mud slinging. It's quite entertaining even though pointless. But it's OK to call others Hitler if you are a good Democrat.

Trump, obviously. I really don't get the hate for Ted Cruz. Most of the people I've asked about it don't seem to have any other reason then, "He's a Christian so that must mean he's going to start a theocracy."

Cruz is a constitutionalist first and foremost, these portrayals of him as a religious fanatic are so off base.

As for Hillary Clinton, I don't get why people think she's a shoe-in. Republicans might be hated by far-leftists on the internet, but those same people make up far less of the general population. Clinton has a lot of baggage and will need to fight tooth and nail for the election even if Trump is her opponent.

If the Democrats wanted a candidate who could win easier they should have went with Sanders, but it might be too late for that now.

Trump wants to mostly keep military spending as is.

Cruz wants to grow it.

End of talk.

Though i really wouldn't want any candidate to win, i don't think i could vote if it was Sanders vs Trump. There's not really an obvious choice. It's more a matter of dealing with Sanderscare or not.

So military spending is all that matters? Seems a bit narrow-sighted.

Even if you were right what Trump currently wants is irrelevant, he's shown time and again that his positions change on a dime. Nobody truly knows what the man will do if he actually reaches office, and that's the scariest part.

At-least Cruz's intentions are relatively straight-forward.

Why I like Sanders the best:

He wants to warmonger less, lower spending on the military (and other than maybe Clinton, he's the only one who wants to do this), he'll ruin the economy so it will be less suited to future warmongering in the future. I care personally more about saving some lives, than about whether gay folk can vote or not.

He wants to warmonger less, lower spending on the military

This I approve of fully.

he'll ruin the economy

Fears of this is why I'm not fully behind him. However, I'm not really convinced either way. Is there any hard evidence that Sanders' plans will destroy the U.S economy?

You can say the same about all the candidates' policies.

lol. Hill is so weak a dead cow could beat her to the White House

When inevitably Sanders drops out (he has to win all the remaining states by a large margin if he wants any chance of beating Hill), Sanders voters will flop to Hillary, and not Trump/Cruz/Kasich because Sanders aligns with Hillary more than any other candidate, despite their debates.

Now, it's very likely that Trump will destroy Cruz and Kasich, sadly. It will come down to Hill-Trump election, and Hillary will smash Trump.

A new Klingon for president!

Cruz is a constitutionalist first and foremost, these portrayals of him as a religious fanatic are so off base.

On almost all social issues his answer is to leave it to the states to decide. He doesn't care if California allows gay marriage. What he does care about is the Federal Government forcing views on social issues down the throat of the states when the government has no constitutional right to do so.

Even if you were right what Trump currently wants is irrelevant, he's shown time and again that his positions change on a dime. Nobody truly knows what the man will do if he actually reaches office, and that's the scariest part.

+1. Trump pledges time and time again he's going to make the military great again by listening to the generals. He'll find that its quite difficult to clean up wasteful Pentagon spending when the corrupt US generals who are mostly speaking heads for the DoD and Military-Industrial Complex keep asking for money to go and build the next weapon or fight another war. If you [Жұқтыру] actually trust what Donald Trump is saying on military intervention, then he's succeeded in fooling you. That's his best quality remember. He's a con man and political opportunist.

You can say the same about all these candidates. You don't know what they're going to do. You think these candidates stick to their ideologies since they're principled? No, they stick to what is best for them and their sponsors, and also sometimes other things if they're low on public support/was a big point in their campaign and they'd look awful if they didn't do it.

Trump flip-flopping is not an argument against Trump, it's a counterargument against the argument that Trump is (decently) constant in his stances (which is rarely argued, anyway). Cruz, Kasich and whoever else can just be good at hiding what they really want to do. Being a small politician doesn't mean you'll be the same as a big politician.

I'm assuming each politician will tell the truth about what they do, which is an assumption and may not happen, but there are no guesses otherwise. And I'd pick Trump, who says he is not going to grow the military forces out, over Cruz, who says he will.
