For the first time in my life, I'm considering not voting for the Republican presidential nominee (if it turns out to be Trump). |

I told a lot of people in 2008 and 2012 that doing so would be a terrible idea... I still think that was true in 2008 and 2012. But in 2016, I am in the same boat. I cannot pull the lever for Trump. |

and that's the worst of it, it almost seems like those that are pushing him are trying to sabotage the party to assure Hillary is elected. Many by their own mouths admit that they basically hate the party so much that they are willing to sink it no matter the cost. Yet these people claim to decry the last 8 years of Obama? I'm amazed. As much as I like Cruz over Rubio I'd be OK if he dropped out just to solidify the anti-Trump vote and end this game before it's too late. |

We just need a handful of super delegates that would overturn the popular vote of the people like the democrats have. Everything else is corrupt without moral's why not make an addendum to the party. |

No, I'll pass, but I think they should also end the "open voting" in some states that allow Democrats to vote for unelectable idiots and help assure them of a win in November. |

As long as Rubio doesn't get elected - I will consider it a successful year.
I will take the Bern over Rubio. _________________ Whether you like it or not, learn to love it, because its the best thing going today! |

Refusing to vote GOP is a vote FOR Sister Clinton.  |

There will be no difference in the two. The hope would be that she wins and that Rubio beats her in 4 years. Actually, the country ran pretty good with Clinton and Gingrich running things. Bill, at least, knew how to compromise unlike Obama. As for me, I will NOT vote for Trump or Clinton. Looks like Gary Johnson will get my vote if they are the 2 candidates. |

Well, the end result may be that Trump cannot beat her, but I will not vote for her. |

Foolishness. I bet if a RINO was the nominee he'd be telling GOP voters to hold their noses and vote for him, and to stay home is a vote for Hillary. Now he is begging for Hillary to be elected by encouraging GOP voters to back a 3rd party candidate if Trump is the nominee. Yet if Trump went 3rd party this same moron would be screaming about him handing the election to Hillary. Erickson did not like Ron Paul. Enough said. _________________ "It is doubtful if any Trinitarian Pentecostals have ever professed to believe in three gods, and Oneness Pentecostals should not claim that they do." - Daniel Segraves UPCI

If Trump wins the primary, I will vote Trump.
He is definitely not my first choice. But I will vote for him over Hillary of Bernie. _________________ Recorded Sermons @ www.pastorwiley.com

Well then you might as well go vote for Hillary because that is who we will get. |

yeah - everyone made a big deal about demanding Trump pledge support to the GOP nominee. Everyone raised their hand but Trump - but he eventually took the pledge.
I expect all the rest of those 17 contenders to heartily endorse Trump when he wins. _________________ Whether you like it or not, learn to love it, because its the best thing going today! |

You can't sit here and complain about Obama for the last 7 years and his socialist ideas and then turn around and vote for Clinton's socialism just because you dont think Trump is conservative enough for you. I want Cruz but will totally pull the lever for Trump as he will sweep in a Republican Congress with him. Congress will moderate him anyway. Vote for the most conservative candidate that can win, William F. Buckley. |

The "may as well vote for Hillary" argument doesn't cut it. Why would I vote for someone I don't want to be president? Whoever I vote for, it will be because they are my choice to be president. I won't have on my conscience the fact I voted for a heathen just because a worse heathen is on the ballot. |

Trump can't win. I was sure Romney couldn't win but voted for him in spite of his religion because right or wrong his morals seemed good. I am doubly sure that you will never convince over half of the population to vote for an extreme wack-job for president.
I saw a clip this morning about Trump being asked about public lands out west, typically he didn't know the conservative position on government ownership of land so, in the same breath, championed the 2nd amendment AND government owning 80% of the land in the west "because hunters need good public land to hunt on". Of course he went on to call Cruz a liar when he pointed this out, though, yet again, its on public record that he in fact said those things. |

What makes you think you won't get Obama 2.0 with Trump?
What has he DONE to prove he is any different in policy than Obama?
What he has DONE in the past and what he has said match! He has given to and been a proponent of planned parenthood and the Clinton foundation. He has spoken in favor of imminent domain and used it to his advantage. He has spoke for abortion and contributed to planned parenthood.
But here lately Trump has become this great conservative... |

Trump has also been in favor of gay marriage and says that gays will do better under him. (no pun intended I hope) |
