Paul

^^ Unlike others, I don't change who I support based on status of the polls.

Unlike Rand Paul too, right?

tu quoque

Fair enough. However, when there are two candidates that I have essentially equal preference for (since Rand refuses to discuss anything that made his father remotely interesting), I dislike the implication that I am a weather vane for picking the one that actually has a plausible route to the nomination.

curious, you are a democrat...yet you support ted cruz??

I assume he mainly has a red avatar because of his opposition to neoconservative foreign policy and probably some other social issues, but I agree, a Ted Cruz-supporting Democrat seems a tad strange.

Huh. interesting. I would think he'd support Paul, at the very least. Cruz is arguably the third most neoconservative candidate (after Rubio and Bush...not counting Graham as he has no chance)

Cruz could just be pandering though.  There is speculation that he is more libertarian than he gives off.
