I would prefer he is not.
Who is your preference these days, Yankee?
Well it is coming down to a process of elimination.
Absolute No's:
Cruz - Cannot Win
Rubio - Unfit, all over the map on immigration and tool for the bush foreign policy
Christie - Too Corrupt and Statist
Bush - The last two were a disaster and we need to get away from Bush
Probably No at this Point:
Kasich - Kasich could have prevented Trump had he merely ran as the budget and border hawk he was in Congress. By putting all the establishment eggs in the cyclical amnesty bandwagon, the establishment resigned us to having Trump occur.
I probably won't be able to update my registration in time because of lack of transportation and real life stuff so I will probably miss out on actually voting. When I still held onto the possibility of doing so, I had prepared myself to vote for Rand Paul as a protest. I still could even though he dropped out.
Since December, I have found myself more and more rooting for Trump. This is clearly evident in my posting on AAD. I am not sure I want him to be the nominee, more or less to be President. I fear he will damage the GOP too much amongst high educated and wealthy swing voters in the absence of a recession crippling the Democrats, like Reagan had against Carter.
However, while everyone has been crapping themselves over Donald J. Trump, I have really found myself looking at who is opposing him and why. I find their moaning about Trump to ring hollow in the light of their destruction of this party, their deviations from conservatism when it benefits their corporate masters and their electability killing extremism. It is perfectly fine when they do it, but Trump is a monster who needs to be stopped. If someone buys that crap, I got a bridge to close for them. If a Trump nomination can free the party from their death grip, then more and more I am beginning to see the merits of that happening.
