**** Elections thread *****

I'll bet on the field. Even in this election, Cruz was an unattractive candidate for the republican party. He's made a career of rubbing people the wrong way. I don't see the republican party putting money behind him in a primary.

Also, Republicans won this time because they captured more of the middle, Cruz moves them back toward the right. The old GOP is gone. Or if it comes back, it will die a slow, painful, humiliating death.

I don't disagree.

Cruz is just the guy I agree with on just about everything whom I think can win.

Of those I think will run, Cruz is the only one I like. Well, and Rand Paul but I don't think he can win the general.

My bet is on either

A) Someone who's currently padding their resume in the Trump administration. Jeff Sessions, Rick Perry, someone like that
B) Someone with some celebrity who appeals to the middle just enough to win. Someone like Dean Cain. But also, not Dean Cain.
