Really even if the establishment gets their hope and nominates someone like Bush or Christie for president. That guy is going to be a shell of his former self and reduced to pandering like Mitt and McCain before him did to the worst elements of the party. We’ll see yet another nod to the nutcases in the VP pick. I don’t see Cruz getting nominated but I can easily see him being picked for VP as a nod to that element of the base that begged for Palin and Ryan. And then when that ticket fails, Cruz will become a RINO just like Ryan has.

Christie’s right out, that albatross around his neck labeled “Port Authority” is gonna sink him. And I’m not sure Jeb’s even decided if he really wants to run, despite the establishment looking to him now as their only hope. It could very well be Cruz winning the nomination, which wouldn’t stop him from being dubbed a “RINO” upon getting his ass shellacked in the general election.
