Ryan has come along way since his run as VP. At this point, he's the least scary of Republicans but still I wouldn't trust him further than I could throw Trump.

Not sure if serious ...

kane · 04-09-2016, 05:08 PM

I understand that the republican establishment hates Trump an they aren't fans of Cruz either, but they have to be smart enough to realize giving the nomination to someone who didn't even run would likely guarantee Hillary the win (or Bernie if he pulls off a miracle).

They sure as fuck don't want Ted Cruz to bet he nominee.

The strategy is to help Ted Cruz take as many delegates away from Trump so it'll be an open convention. Once that happens, sneak Paul Ryan in. They can change the rules to nominate anyone they want, and they sure as fuck don't want Donald Trump or Ted Cruz. In the long list of sneaky, underhanded shit Republicans have done, this wouldn't even rank as slightly nefarious.

I can see why they would do it, as they watch Donald Trump unravel their façade of seeming to care about the poor or non-white voters -- which has already been failing miserably because they can't even fake compassion or empathy.

The problem with doing that is that it will likely cause Trump to run as an independent. if he does that it pretty much guarantees Hillary the win.

The only way they would do this is if they could get Trump to guarantee not to run as a third party independent.

I don't know about that....

I think Hillary is tough, and if she was up against Trump, I think she would win.

If Bernie faced-off against Trump, I am not convinced Bernie would win. He's nicer, smarter, cooler, better, but Trump is louder.

If Hillary or Bernie had to face-off against Cruz, I think it would be a close race. Cruz talks like a nut job, but I think deep down he's cool and calculating. He's also a great speaker, despite the fact that he speaks mostly garbage.

Paul Ryan on the other hand is probably the smartest of the entire bunch on the republican side. I think that Ryan is the GOP's best hope of winning the whitehouse, or at the very least, saving the republican party.

Ryan may well be a better candidate than Cruz or Trump. The problem is if they screw Trump and Cruz and make him the nomination Trump will likely run as a third party candidate. That will cause a split in the republican vote and likely make it pretty easy for the democrat. If they could somehow keep Trump from running as a third party candidate it will help them to some degree, but it seems like about 35% of registered republicans are die hard Trump supporters. Who knows how they will react if he gets screwed out of the nomination. Without their support no republican candidate can win.

dyna mo · 04-09-2016, 08:47 PM

Doubtful.

Why would the GOP do that? Everything they've done up to now has been so wrong they've got themselves stuck with Trump and Cruz. There's nothing to think that they would do something that actually landed them a somewhat reasonable candidate to represent them. I predict further chaos, not less.

ITraffic · 04-09-2016, 08:52 PM

the rnc has stated they would prefer to write off this election rather than let trump win.

ilnjscb · 04-09-2016, 09:04 PM

You don't know republicans. They don't just call shit cake and eat it with glee. Ryan did not get a single vote. The party can't just steal the nomination and expect to win. Kasich, Cruz, and Trump would all go apeshit, and with good reason. Half the party would revolt. The nominee will be one of the three.

Not only that, but Cruz voters don't align very well with Ryan, who is a RINO. So its a very dangerous game the RNC will play if they do that route.

robfantasy · 04-09-2016, 09:38 PM

when will you realize its a 1 party system... its the establishment (dems/repubs) vs the outsider.

Relentless · 04-09-2016, 10:26 PM

Ryan has more power now than he would have as President. He is the fail safe controlling the spending. Whether Trump, Cruz, Bernie or Hillary win, the gop establishment is keeping Ryan where he is to constrain them.

I agree with this mostly, except that I think Kasich is also out. They have lost the general already, they are now thinking damage control. If you run Trump you lose and honor the democratic process, if you run Cruz you lose and maintain your conservative and Christian mantras. Tee up 2020.

Their goal is to have a candidate next time who isn't a complete joke to the country or the world. Perhaps they should do a Presidential Apprentice???

this is probably the safest bet.

Even if they knew the actions needed to fix this Trump/Cruz problem, they couldn't execute it properly -- because they're not capable of it. This is the bed they've made (with the help of conservative media).

To fix their overall party conundrum and make themselves more palatable to the changing demographics they'll need years (maybe a generation) of gradual change that is actually sincere. Trying to create the illusion of giving a shit during a four year period will not work. They actually seem worse now than when they had their "autopsy" after the 2012 election.

Don't be so sure the DNC is busy fucking over Bernie as well. Despite him winning Wyoming yesterday hilly gets half the delegates and all the super delegates..

Despite loosing Hillary walks away with more delegates than Sanders. I imagine this election will have the lowest turn outs of any election in recent history because it's obvious both parties are ignoring the actual voters and it will result in many people not bothering to vote.

slapass · 04-10-2016, 09:55 AM

Come on, we all knew the Republicans couldn't win this time around. They mailed it in.

The good news is this will force them to really look at their platform. Guns and abortion are pretty narrow and leaves a lot of folks out of it. Add in the denier element and any reasonable person has a hard time voting for their candidates. it is time they revamped it a bit.

You certainly (as usual) have NO idea about what people in this country want.

Yes, the media (who work for the RNC and the DNC) are pushing Ryan to low-information people like you.

REALITY: He didn't even carry his home state for Romney in 2012.

He BARELY won re-election to the House in his latest run.

NOBODY is going to vote for Ryan no matter how hard the media tries to push that.

Exactly. It's disgusting. I've all but lost faith in the process. In TX my vote won't matter anyway. If/when Bernie gets screwed out of the nomination I'm writing my cat in. He would do a better job than anyone else.

Exactly. Trump or Cruz didn't just appear magically. And Bernie's popularity didn't just happen either.

Not one of those people are what we have been spoonfed into believing is supposed to be President. Not one.

But people are sick and tired of electing the chosen candidates and then watching them do none of the things they were elected to do.

If I were a Republican...I would leave that party immediately. Think about it: they are opposed to abortion, they also want a smaller govt. with less spending.
Bush was in office for all those years with a fully controlled Republican House and Senate.
So why isn't abortion illegal? Why did Bush spend MORE money and make govt. BIGGER?
Because he was NEVER going to do what the voters elected him to do.

If I were a Democrat...I would leave that party too. Obama has been President for almost 8 years now. Why aren't taxes a lot higher? Why isn't the govt. a LOT bigger? Yeah, I know he has a Republican legislature to deal with...but the first two years he had FULL control with a super majority in the House and Senate. And all we got was ObamaCare?
He never had any intention on doing what the voters elected him to do.

People want someone who isn't owned by special interests and will just do what they say they are going to do. Or at least try to do it. And if Congress won't work with them...guess what? They are gonna get voted out too.

We KNOW what Trump wants to do. We KNOW what Bernie wants to do.

Jeb? He would have said anything to get elected. And then obey all the people that donated those hundreds of millions of dollars to him.
Hillary? Same exact thing.

People are tired of it.

Obama said he would do Obamacare and he did. He made lots of measures to get us out of the recession, food stamps expanded, cash for clunkers, first time home buyers. He got us out of the wars. So far, he has been ok as far as what he said he would do. He did not cure all of our ills.

Bernie seems pretty straight up. Nuts but he seems to have a plan.

Trump has said he wants to rebuild the gutted military but wants to make it smaller. He wants troops on the ground and wipe out Isis but wants to stay out of the middle east. I tend to like his flexibility as that is what a good business person needs. If it is not working then go the other way and try that. It is less good for telling me what he is for before an election. He did lose me when he was a birther and re enforced that with the ban Muslim thing. He tends to speak first first and evaluate second.

The party can't just steal the nomination and expect to win. Kasich, Cruz, and Trump would all go apeshit, and with good reason. Half the party would revolt. The nominee will be one of the three.

Whether Trump, Cruz, Bernie or Hillary win, the gop establishment is keeping Ryan where he is to constrain them. __________________ Website Secure \| Engine Food ICQ# 266-942-896

The good news is this will force them to really look at their platform. Guns and abortion are pretty narrow and leaves a lot of folks out of it. Add in the denier element and any reasonable person has a hard time voting for their candidates. it is time they revamped it a bit.
