Take a Memo:

Trump - as much as I'm enjoying watching Trump drive the establishment and press insane he hasn't closed the deal with me for my vote. For all Trump brings to the table I'm not sure he's prepared for just how corrupt and incompetent Washington is. Trump needs smart, competent people to be successful as a chief executive but he will have to rely on corrupt incompetent bozos in Washington to get anything done.
I have a bit of a different take on Trump. This man has spent most of his life dealing with corrupt politicians and real estate people in NY. He's a Big Boy, he knows how to handle crooked people. And you don't think he would surround himself with the very BEST people, regardless of politics? It's kind of what he is best known for, isn't it? I think these attributes are unique for Trump, not a weakness. He would literally put together an all-star administration who wouldn't be obliged to any special interest or tied to any donor money... all 100% committed to Trump.
Cruz
- he doesn't really have a weak area the man is brilliant. His education and employment history is stellar. Resume wise he blows everyone else out of the water on both sides of the isle. But he needs to stop trying to tell personal stories because he really sucks at it. Stick to the issues or get some coaching on story telling.
He's my guy til the end. I've said that since he filibustered over Obamacare. I actually don't mind his stories but I wish his sense of humor would come out more.. he is really a funny guy when he wants to be. I know this is a serious campaign with serious matters being debated, but I think he should maybe relax more and show his casual side. But no real complaints, I hope he is the nominee and if not, I hope he is the VP pick because he would be excellent there as well.
Paul
- he would make a great president except that the establishment is able to slap him silly and he just stands there and takes the beating. Cruz and Trump give as good as they get and frequently mop the floor with their opponents, Paul just doesn't. He would be a great pic for VP and maybe with 4-8 years VP experience he would be ready for the big chair.
I'll just be honest here... Paul scares me a little. Maybe it's the Paul DNA.... He just seems to say things that make me cringe sometimes. I agree with him 90% of the time but 10% of the time I wonder if he's off his rocker. Still.. I might would vote for him if it came down to him versus Hillary... but it's not going to happen. He'll never get close to the nomination.
