I suppose I would go with Romney again out of your list, but I am open to Rand Paul, Marco Rubio, Ted Cruz and Ben Carson.
If I might ask, what exactly is the conservative beef with Warren (at least more specific than she's a 'leftist', 'commie', yada-yada)?
She helped establish the U.S. Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, has consistently fought for the shrinking middle class who rightfully believe "the system is rigged", while suggesting that the rich should pay more taxes (egads!), and she's hammered banks and so-called 'regulators' when no one else would. Also horror of horrors, she pushed for students to be able to take out government education loans at the same rate that banks like Goldmann Sachs enjoy! But perhaps her biggest 'sin' was publicly outing the recent Wall Street budget giveaway that virtually guts Dodd-Frank (you know, the banking limits specifically designed to prevent another Great Recession)?! So what's not to like (other than she's smart, female and a very persuasive Lib-rul)?!

You explained it with the last word of your post. She's a liberal, or as you misspelled it, 'Lib-rul.'
Ted Cruz is smart (deemed by a Harvard law prof as one of his brightest students ever), is a male, and has consistently fought for shrinking liberty. Would I expect you to support him? No, he's a conservative. It's as simple as that.
