Almost any of them would have been more tolerable than Trump. If I could've named the nominee, I would've went with Cruz. I think a politician that is willing to go into Iowa and tell them he wants to kill the RFS (and still won the state no less) is one who might actually put principle over expediency. He did, however, lose a little bit of my respect when he knuckled under and endorsed Trump.
Aside from him, I think I could have voted for Rubio, Walker, (probably) Fiorina, Paul, Jindal or even Perry.
In the end, I wrote in Evan McMullin. Apparently he was formally registered as a write-in (that's a thing?) in my state, meaning that his vote totals would be counted. Apparently other write-ins aren't even tallied unless write-ins make up a significant portion of the vote....
