“Color me VERY skeptical ..”

Don’t be so used to losing, fellow patriots, that you just give up. Ted Cruz is Reagan-like, and can do the unexpected. Now it’s up to us to do our part. TED CRUZ CAN’T DO IT WITHOUT US. He is a leader, but we must help him.

In fact, besides calling your senator, and signing petitions, if you live close to your senators’ hometown office, give him/her a visit. I heard that is very powerful, and more so, if you bring a short letter to give the senator. It sure wouldn’t hurt to bring a friend, either.

I certainly gave the GOPe an ear full last week on a fundraising call. I hope I contributed to the ball sprouting. I want them to fight!

They did send a fund raising email this afternoon stating that they are standing with Ted Cruz. So I donated to them for the first time in over 5 years and responded to the email and to the donation acknowledgement that I was only donating because they were standing with Cruz. I told them they needed to get the Government out of healthcare and the other areas where it has insinuated itself, to the detriment of our economy and freedoms. Money talks, I hope they are listening.

“..now is on fire!”

Thanx for post #14.

Also, if we can’t get through to our senators (which is a good sign, imo), we can send them a Tweet!

When Juan and Linda show up on the floor to assist Cruz, then I might believe that the RNC is really serious.

I'm not giving up, no way.

But I'll only believe this "change of heart" from the GOPe SOBs when they publish it in public and back it up with action.

Sorry, they're not getting my support because of a faint-hearted "internal" memo. It's just quiet talk.

Let's see some on-the-record public comments, and some real action, then maybe we have something to talk about.

Meanwhile there's lots to do at the grassroots level, supporting individuals.

“.. Dontfundit.com please sign petiton. “

YES, SIGN the petition! Ted asks us to, and he knows what he’s doing.

Cruz and Lee keep asking us to call our senators, too. Maybe it’s easier to get through early in the morning.

I hope you’re wrong. We’re out of time, if we can’t call, tweet, email enough support to influence these clowns we’re going to be stuck with nationalized health care.

Oh, they'll cash your check, never fear.

As to whether they'll even read what you wrote..... I wouldn't count on it.

I’m sure that won’t be happening anytime soon.

Excuse my cynicism...but I don’t trust the GOPe one bit.

I'm thinking the same thing.

Glad to hear it!

Did you call your senators and sign the petition?

I hope I am wrong also.

Reince is so GOP establishment though; that I question his sincerity here. If we wants to jump on the bandwagon, then he should do it publicly. The GOP has forgotten that fighting Obamacare was in their platform.

Proof is in the pudding.

When I see Alexander going up for a few hours I’ll believe it.

“I just emailed every repub senator.”

Great, and maybe you’ll call tomorrow as well.

We have Schumer and Gillibrand, but my husband called, and I emailed them. Even though we know they are a waste of time, we feel we need to let them know how the masses feel, cuz if we don’t, it could embolden them even more.

We aren’t low-information voters. Reince can spout whatever he wants. I need 48 Senators to take 4 hours each on rotation if thats allowed.
