TEA Party Set to Pour 10+ Years' Pent-Up Frustration Into Pulverizing Jeb Bush, Nominating Cruz

Jeb Bush would never get my vote. He wouldn't get my vote even if he were a pretend conservative. That's because he let Teri Shiavo die.

On a thread a few weeks ago, BushBots tried to claim that he couldn't prevent it; he really, really wanted to. First of all, I don't believe that spin. Secondly, if he couldn't stop one woman from being murdered by her ex-husband, how the heck would he ever stop ISIS...cut off their water supply? (sarcasm)

If the Republican RINO backstabbers give us yet another despicable candidate, why should we vote for that person? If we can't get someone strong and intelligent and a constitutional conservative, the best thing would be for the DC government to fall apart. Might as well let a dem be in DC then, so we can have an opposition that protects states rights.

C’mon RR. “10+ Years of Frustration”?

I think not. Electoral victories in the “off” years will translate. The use of such terms relegate the TEA Party to the “also-ran” category. I disagree.

Constitution, Uber Alles!

The possibility that he might win the election is just as much a reason to not let him get the nomination as the likelihood that any Democrat would beat him in the election.

Right. And Reagan couldn't win either.

“Watch for the “Ted Cruz is crazy” meme to be promulgated with ever more intensity.”

I already see him called a “bomb thrower.”

The Tea Party is on the decline as they got greedy in a number of local chapters. Cruz was not even born in this country. Walker is much better.

This current stalemate over the House bill funding DHS is a great opportunity for either or both Cruz and Rubio to show their leadership, thus enhancing their chances at the nomination.

Cruz is a liability being born in Canada.

Palin, Cruz, or LOSE. The Pubbies have one shot to get their minds right.

Walker would legalize and eventually give citizenship to the 20 million-plus illegals here currently and their numbers would swell to over 60 million by chain migration. We’re talking majority Leftist, ill-educated, affirmative action-favored, welfare-taking Latinos here by benefit of illegal means.

That position by Walker alone would mean the end to any hope of any conservatism or maintaining our Constitutional republic at all.

You’ve been taken in and fooled by the GOPe hype.

It takes a Reagan to win. I didn’t think he could do it until he said, “there you go again,” there on the screen in front of me. Then I knew he had it in the bag. A Republican candidate has to actually be a radical political and philosophical alternative to the Democrats and have a sense of humor to win the election. He also has to have the tenacity and the drive to win. Bush has none of that. He probably will win the nomination- I expect him to for several reasons relating to how the system works- but he will not win the election. He craves the nomination for the recognition of his innate worth that it seems to afford but, as with any gope, doesn’t really want to be President. I don’t think he will actively throw the election as Romney and McCain did, but he won’t try terribly hard.

No,we’re pretty much settled on Cruz.
We simply will not support any candidate that is unwilling to uphold the rule of law.
Fraudulently Documented Foreigners deserve no protection from the laws they have broken.
All the rest have indicated they support amnesty, they just don’t want to call it that.

if he couldn’t stop one woman from being murdered by her ex-husband, how the heck would he ever stop ISIS...cut off their water supply? (sarcasm)


Maybe he’d ask them politely to stop./s

If you want to keep importing workers for the jobs that can’t be exported.

Jobs weren’t falling out of trees when Reagan was president. In fact, the economy and job growth sucked during his first term and started to take off in his second term. Remember, Carter and Ford had really screwed things up bad. The best results from Reagan came during Bush’s four years and Clinton’s 8 years. Reagan deserves the credit for those two’s successes.
