Club for Growth ad attacks Donald Trump's conservatism and character
Blasting News ^ | February 12, 2016 | Mark R. Whittington

As the battle for the Republican nomination for president shifts to South Carolina, all wings of the GOP, establishment and tea party conservative, are wrestling with the existential problem of how to stop Donald Trump. Trump, who won a convincing victory in New Hampshire, threatens to run the table by racking up enough wins to quickly amass enough delegates to lock down the nomination. The Club for Growth, an economic conservative group, has launched one of the first shots with an ad that attacks Trump’s conservatism and his character.

I'm voting Cruz March 1 in Texas Primary.

I'll vote Trump in Nov. should he close the deal.

Though polls are big in favor of Trump;

If Cruz pulls off the upset, would you vote Cruz in Nov?

Remember, these are the folks who ask Donald Trump for a $1 million contribution, IN WRITING (you can’t make this stuff up!), and then started attacking him after he said NO! The establishment is everywhere,and they are very, very scared by Donald Trump.

Yes I would. Even though I’m stunned by the status quo unprincipled stuff he’s done.

Hey, numb butt, BS is BS. Don't read you crap. Wasting time.

If you don't read it, you know-nothing jackass, how the F do you know if it's BS or not? As if you would be smart enough to know or find out anyway.

"Logical me". You are anything BUT logical. You're an illogical hopeless moron. No wonder you support a jerk like Trump.

Club for Growth is full of Cruz’s pals. They gave him 1.5 million for his Senate race and spent over 5 million on him to win the Senate seat. Imagine what they are paying now.

Cruz talks out of both sides of his ass. We can did up his college pals and show what a punk he is.

From your article:

“Senate Democrats blocked Paul’s legislation ... in a 53-44 vote.”

So Cruz’s vote wouldn’t have made a lick of difference, because Paul’s bill was already doomed to failure.

Looks like we have a choice of two strategies that "We The People" have inadvertantly or otherwise trained *ALL* political parties to limit themselves to:

#1 - Drama-Queen theatrics #2 - Telling you what they think you want to hear.

Cruz has #1 nailed, even if his rhetoric aligns with his history.

Trump has #2 nailed by... well... It will fall on deaf ears, but anyway:

You just revealed for all to see how utterly stupid you are. You LUMPed what I said and what that illogical idiot “Logical Me” said together as if it was all from the same person. Again, it’s no wonder stupid people like you and these others are supporting a potentially dangerous, phony, spoiled brat, cry baby, chump, like trump for president.
