Bull$#!+.

There are no sour grapes. There is only righteous anger.

We had a tested conservative candidate who could have beat the hell out of her in a debate and you morons couldn’t see what was right in front of your face.

Trump left so damn much on the table tonight. Saudi Arabia, Benghazi, DNC, corruption, Clinton Foundation, disaffected Bernie supporters, TPP, etc....

That was the worst debate performance I have ever seen.

He was debating a person everyone identifies as a criminal and ended up making her look like a saint.

Not quite.

Is Cruz a better debater? Of course, I don’t think that is even a serious question.

But you are overlooking something critical: this is an outsider vs. the ultimate insider - Cruz could never be the outsider, and had other vulnerabilities...not the least of which is that he comes off as both arrogant and smarmy. Trump has run many businesses and knows how to create jobs - whereas, Cruz has about the same experience as Clinton in this regard.

I will tell you that I donated to his campaign when he declared last March, and I have voted for him for Senate (and likely will again). However, Trump won me over and Cruz lost me. It was too early for him.

More to the point, the primaries are OVER. We are now facing a binary choice - Trump or Clinton. Playing the “woulda, shoulda, coulda” game is not merely pointless, it detracts from what should be our primary goal, defeating Clinton.
