CRUZ or LOSE!

The intro to the Green Hornet was:
With his faithful valet Kato, Britt Reid, daring young publisher, matches wits with the Underworld, risking his life so that criminals and racketeers within the law may feel its weight by the sting of the Green Hornet!
Seems the color green was a popular superhero hue, back in the late thirties...the Lantern and the Arrow were also in the mix...
Now it appears to be the color of envirowimps...
Very doubtful. Ted slipped a bit but what’s really going to
hinder his rebound is Trump.
Doubt it...when push comes to shove, anyone with voting smarts can see Cruz is superior as presidential timber...
Do I think Cruz will be the nominee? Nope. Jeb Bush will be nominated, and will be defeated by Hillary Clinton...Cruz will return to the Senate, but he must avoid becoming too respected as a Senator, lest he become another Bob Dole...
He’ll be back in 2020...Jeb won’t...
Ted Cruz Ping! None of Cruz’s detractors is fit to shine his shoes.
“ridiculed Cruz’s plan as politically unachievable”
Well then, since it is so “hard” to change the consititution in the appropriate manner, let’s just give that responsibility to 9 (or 5, or 1 depending on the view) rulers that wear black robes!
Isn't that as much an oxymoron as "same sex marriage."
He may once have been a "Conservative" Attorney; but undermining the foundational pillar of any Conservative society--that is the sanctification of the progression of generations in that society--is the total opposite of Conservatism.
In this instance, certainly, you are right. Those who cannot debate Cruz on the merits of issues, but choose to loudly denounce & insult him for speaking truth to bullies, deserve the contempt of all who respect truth.
Campaigns are just getting started. Right now the ground games and the money are more important than the polls that care about current name recognition. Trump the mouth will fizzle out election time and serious people will still be in the race. Walker. Cruz. Jeb (I'm not voting for him). Rand Paul. Maybe one or two others.
It's the same thing the left (worse at this) had with Obama. Big mouths trump actual actions.
My error thanks for the correction. As a young boy I listened to all the radio mystery programs I could find on my old radio 1930-1940 vintage as I recall.
“The problem with Trump shows the problem with American society. People care more about talk than action. They think running one’s mouth means they are standing up for something and being courageous when in reality, running one’s mouth isn’t doing jackbleep.”
Well that makes Trump no different than any other politician.
If they were going to take action on immigration why did they wait til we were at critical mass. Even now we wouldn’t be having a national conversation about it had Trump not got it started.
Unlike The Shadow, which always used the "Who knows what even lurks in the hearts of men...?" [as far as I know] the Green Hornet's intro went through a bunch of revisions.
The one I actually learned first was a somewhat later one [NPR did not have all of the Green Hornet episodes, and I heard later ones on radio collection CD's while driving with my own children on summer vacations.] It was discontinued in 1940 because J. Edgar Hoover complained about it, but I think it was the most striking of all the Green Hornet introductions:
"He hunts the biggest of all game! Public enemies that even the G-men cannot reach!"
“Conservative attorney and prominent gay rights activist”
I didn’t know sodomy and homosexual marriage were part of the Conservative agenda, I thought it was part of the liberal socialist agenda, once you get past what you do in the privacy of your home and bedroom with a consenting adult is your business.
Trump has more money than anyone. Carly Fiorina is worth $500M, too. But that's not helping her get to relevance.
When do you think the first candidate who has announced with drop out? In 2011 we had candidates quitting in August! Pawlenty, who hired great advisors and was taking the race seriously realized that his poor finish in the Iowa straw poll was indicative of a general failure to catch fire, and quit on Aug 11.
I don't think any of them are going to quit until Iowa, and maybe not until after New Hampshire. And maybe not too many then as, for instance, Cruz finishing 4th in both he's still going to stay in for South Carolina. If Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina and Florida all have different winners and second place finishers you could have six or more candidates who continue on to Super Tuesday.
I think we could get to a brokered convention.
This years is really different, it's interesting and fun to watch.
Reduced to school yard taunts, eh? Over at the adult table we've had an interesting conversation. Too bad you're not up for it.
Look,my tennis shoes are on the wrong feet
What Olsen is saying is that the Supreme Court has no check or balance .. and when it rules .. we’re done!
WRONG .. the legislature can stop the wrong decision by passing legislation with a 2/3 vote which cancels the Supreme Court’s decision. Don’t people know this ..??
Just like when the President uses his VETO, the legislature can make that veto null and void by simply overriding the veto with a 2/3 vote.
This is what puts a limit on the power of each of the three branches of govt.
Sadly, there were not enough votes in Congress to stop the gay marriage fiasco.
