A very good friend of mine, who is a die-hard Republican told me today after New York: “Let’s just get this over and nominate Trump, so I can once-for-all give up on the Republican Party.” I responded that we shouldn't give up hope just yet. If we can get through next week, Cruz will have a great May heading into the convention. There is at least an even chance that Trump will be short of 1237 on the first ballot. And watch this really historic and inspiring speech by Ted Cruz:

This compares to Trump’s speeches, which go something like this:
“I. love New York. New Jersey. My casinos. I did great. Fantastic deal. I am. Super rich. But I HATE those women. Who are. Too ugly. To be President. Those liars too. Hate them. Hate them. I’m Presbyterian. Very very special people. But I will not repent. I love water boarding. Make America. Great again!"
Because if he tried to talk about all that you mention he would step on his _ick and make so many mistakes he would look like a clown
Brilliant! /s
Why do people try to become zot bait?
lol
Anger stage.
You are not allowed to point out Trump’s short comings on Free Republic. You will be called a Cruzlim and worse. Free Republic Trump supporters sound just like Trump and they don’t even realize it.
Well, I’m giving up on the goofy Off Grid Blog.
Why do I get the impression you filled up an anti-Trump post, just to post something anti-Trump.
“But why doesn’t Trump ever talk about the Constitution, or big government, or free markets, or the Tenth Amendment, or the federal debt,”
Are you kidding?? Trump talks about those all the time!!
Bye, Bye, Teddy.
Time to get out of your Cruz cave and start paying attention to what Trump actually says, not what is ‘reported’ he says.
“But why doesn’t Trump ever talk about the Constitution, or big government, or free markets, or the Tenth Amendment, or the federal debt, or natural marriage?”
Those things aren’t important to him. His supporters are projecting their own views onto him.
Ask Paul Ryan about the federal debt...he’s pretty much taken ownership of it after December.
35% of country is Big C Conservative.
65% of the country is not.
This is not the 1980’s where Reagan Democrats were the Ram Rod of an election victory. For those that were there, The Powers That Be HATED RWR. The Romney and Bush Gangs were part of that hate.
The Donald will get big chunks of that 65%. The Donald puts NY, NJ, CT, PA, FL, MI, AND CA solidly in the “Very Possible” category. Our Man Ted, alone, doesn’t have that power.
Trump/Cruz would win 45+ states
You either WORK to make America great or you are a leech and a load upon the working class.

“But why doesn’t Trump ever talk”
He’s aligned 80% with Ted Cruz’s positions. And maybe you missed the 1,000 times Trump has warned about the $19 trillion dollar debt. And if you’re asking about financials, better ask Ted about his. No, he did not release his full tax returns.
And as a practical matter, if you’re trying to win a national election, it might not be a great idea to call for the abolishment of 5 Federal departments and 25 agencies, if you expect to win the swing state of Virginia.
If I were a federal worker in VA (or any other state for that matter), I would have no choice, for the security of my family, to vote against Cruz.
I cant get to what Trump talks about. I cant get past nasty, liar, cheater, and all that other garbage like that that he says to get to what he is actually going to do.
I mean yeh he says he is going to build a wall, somehow bring jobs back and stop china from ripping us off. But I dont know how. Just cant stomach him attacking everyone out there.
