"...he wanted to strike a "careful balance" on the issue..."

Isn't that almost word-for-word what he said about immigration and amnesty just recently?

With due respect, bad analogy.

With Senator Ted Cruz, all we have to do is look at what he says.

With Gov. Scott Walker, can look at not only what he has said, but what he has done.

This past week will be the “high water mark” of his Walker’s campaign. As a neighboring state’s governor, he will need to win Iowa in a landslide. Very high expectations that will be difficult to achieve.

That’s an interesting picture and it says a lot.

McCain, Shumer and linda standing and applauding for, principled Ted Cruz neither standing nor applauding.

Sometimes you have to sit down and be quiet to make a very strong point.

Go Ted Cruz!

Ethanol should be eliminated!

It's junk for fuel and totally inefficient!

It is time to stop making ethanol from corn. Let’s see which candidate is willing to take on that corruption.

Pray America is waking

raising corn for ethanol is a waste. Corn should be food for humans, cattle and other livestock.

Mr. Walker, do us all a favor and just stay out of the Presidential running; I already had qualms about you, and now that I’ve heard about your thinking ethanol is good eating for vehicles, not people...

Editorializing the headline.

Maybe you pro-aborts don’t appreciate it but Walker, Perry have shut down abortion clinics.

Let alone, Ted Cruz’s amnesty bill: http://www.nytimes.com/2013/09/13/us/cruz-tries-to-claim-the-middle-ground-on-immigration.html?pagewanted=all&_r=3&;

Iowa and their ethanol blackmail have way to much power on electing candidates. When will that ever change?

Kinda early for a primary brawl. I like both Cruz and Walker. Cruz stands strong on what he believes and has a strong faith, plus his father is a minister. I also like Walker who fought and won in Wisconsin against the most well funded and hateful people next to the homosexual nazis. He is a man of faith and His father was also a minister.

I know the American people don't want amnesty, but I also don't think they want to appear heartless and throw families out who have been here decades and paid taxes and have committed no crimes. Liberals have managed to take God's call to love others and turn it into give me your wallet and everything else I want. They shame publicly anyone who doesn't do it their way and call them child, women, black, homosexual..... haters. I'd like to see the constitution followed, but unfortunately most Americans don't know or care what the constitution says, including many people who call themselves conservatives. I sure hope I'm wrong, but I worry that Cruz's stand on immigration will cause him to lose the primary and we will end up with Bush or Christie or Huckabee.

I'm going to have my favorite and two backups. I'd love to see Ben Carson or Sarah as president but I don't think either can win so I eliminated them. I think a Cruz/Walker or Walker/Cruz ticket could win. I just don't want to see a rino or democrat win.

The article states, then re-states, then re-states another 3-5 times, that Walker HAS NO POSITION on ethanol. But you are arguing that he is all for ethanol. Weird.

I’m all for Ted Cruz, but I don’t see the point in attacking the second best (likely) guy by manufacturing a smear on a position that he hasn’t taken.

Go after Bush. Really.

Even Mitt Romney didn’t pander on ethanol

It seems Iowans want their goodies like everyone else. Oppose their crony capitalist intentions of ethanol at the GOP peril it seems.
