Uilhlein committed on Wednesday evening, according to Drew Ryun, a super PAC official with Keep The Promise PAC.

"He is one of the top five courted GOP donors," Ryun told CNN. "For us to land him is a good shot in the arm for Ted, and it really sets the stage going into Iowa."(continued)

Actually he is one of the top five GOPe donors. Add this to CFG and GS and it looks like Cruz has the donor class firmly behind him. I wonder why?

Probably because he has convinced the Donor class that he means what he says and they believe he can actually win the general election, in spite of what the Trump Fan Boys are posting on FR.

Two words for you: hypocrite and projection. You might want to look them up, they are not something you should aspire to be.

Or it could mean that Cruz has agreed to be their sock-puppet. Sometimes things are just as they appear.

Actually, those are perfect adjectives for the regular Trump Fan-Boys here on FR. Kind of a reverse projection on your part.

Now, a word for you to look up, deflection.

Sure, because his record just drips with support for the GOP-E, right?

Well you said it, I didn't. But it is evidenced by Cruz's efforts to get TPA through Congress, his support for obumbers Iran deal and amnesty.

I'll be avidly supporting Cruz if he's the nominee. I'll be avidly supporting Trump if he's the nominee.

If Cruz does become the nominee, will you be staying home on election day to teach us a lesson?

Yea, like Trump's support for socialized government controlled Healtcare (Single-Payer Plan) or his Amnesty policy to let those "productive" illegal aliens to get Citizenship if they "step-back" across the border. Or how about Trump stating he is Pro-Life even though he still supports abortion in the cases of Rape, Incest, and Life of the mother, and even up to a certain part of the pregnancy no matter what the reason.

Oh, and I forgot Trump funding the Clinton's, Trump calling the GOP "mean-spirited" in 2012 because they wanted to get tough on immigration.

You see that is what you call a Campaign conservative (Trump), whereas, Cruz is the Consistent Constitutionally-based conservative.

One really doesn't appear to care about the constitution, while the other understands that fidelity to the constitution is a requirement for the POTUS position.

No need to lie.

Amnesty policy to let those "productive" illegal aliens to get Citizenship if they "step-back" across the border.

Yep, once they are out of the country they can get in line and come back only if it benefits America. I'm okay with that.

Of whom do you speak? Do you have a rat in your pocket, or do you presume to speak for everyone? And just for the record, I have voted in every election I was eligible to vote in since 1978. I'm not a "take my ball and go home" kinda guy. But I am not above writing in a name.
