Agreed we will see, but right now I just don’t see Cruz taking SC.
With that said I believe Cruz will out do his polling yet again. That ground-game is insane.
I still listen to Levin but he’s been an emotional wreck lately, and knowing that his ratings are slipping can’t help.
As far as Rush his show is still a must listen for me. It’s obvious he’s in for Cruz, but I also believe he has a soft spot for Rubio and even Trump... Despite what some may think.
If only.
I picked up on Rush tipping the scale for Cruz. This is so unusual for him. It is as if everyone is totally nuts in this election cycle.
Yes, and Mr. Ed could outthink Secretariat like Cruz can outthink Trump when it comes to the Constitution or national security or nominating a conservative judge that won’t dictate liberal values to us for the rest of our bloody lives.
Commonsense would tell you that a bad law can haunt a society for decades, far beyond the lifespan of a judge or lawmaker.
Ah, but a Democrat will give its soul for a little bit of bread and security.
It really is. He's never come this close to making an actual endorsement in a primary before. He's got to know that it's going to cost him listeners, which is why he's never done it before.
As a well known media personality, it just makes sense to hold your cards close to your vest until the nominee is chosen. Indicating, or even hinting at your personal choice during the primary, is just bad business, because you're going to drive away a portion of your listeners.
Perhaps Rush has just gotten to the point where the money and listener numbers just aren't all that important any more. He's got to know that this is going to hurt his show.
And the phrase you’re reaching for is “common sense is not so common”. There’s more elegance in that phrase. It’s more straightforward and has more literary substance. I wish Trump had more substance himself but he is good at tapping into the frustration of the masses and manipulating our feelings. This is why I resent him, because he says so much that I believe in but his past points in the opposite direction. I will not be manipulated because I have common sense. I don’t need a Messiah. I just need these parasitic politicians to stop destroying the Constitution. It takes a real conservative to accomplish that.
I completely gave up Levin for a couple of weeks, but have recently begun trying to give him another chance. My policy is, the very first time he starts going off on Trump, that's it. I turn him off.
He usually doesn't make it more than a couple three minutes.
Rush is going to get the same treatment if he keeps it up.
I don’t know how much more we can afford to lose. We need Cruz as President. We need a strong Conservative. All I know is Trump’s not the answer. If my principles and country are to be betrayed, I’d rather it be by a liberal.
Flies in the face of every other poll out there. Even if those polls are off by 15%, Trump still wins.
Excellent summary of the situation.
