Well if he is like Newt Gingrich and Rick Perry, Ted Cruz might as well pack it in. The debates are what sunk those two.
Huh?
That's true, but hopefully he won't be that clueless. Perry actually led several polls before he joined the debates.
But whatever happens, conservatives better decide on a candidate after the first couple of primaries or the blue states will once again pick a RINO for us. Looks like there'll be another field with five or more who'll be considered conservative and a couple of well known RINOs.
Cruz will probably do OK.
Cruz graduated cum laude from Princeton University with a Bachelor of Arts from the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs in 1992.
While at Princeton, he competed for the American Whig-Cliosophic Society’s Debate Panel and won the top speaker award at both the 1992 U.S. National Debating Championship and the 1992 North American Debating Championship.
In 1992, he was named U.S. National Speaker of the Year and Team of the Year (with his debate partner, David Panton). Cruz was also a semi-finalist at the 1995 World Universities Debating Championship, making him Princeton’s highest-ranked debater at the championship. Princeton’s debate team later named their annual novice championship after Cruz.
Ted Cruz was a national debate champion I believe;have you not noticed how he devastates well established politicians without breaking stride? Debate is one of his strong points.
On his way to the Senate he tore Dewhurst apart on television and that is what pretty much sealed his victory.
Ted Cruz is not going to lose a debate.
I think ole Newt might be the only one that can “technically” take on Cruz and “informationally”.
Other than that though, Newt’s less than outstanding personal life (historically) and his personal appearance sink his ship before he opens his mouth.
