How ever you folks vote, good on ya. I live in Texas and I’m going to send him back as my Senator as long as he continues to run.

No offense to Ted or his followers, but as a follower of Trump, I haven’t seen the Washington establishment attacking Cruz.

If you all think so, you need to think of yourself as a Trump follower for a week, just as an exercise, and see what a real dissing looks like.

I like Cruz just fine.

I find tremendoud irony though, in the idea that:
Yeb was catching fire!! -- He will take down Trump!
then Carly Fiorina was catching fire!! -- She will take down Trump!
then Ben Carson was catching fire!! -- He will take down Trump!
then Marco Rubio was catching fire!! -- He will take down Trump!

The field has not gotten so thin that the MSM has no choice other than to turn to the ultra Conservative Cruz as almost their last hope to stop Trump. Can you believe the media is touting Cruz?? He's their second least favorite candidate!

As a matter of fact, I wish he could run against Cornyn and get both our votes

If the media is carrying Cruz as you say, from Texas, I’ll take that in a New York minute.

TED CRUZ does not waver from his convictions.

You know, looking at these ratings make me wonder.

If Rubio came out tomorrow and all of a sudden said “You know what. My work on the Gang of 8 was a total disgrace and the idea of a pathway to Citizenship for those who have broken our laws is really, really bad idea. I think they should go home first and get in line with everyone else”

What would happen to Rubio’s poll numbers? Would that statement be taken seriously? Probably not, and for good reason.

Yet Trump flip-flops on everything depending on who he’s trying to pander to, and gets a free pass.

So far I have dropped 200 dollars on Ted Cruz’s campaign. I consider it money well spent.

I absolutely and totally refuse to send one damn dime to the RNC. Years ago I did and regret it. I send money directly to candidates that support my conservative beliefs.

Lots of good points there.

I cast my very first vote in a presidential election for Ronald Reagan. There hasn’t been a genuine conservative on the ballot since. I have a son who will cast *his* first vote in a presidential election in 2016. He’s looking forward to being able to vote for Ted Cruz.

Have you heard the former president say anything critical of our current train wreck of a president?

Like hes' gonna admit he committed treason by letting an Indonesian run for and take his office!

I forgot to add, drop a few dollars on Cruz and Free Republic if you have some to spare.

I am a monthly at Free Republic.
“Hail to Jim Rob and Ted Cruz.” They are both great American Patriots.

Maybe this explains why:

Trump tops GOP field while talking to voters at fourth-grade level

I got an RNC questionnaire and request for money. I wrote "Trump/Cruz" on the form and mailed it back to the RNC without a stamp.
