That’s what the most recent polls show...

>>”Those polls are 2 weeks old, and show carson over clinton +4! “

That’s the most recent polls and they show Trump losing to Clinton.

That was my post, FRiend.

C'mon, we both know polls are intended to direct rather than inform. And if anybody believes ben could EVER beat hillary they belong in the loony ben.

Well, I’d agree with you on polls, but then, the Donald is sooooo invested in them, it’s like his whole schtick, y’know?

Steve King: "With Ted Cruz, conservatives no longer have to accept a Republican nominee who does not truly share our values."

Really?

During the Fox News Debate last month, Megyn Kelly asked Ted Cruz if he would deport the 12 million illegal immigrants in the USA.

Cruz refused to answer!

Cruz said the question was a distraction from more important immigration issues.

In 2013, Cruz stated that he supported “work permits” for illegal aliens (but no path to citizenship).

Cruz's just released “new” immigration policy does not mandate universal E-Verify.

Cruz's “new” policy does not call for a reduction in LEGAL immigration, which means that Cruz will probably lose Texas if he runs for president in 2020.

201t? Is that like a 501(c)? Or the IoT? A 401(k)?

I could go on, but the possibilities are endless! *grin*

Or is that short for an Illudium Q-36 Explosive Space Modulator?

Just wondering...

Re: “Steve King, still don't know who he is...”

He used to be one of the most passionate supporters of strict enforcement of the immigration laws.

Not any more.

I think he voted for Paul “Mr. Amnesty” Ryan for House Speaker, too.

Thanks. Whenever the Alzheimers posters start up about some fart, I get suspicious...

Cruz is for amnesty:

KING: If you’re thinking about kicking doors down and deporting people, I know that’s not been mentioned or discussed between myself and Ted Cruz. That’s not the way - well, maybe it’s the way for another candidate, but it’s not the way Ted Cruz envisions this, and it’s not the way I envision it.

Anyone who supports Cruz gets smeared by Trump supporters as a RINO. Somehow an ersatz newbie conservative, like Trump, is supposed to be our champion and a brilliant, lifelong, fully dedicated conservative like Cruz to be ignored for a vulgar mountebank like Trump.

Correct. You go with the mob or the mob will kill you.

Cruz has ONE issue they always point to (h1b) as being the sole reason he is disqualified as a candidate. Trump has NUMEROUS reasons why he should be disqualified but they claim he has progressed (I have yet to see evidence of that by the way, just a lot of hot air so far) yet when Cruz changes his policy on immigration and releases an arguably stronger immigration policy than Trump, the trump folks ignore it.

Free Republic is becoming a very loud echo chamber for a very non-conservative candidate. It's VERY reminiscent of the same folks who were Willard supporters... I wish they would wake up and see the unknown they are supporting so blindly... It would be one thing if this had been 2012 or 2008. Trump would mark a huge difference from those candidates. We HAVE REAL conservative candidates this time around yet we are potentially going to squander it for a Hillary supporting, land grabbing socialist. Okay...

Show me where.

Stop perpetuating this lie. Investigate and look into what his policy actually says.

There is not a more conservative immigration policy. Certainly not anymore conservative within the Trump campaign.

Don’t know.

If he is, endorsing Cruz, who has roundly denounced ethanol, would not make any sense.

Steve King generally supports the Renewable Fuels Standard. Many issues, for better or worse, are decided for other-than-ideological reasons. Until there is some kind of state or regional rebellion against the Federal government, practical life goes on.

...other-than-ideological reasons.

That's a great euphamism for political payoff, corruption, crony capitalism and graft.

Don’t know.

If he is, endorsing Cruz, who has roundly denounced ethanol, would not make any sense.

Congress has racked up nearly $17 trillion in national debt, in part due to unnecessary taxpayer spending on mature industries such as corn ethanol.

This spending habit is enabled by lawmakers who refuse to acknowledge the plethora of subsidies showered upon these industries. For instance, at a policy forum last week, Representative Steve King (R-IA) asserted, “there is no subsidy for corn-based ethanol.”

Rep. King was no doubt attempting to placate the corn ethanol lobby and the many corn growers in his northwest Iowa district, but his statement deserves to be set straight.


In other words, king is just another duplicitous lying sack of crp, a perfect example of what's wrong with this country.

But in this case he is doing the highest and best good by endorsing the only qualified candidate in the race.

We need for every state to go to Cruz, to slam the door in the face of the GOPe thugs.
