Again it is NOT about me. What don’t you understand about that?

Nice attempted deflection.

Sorry. Doesn't wash. You can't publicly & openly accuse and malign another's character about an alleged lack of moral consistency all while being exploitive & crass & inconsistent in today's multiple posting history.

Establish your own consistent foundation first, and thereby reflect a stable position to critique another on those same grounds.

Btw, if every pastor & priest was held accountable for the actions of other staffers the way you & many others attempt to nail Cruz, no pastor would be able to remain.

At least Cruz has taken responsibility & has apologized.

I guess that's not enough for you.

Your venom is better directed @ the Rubio campaign UNTIL he comes forward & likewise apologizes.

I'm a Cruzer, but the article make no sense. If Paul is getting single digits, and Trump is expected to win 36-11-11-11-10 as of the latest polling, and only 20 delegates are up for grabs, what will an extra 6 percent do for Cruz? One more delegate, two at most.

Unless something surprising happens, it will be 6-7 for Trump, and 2-3 each for the peleton behind him. Trump will be up overall, around 14-10 over Cruz by the next day (FEB 10). Not exactly devastating with 601 delegates up for grabs on March 1, and over a quarter of those in Texas.

Before Super Tuesday, SC and NV should get Trump to about a 44-23 lead over Cruz... and Texas should make up that difference alone, going by the latest CBS Poll (45-30, Cruz, meaning about a 70-50 breakdown on delegates). That leaves the other 11 states on Super Tuesday to break the tie.

Hopefully the Trump folk won't make life too annoying when he is up by 20 for that week... but present indications are not good on that score, LOL.

“You can’t publicly & openly accuse and malign another’s character”

This is getting very rich.

Ted maligned his own character. I have no control over Ted. Destroyed his “principled” label all by himself. You will never make that change by becoming obsessed with me.

Rand Paul is more liberal than Obama on foreign policy; closer to Dennis Kucinich, calling people “neo-con” and dishonouring Israel like his dad did. Rand should go join the Democrat Party.
