Cruz defends himself against Rubio immigration attacks which have happened repeatedly at every debate and somehow Cruz is divisive?

Same for Trump.

That’s all fine and great , but the big problem remains ...Cruz is unelectable in the general election

If there was ANY doubt I had about Cruz being a winner, this post extinguished it.

Definitively, absolutely, indubitably, this article proves Cruz a loser.

Rube Goldberg looks simpler in proving a point.

Trump is a private citizen not a sitting senator. Trump didn’t promise anyone anything and he did not have a vote in Congress.

Carter was ahead of Reagan all the way up to election day.

There are absolutely no circumstances where Cruz can win the nomination ,much less the general .. the estab is planning on stealing it and only Trump can stop them

Cruz' Personality Lends Itself to Executive Office

I don't agree. Cruz' training and background is as a lawyer, debater and sitting senator. These lend themselves to the back and forth of a debate but not as a decision-maker.

Trump, on the other hand, is a businessman and chief executive, where he has to make numerous decisions. This skill lends itself more to the executive office of the presidency.

Medved is a weak sister. You can’t play nice with people that care more about themselves than saving the country.

Both James Carville and Mary Matalin just said Cruz will win the primary.

One thing’s for sure, they know more about politics than you.

I don’t know how many times that has been linked to. Again, Trump is a private citizen not a sitting politician. He didn’t promise anyone anything to get their vote.
