That’s Ted. Spin, spin, spin.

The guy is such a smarmy politician it almost seems retro or a parody.

The outsized ambition of Ted Cruz lead him to ignore Art II Sec. 1 of the Constitution he claims to revere, destroying the GOP is small potatoes.

Cruz can win a contested convention.

Maybe so but I doubt the GOPe will allow him to ascend.

Even if he does his smarmy, sanctimonious demeanor will turn away vast swaths of voters.

Proves Cruz is a real ars! Was a talking machine all along and nothing of redeeming value here. Quit Cruz.

Trump for President.

If four million Republicans didn’t vote in 2012 how many more will not vote if the nominee is picked in an open convention?

Cruz can still win, and we don’t have to hold our nose to vote for a BIG government liberal, like hillary.

It isn’t Trump’s ego. it’s his good old fashioned common sense. He represents a thriving America. Cruz represents politics as usual.
