Will Wisconsin Be Trump's Waterloo?
RealClearPolitics ^ | April 3, 2016 | Salena Zito

Posted on 04/03/2016 6:12:24 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

What rich irony, if one of the most calculating politicians in modern American politics miscalculated the will of Wisconsin's Republican voters, something Democrats have done repeatedly since 2010.

If Donald Trump loses Wisconsin's primary on Tuesday, it will not be because of the uproar over his comments about Ted Cruz's wife, Heidi. Or his reaction to the confrontation with a female reporter that led to an arrest summons for his campaign manager. Or even his suggestion that women who get abortions should face “some form of punishment” if Roe v. Wade is overturned.

Instead, it will be his misunderstanding of Badger State conservatives' deep relationship with their elected officials, one that does not take well to outsiders trying to divide them from the people they worked so hard to put and keep in office.

Trump ran into a buzz saw in Wisconsin last week when he went on the local talk-radio circuit, which is staunchly conservative and widely influences Republican voters — very different from national talk-show hosts who don't ask him tough questions and lean toward rabble-rousing rather than ideological discussions....

Please provide actual proof that he committed adultery or quit repeating the claim.

Well, that he refused to DIRECTLY answer the question answered it for me. Hiding behind snarly then showering us with lawyer bilge was pathetic, typical of cruise.

Yes, and what is amazing is the change since 2012.. The Obama bs was accepted as truth, though Romney did not put up much of a fight against it. Still in just 4 years, people are ignoring the MSM.. This is the MSM’s Waterloo...

The proof that Cruz committed adultery is when he refused to answer the question if he committed adultery-— lol— Show me a married man who refuses to answer that question and I will show you one who has committed adultery..

See EEE’s post here;

“...Polls showing Cruz ahead in WI aren’t taking into account that WI is an open primary state and Trump will get crossover blue-collar and Democrat voters. ...”

LOL! Like Daddy Cruz, like nastycruzer.

I seem to remember you getting slapped around just yesterday for your nastycruzer claim that "If my dad left me $200 million I’m pretty sure I’d be a “billionaire” today".

You didn't "provide actual proof", but I'm sure you'll be "repeating the claim" some time in the future. :)

Remove the log in your eye before you complain about a splinter in someone else's. :)

I cannot get past it,he is quite handsone,and seems to be fair looking especially contrasted with the black hair. I remember when Biden got the hair,it was comical at the time. I just look away when he comes on the screen now.

Trump has won four of the 26 polls conducted since last Summer in Wisconsin and Cruz has won I think 8 of the last 11

Yet the media and bot narrative is Trump just collapsed in Wisconsin

It was never his to lose

I doubt he wins but if he did it would be a huge upset and always woulda been

And you are smart enough to know that but given you’re a Cruz narrative setting warlord on Free Republic you spread the bullshit

Watching you this season one wonders is that what you do all the time

You rival John Huang and Hi Jinx in the off season

Look, I’m a Wisconsinite too. Born and raised here, and I’m telling you ever since Walker got big-headed after his recall victory and decided to run for President, he has simply become another establishment hack.

Walker, Ryan are totally irrelevant in this primary.

WI will be Cruz’s Waterloo if he loses.

You'd better hope not, 2nd, because without Trump, cruise is dead.

If he wins the nomination, drumpf will need to inspire Ted Cruz's enthusiastic army of volunteers if he wants to win the White House.

Paranoid conspiracy theories are for entertainment purposes only (except for Trutherism, which is despicable). They are not for serious consumption.
