Shocking level of clarity in this article
Which means the thread will likely be an insult-a-thon.
Cruz will not be elected. Period.
If he wins the nomination, he will lose. Big time.
No
Yep. Just what we need. Another politician.
.
Why not? You post these things to take digs at Trump and then boast about what a masterful delegate wheedler Ted is.
The problem is that Ted can’t wheedle Electors from the General Election. All the states that Ted would want to win are those who have “Faithless Elector” laws that keep them from denying voter wishes. Go look at that map.
“The problem is that Ted can’t wheedle Electors from the General Election.”
Exactly.
What state will Ted Cruz win that Romney did not?
The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result.
Voting for yet another ivy league lawyer who became an elected official who has not even finished his first term is insanity,
Yep. Consider the last five Republicans who have won the presidency: Ike, Nixon, Reagan, Bush I, and Bush II. All were household names before they ran. Cruz does not have that advantage.
In regards to electability, Cruz is Goldwater, part II.
NOPE! Don't even need to read the article. Trump and his supporters, with the assistance of the media and GOPe, have made certain that Cruz is damaged goods. I've talked to Trump supporters (who claim to be conservatives and libertarians) that would rather see Clinton, or Sanders elected than Cruz.
A professional career politician knows how to run a campaign and spend OPM? Shocking.
Google will pop up a map of Faithless Elector Law states. If I were Ted looking at the map, I’d have a pit in the bottom of my stomach about the ones I couldn’t get except through a true voter win. All the ones he needs.
Reminds you of Paultards.
Since the sitting president wasn’t assassinated last November, I fail to see the similarity.
That's for sure. Lincoln had a dry wit. Cruz causes dry heaves.
He is selectable not electable
And one only needs to remember that the leftist media is under orders to go soft on Cruz for the time being.
If he was the actual nominee, the press will make him into the next Bob Dole.
But the usual insufferable naiveté of the “conservative media” blows all type of pie in the sky BS to the his supporters looking for their next opium hit, making them think that Cruz has a chance in hell.
The same people that told us that Dole, McCain, and Romney were strong candidates.
Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln, Coolidge and Reagan were all politicians.
