That strategy might well be a bad one for the establishment. The reason Romney won the nomination last time was that he was the only moderate, establishment candidate while there were many other candidates competing for conservative support (Santorum, Bachman, Perry, Gingrich, Cain, etc.). The conservative candidates split the conservative ABR (anyone but Romney) vote and allowed Romney to win.

If the GOP-e is actually trying to win by fielding multiple candidates, let them. It is then incumbent on us to come together to support ONE candidate (maybe Cruz?) and take the nomination by splitting the establishment support.

Being a native Texan, I can say the best vote I'd ever cast besides Ronald (I really miss’ya)Reagan is for Ted Cruz.

Awesome statesman representing Texans! If he runs for president, my time, talent and treasure will go to help elect this man to the highest office of the land.

We need staunch conservatism for a decade or more in an effort to stop/turn back this all out sprint toward hardcore socialism/Marxism. landscape.

Moderate republican candidates will only exacerbate the crisis in our nation.
