He could not deliver Wisconsin for Romney, could he?

There are Freepers who support Ted Cruz because he is a fighter and a great conservative.

Then there are Freepers who make idiotic statements by attacking Cruz's potential opponents, making Cruz's supporters look like political hacks.

Romney couldn't win Wisconsin because he's Mitt Romney.
Romney couldn't win Florida because he's Mitt Romney.
Romney was a terrible candidate, and attacking Walker for Romney's shortcomings makes you look like a political hack. This does not help Ted Cruz.

I support Cruz first. I don't see the point in making Cruz supporters look stupid.

“There are Freepers who support Ted Cruz because he is a fighter and a great conservative....Then there are Freepers who make idiotic statements by attacking Cruz’s potential opponents, making Cruz’s supporters look like political hacks.”

AMEN to that. It seems that there is NO limit to the lies or distortions of another candidate’s views that will not be used by (some here on FR) “Cruz” supporters. They DO NOT help Ted Cruz, they just build ill will. As an example, they will pillor Santorum or Huckabee because they fear either of those men many pull social conservative votes away from Cruz. While those men may initially do so, Ted Cruz WILL need those voters that initially go for those primarily social conservative candidates (and the endorsement of those candidates). Insulting these candidates does not help Ted Cruz in the long run.

Of course, you are talking about Walker, and for some reason you mentioned Romney....but the logic holds.

Those ardent Ted Cruz supporters should FOCUS ON HOW GOOD TED CRUZ IS, NOT ON HOW BAD HIS OPPONENTS ARE.
