Cruz enters race with website challenge
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/3271007/posts

> TedCruz.com was created in April of 2004 but then switched ownership last spring. Archived versions of the website indicate that it was formerly run by an Arizona-based real estate firm, Ted Cruz and Associates. The Cruz campaign appears like it will be using TedCruz.org as its primary website. Opponents have also taken control of an alternate domain name for Cruz’s supporters: TedCruzforAmerica.com. Instead of leading to a site for the senator or his political action committee, that website — which was created just Monday morning — automatically redirects users to HealthCare.gov

Rand bots have serious Cruz envy. Serious. Cruz has several inches on Rand - in so many ways - and they know it.....:)

Wait a minute. Paul supporters at Liberty University? Granted, Rand is a little more conservative than the old man, but he’s pretty much a libertarian on social issues. He’s essentially a RINO, yet he has supporters at a conservative institution? What am I missing here?

And the Paulistas begin their trashing of Cruz

Will someone please clone Jerry Garcia in a petri-dish from his DNA and get the Greatful Dead back together so these people have something to do...

Paul supporters at Liberty University?

Who says they were Liberty University students? They could have been from a meet-up group of Rand Paul supporters.

Ted Cruz did not “face off” against Rand Paul, he was on a charm offensive.

And the charm seems to be working. Personal attractiveness is a powerful trait, and one that Ted Cruz possesses and exudes in overwhelming quantities.

With Linda it’s not a DNA problem its ‘her’ chromosomes. ‘She’ makes a good case that transsexualism is Genetic.

Cruz has many leadership attributes one of which he employed today, he is a strategist, most would have thought Cruz would make his announcement in Texas, instead he did so where he was not a favorite son politically, yet still appreciated considered by the crowd maybe as a second choice, I think Cruz knows something and I know in my gut as well, sooner or later; Rand Paul will blow up, as will Scott Walker. Cruz is like a rock securely anchored unmovable in his efforts to restore, protect, defend and promote our most exceptional Constitutional Free Republic.

Another thing about Cruz he has a most rare ability to bring emotion/feelings to facts a strategy that cannot be easily duplicated.

Because he needs to build a coalition to have any chance.

“Maybe that wasn’t a mistake - work to co-opt the college crowd who are the majority of Paul’s supporters.”

Yep. Ted will take the message everywhere.

Well stated. Cruz will face an unbelievable amount of criticism from the evil left and the evil GOPe.

Cruz has the mental strength and love of our Republic to endure it all and to defeat the enemies of Liberty.

Rand Paul HAD supporters at Liberty BEFORE Cruz got in the race.

Between Cruz and his eventual endorsementby Sarah Palin, the fight for the Christian conservative, as well as non-Christian, vote will be over
