I bet the commies are raging “how can anyone possibly speak without a teleprompter?”

Right now, we should FOCUS. Ted Cruz has made a bold move to put conservative values at the front of the discussion. I just don’t see the point of not keeping the emphasis on what’s going on in DC and how Cruz can have a positive impact by being there.

Scared like that.

It’s what I sensed watching the five yesterday bolling, gutfeld and perino
Juan Williams was is wacky self. And guild pulse was just smiling and swinging her leg, saying, ‘I have no problem with Cruz’
But the other three - no wonder rush remarked on it.

It was so senseless. The comments were surprisingly baseless for people in that prime news time position who want to be taken seriously. Gutfeld was snarky and no more reasonable or compelling than a 16 year old girl mad at her prom date, bolling was babbling with a thousand yard stare. Periino seemed despondent. Her forte is PR so she was able to force a both sides statement but clearly passionless about Cruz

They all seem frightened Are they all pro bush? Or are they threatened in being forced to take a stand on conservatism?

What a disappointment to watch people choose the coward position

Cancelled the series record and erased the episode

They seem Frightened

Cruz is accused of being self righteous, in it for himself, and not liked by his colleagues, yet he comes across as genuinely humble, soft spoken, articulate and without a mean bone in his body.

He might have to “up” his passion, in leiu of his measured tone. I realize he won’t allow the nasty, hateful media to “bait” him, but given that he’s at least a million times smarter than all of them put together, I’m happily waiting for him to put each in their place at his first opportunity, and we all know their “bait” questions are coming.

I fear America is too liberal for Ted, but he makes Jebbie look really, really pathetic.

I fear the Left has been too effective in draining the sap out of the Constitution when folks have bought into the "Cruz is too conservative for America" meme they push.

Take a deep breath and figure that you are not unique among the population when you believe in Freedom of the People and that the Federal Government has become corrupt overlords instead of servants of the People.

Do whatever it takes to get the "America is too liberal for Cruz" echoes to stop ringing around in your head - Cruz is the medicine America wants and needs and those who don't realize it will come to their senses as the Left howls and attacks like savage dogs and Cruz smiles and speaks rationally and honestly through it all.

‘Down and Out’

The Democratic Party’s losses at the state level are almost unprecedented, and could cripple it for a long time to come.

Large or small, they are still pockets of resistance...

I agree. He is a courageous conservative. He even told everyone he and his family believe in God and gave their lives to Jesus. Now that is great. I like that.

Votes and stated positions are not rumors.

My take re The Five as well. But Brit Hume has softened a bit, a very small bit. I think the fix is in at Fox - they want to play ‘safe’ with Jeb.

MN and Red Hampshire really stand out on the map, along with little pesky VT.

Cruz is not “too conservative”; it’s the American people who are “too liberal” for Cruz; that’s what I suspect, but he is a great campaigner, and maybe he can make people listen.

Cruz could beat HRC in a debate, but the American people would still think HRC “won” because the moderators would say that she did “on points” if nothing else.
