There are several “acceptable” GOP candidates but only one outstanding candidate. Go Ted Cruz!!!

Regarding your tagline... How about, “Cruz speaks for me!”

"When a simple reference to God as the source of human rights causes screeches of denial you know you have a real problem. This is going to be a very ugly campaign season."

Even more telling is that references to God as the source of human rights appear in the Declaration of Independence, the speeches of JFK and MLK, and in countless other places throughout our history. They are taking a very mainstream sentiment and trying to make it appear radical and dangerous.

True words well said

We conservatives need to gel early behind someone of principle so that we can take down the idiots and pissy class

"I do not know about you guys, but I am done with moderate Republican clone presidential nominees like McCain, Romney, Jeb Bush, and Christie. If I go down in defeat, I want to go down inspiring my fellow Americans to come up higher, fighting my butt off for liberty and freedom behind the likes of a Ted Cruz."

I emailed this article to my contacts with that line bolded, italicized and doubled in size.

This type of “conservative” has probably not come to terms with the fact they are not really conservatives but a CINO and more of a Party hack.

Reagan has his own spineless Republican party hacks and consultants to deal with as well who screamed, gripped and moaned all the time, tone it down, get along, you might hurt someone’s feelings or make them have to come to terms with their feelings and beliefs, can’t do that. To this Reagan’s supporters would say let Reagan be Reagan... Let Cruz be Cruz...

Same here.

I live in MA so my options are usually pretty nil but if neither Cruz or Walker are still on the ballot i will write in Ted Cruz.
ENOUGH of this BS!

Well, if “conservatives” think Cruz is a little embarrassing and scary; just wait until the next MODERATE takes over and continues on with the Obama agenda.

AND .. IT’S NOT CONSERVATIVES WHO THINK THIS WAY - IT’S THE MODERATE REPUBS - The John Boehner’s and McConnell’s of this world.

STOP allowing the media to quote moderates as “conservatives”.

what of all that sounds so extreme.


Inviting a substantive debate on any particular issue - something the left will attempt to avoid.

They are coming out strong against Cruz because they perceive Cruz as having the strong spine to stand up to out of control liberalism. My own previous favorite, Scott Walker, seems ready to cave on two anti-conservative programs already: ethanol and amnesty for illegal alienss.
