The only way we can get a Dem out of the WH is to stick together and vote for whoever gets the nod. True. I agree.

Sorry, but the public seems to have chosen Cruz.

On what do you base this claim?

ROMNEY failed because of ONE thing. He is a Mormon.


I disagree. He lost because he could not convince people he meant what he said because he had taken the exact opposite positions previously. He had no credibility with being “severely conservative”. In other words, he was a fake conservative and people knew it.

“His fighter mentality will play well with conservative activists and those who listen to talk radio,” said an Iowa Republican, “but it’s not like he has scored any real accomplishment on rolling back the Affordable Care Act.”

Gee, maybe because there were too many Whiskey Deltas and not enough serious conservatives in the Senate? I was amazed and proud of his floor speech - it was right on target, delivered with seriousness, humor and understated passion. Go Ted Cruz!

““He is the reason Democrats can call Republicans ‘the Party of No,’” said a third Republican.”

That is a prefect representation of why Republicans lose and are ineffective.

They let the Democrats set the agenda and they jump to the Democrat bark.

They also don’t understand that the shutdown and the images of the national parks closed and WWII Vets locked out of their memorials did more to bring in the GOP wave in 2014 than anything.

They may be right. I am afraid that someone of his caliber, character, beliefs and courage cannot be elected President in 2016.

> The GOP wants another Romney type ... like Jeb Bush.
How did that work out for them last time?

Idiots.

Well of course they do. They’re RINOs; members of the Uni-traitor-party. They don’t want a GOP candidate to win because they’re playing for the other team.

If he isn’t the nominee, the Party is done.

Governors are people who lead and do things....Senators are people who vote on things that other people do.

Bill Clinton. Jimmy Carter. Franklin Roosevelt. Woodrow Wilson.

Reagan sure fired the air traffic controllers. Hear Cruz likes that.

We don’t need your negative BS. I also like Walker, but Ted is a better candidate.

If Jeb Bush gets the nomination will you be voting for him?

And I loved it.
I was working in Seymour Johnson AFB in the Control Tower that morning.
We had 4 Learjets and 3 C-140, for the FAA within two hours of that announcement, to pick up some of our air traffic controllers and fly them to go to work in the FAA facilities.
They had 2 hours to pack a bag and get on the planes.
We lost a total of one third of our controllers for almost 2 years to STRIKE BUST the FAA UNION!
Some of them were given a two hour over-the-should by their facility chief controller in the FAA and then left on their own to work traffic.
There were that many FAA controllers who walked out of the FAA and broke their contract with their responsibilities to FLIGHT SAFETY !

“The quotes provide to Politico via unnamed but reportedly influential figures.....”

Sure, that looks credible.

If this job were easy, everybody would be doing it.

Cruz is going to pull it off....he will win.
