Three for the Money: Carly, Walker, and Cruz
The American Thinker ^ | July 26, 2015 | Clarice Feldman

This week, three of the Republican candidates showed their mettle and had very good weeks......

Carly Fiorina

Carly’s ability to handle the press and make a name for herself without a large staff or campaign chest continues. This week, she capitalized on videos showing Planned Parenthood to be involved in a distasteful racket, negotiating for the best price for aborted fetal tissue.

Mainstream news outlets pretty much ignored the story,.......Carly Fiorina, however, with her penchant for the main shot, did not ignore the issue....

The more people see her in action, the more they like her.

Scott Walker

Scott Walker also carried on the fight against the left’s gotcha tricks and stupid ideas.

..Scott Walker, too, held his ground and adroitly managed a setup by pro-illegal immigration backers who’d transported an illegal alien and his family to one of his appearances and had the kid beg that the family not be separated:..

On the preposterous Iran deal,...Walker spoke for most of us: in an interview with the National Interest’s editor:....

[SNIP]

Ted Cruz

Cruz is also a great debater and this week in a move that took a lot of people’s breath away, he challenged Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, whom most conservatives consider a failure, a tool of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, too willing to cozy up to Democrats for the benefit of big business, and too willing to ignore the election promises made to Republican voters...

He targeted McConnell’s actions on blocking the defunding of the Export-Import Bank, widely viewed as a tool of corporate cronyism. He included in his attack on the procedural jostling the McConnell actions on ending the Congressional exemption to ObamaCare and funding to Planned Parenthood in the must-pass Transportation Bill, using language stronger than ever any of us can remember hearing on the floor of the usually decorous U.S. Senate:.....

The problem is that Freepers may not know just HOW MUCH Fiorina is abslutely HATED by people affected by her idiocy.

It is inconceivable that people want to put her in charge of even an ice cream truck.

She will lose the candidate votes rather than secure them.

I feel terrible, I keep forgetting how formidable Carly is. I need to follow her more.

I sent her a small donation because I appreciate what she's doing.

Carly is so much more than Hillary ever thought about being...Hilary only rides Bill's coattails!

She destroyed the successful culture at HP and it took years for them to recover.

A lot of people either never knew this or have forgotten. Those that worked for HP haven't forgotten.

my gut feeling is she couldn’t beat Hillary. That could change as well but I doubt it.
Call me a cockeyed optimist, but IMHO it’s so far to the nomination that I don’t even know for sure that Hillary will be on the ticket. It just might be John Kerry, or even Al Gore.
The assumption that it’ll be Hillary is the assumption that the not only the mendacity but also the reach of the MSM is unlimited. Both are large, but somehow Republicans have been elected POTUS as regularly as not.

I don’t think Hillary Clinton will be the Dim nominee. I really believe it will be Elizabeth Warren. Yeah, I know: She said she’s not running. I think she will, though, be “drafted.”

Clinton (I refuse to call her Hillary) would rather not have to run at all...she’d prefer being annointed and get it over with. Campaigns are for peasants in her mind.

Carly Fiorina, on the other hand, is stellar in my opinion. She speaks truth with authority, clarity, conviction. She is taking the fight directly to Clinton and the libs. She’s got my attention, for sure.

Yes, Senator Cruz has just described the problem with the GOP in one sentence. I’m completely disgusted with them, I’ve supported and worked for Republicans for over fifty years, never missed an election or primary, never voted for a democrat except those who ran as Republicans like Senators Cochran and Wicker.
