Obviously you think Cruz does win hearts and minds?

What evidence is there to support that?

He’s a very smart man, skilled orator, and undoubtedly the best debater that will be on stage.

But winning hearts and minds? The polls don’t show it.

I’m willing to put up with Trump if it gets rid of Jebby.

.....a first-term US Senator who looks in the mirror and sees a
President, and doesn't blush from embarrassment, has an
ambition problem.....

That abouts sums it up.....an observation for the books.

Hope they give you credit.

“I’m willing to put up with Trump if it gets rid of Jebby.”

Ditto. We would survive Trump. We would not survive Jeb or Hillary.

LOL...

Number 2 is wrong. If they were so anti-Government, why do they have TWO Leftists representing them in the Senate?

It has gone blue the last 2 elections.

While you might be right in some instances, there are too many MASSHOLES and Vermont Leftists infiltrating the state.

> “He’s not as good at winning hearts and minds.”

He’s not good yet at winning the hearts and minds of low information voters. That’s because he carries with him the embodiment of the foundations of this country which the low info voters have not been taught or never learned.

Cruz has gone into many many grassroots town halls and competely turned around the crowds to him. He wins hearts and minds left and right. Proof is right here starting at time 1:12:40,

The 16th President of the United States was a one-term Congressman.

Just goes to show ....some people are smarter than others.

Pres Abe is a perfect example.

We have elected three such in history (Harding, JFK, and "Obama"),

Not to diminish your comment because I mostly agree with it, but Harding died after a very short time in office giving us Calvin Coolidge.

Arguably one of the best POTUS this country has ever had.

No I meant Barbara Bush. Dallas people could probably tell you the same thing about about Laura.

I have never run into GWB and Laura but I have seen and interacted with the older Bushs several times. At the pizza place, at the grocery store, at the video store, out taking care of things, not sending SS to do it for them.
Of course the SS was close by protecting them, always. In fact that is how you know they are somewhere close, you see a well dress young man or woman with a wire in their ear.

Ted Cruz just may be too competent for a rapidly declining nation in distress.

And that is precisely why a Trump/Cruz ticket makes sense. Cruz is brilliant, and can take this country back to its founding principles, but unfortunately there's much work to be done before the country is ready for that. Trump is a consummate celebrity salesman who can connect with ordinary Americans and can make the deal for radical reform to clean out the endemic corruption that's taken over Washington. After eight years of repair work the country should be ready for President Cruz to complete the project.

A one-term Congressman who left behind 600 000 dead and 1/3 of the country in ruins.

The Bushies are leftwing, Big Govt socialists and traitors.

GHWB gave us “no new taxes” and a flaming liberal SCOTUS judge, David Souter.

GWB was absolutely despicable - from allowing Ted Kennedy write the Ed bill to pushing amnesty for 40+ million ILLEGAL ALIEN INVADERS to giving us socialists like Traitor Roberts and almost Harriet Myers.

GWB bailed out Wall Street with taxpayer money.

GWB paved the way for Comrade/Imam obamatollah.

Jeanne Shaheen was elected in 2008. Revulsion at the catastrophic waste of Iraq was very strong in NH, and her opponent was up Bush's butt. Kelly Ayotte beat an overt communist in 2010.

I don’t think GWB was as bad as you suggest and after 9/11 he kept the homeland pretty safe.
