Ted Cruz vs. Marco Rubio: This Is Where We Are Headed
Red State ^ | September 21, 2015 | Erick Erickson

Posted on 09/23/2015 7:30:33 AM PDT by Timber Rattler

The sharp and rapid rise of Carly Fiorina is, for me at least, another indicator that polling right now is volatile and flawed. I actually think if primary season started tomorrow, we’d find the last men standing would be Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) 100% and Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) 92%, with Cruz having a slight advantage — for now at least.

The only writing he reads is his own.

I thought Eric moved to Venezuela to be around like minded political friends?

Trump is going to run into trouble soon with ballot access unless he starts building some sort of a ground organization in each state to do the hard work necessary to get elected.

Name recognition and taking a flame thrower to the GOP-E and the Democrats is not enough to get him over the finish line in the long haul.

Did I miss an announcement that Trump, Carson, Fiorina, Bush all dropped out? Because as of right now they are all ahead of Cruz and Rubio.

Erick Erickson is sitting in the corner playing with himself.

Cruz and Rubio are my two favorite candidates, with Cruz being my #1 choice.

Erick Erickson is a pathetic establishment moron. Nobody pays any attention to him since he deliberately left Dr. Carson out of his failed Redstate Forum and disinvited Trump in a bogus attempt to smear and destroy him. Have you heard Erick subbing for Rush lately? You won’t. Erickson’s FB page has been flamed to the point of unbelievability. He is now reduced to posting pics of what he had for dinner last night with accompanying recipe.

Erick Erickson couldn’t see the handwriting on the wall if it was in Braille.

The fact that Pat Colbeck is on board with Cruz tells us that he thinks Ted Cruz is the right man to take on the Obamacare debacle.

Erickson is one of many who believes if he writes, it will come true.

Both Rubio and Cruz are ineligible for president. See Article 2, Section 1, Clause 5 of the United States Constitution.

I think the GOPe may have an even tougher time swallowing Cruz than Trump. He is smarter than all of them, and he’s taken them on IN THE SENATE. Not just on Twitter.

I think you are correct. He is running a media based campaign now to avoid spending money. Cruz is building the infrastructure to win.

No one from the gang of eight should ever cross the plate.

So how is Trump going to get onto the ballot in each state, with its own set of election laws, if he does not have any staff members on site to do all the necessary paperwork and handle the various fees? He can't do it all himself.

The self-delusion of many Trump supporters around here is just becoming ridiculous.
