You got a good return on your investment. For the life of me I don’t understand why he doesn’t go up in the polls. He has a very organized campaign so there is still time..

Cruz has an auditory eidetic memory.

If Mitt Romney had that ability against Obama and Candy Crowley he would have won the election.

Instead he crawled up into a corner and lost... mostly because he had nothing to say.

What I was really impressed with was Cruz actually re-enforced all the negatives of each candidate while he was sticking up for them. Brilliant and haven’t heard anyone mention this.

You’re calling a link to a radio show in which I promoted one of CRUZ’S POSITIONS SPAM??? I guess your candidate has another name. I’d prefer Trump with Cruz as my backup in the event the left or the GOPe “eliminate” Trump. And I DO MEAN “ELIMINATE”.

I think he did have that ability; what was lacking was gonads.

I donated but he’s mailed me so many more fundraising requests, I think he may have spent the entire donation just on postage to send me back stuff.

LOL, not sure if that was his intention. Technically only 4 out of the 5 had that reinforced. Kasich was safe.

I’d like to know how Obama would act differently if he was a jihadist. Hating Israel, helping Iran get nukes and money, defying the uprising of the Iranian people, supporting the uprisings against secular Muslim leaders, fighting the ragtag ISIS fecklessly and ineffectively as if it was just for show, withdrawing troops from Iraq to allow Iran and ISIS to move in...

Well, yes, and I think average person can. Most women, when they get mad at their husband, can put that list of misbehaviors to shame.

Indeed!

the wife will repeat past actions, whereas Cruz stripped the covert questions to the bones and revealed to the public exactly what was being asked. That is a lawyer’s job. Not taking out the trash, changing a diaper, or not listening is already in its basic form.

” Could you have done it?”

[Well, yes, and I think average person can. Most women, when they get mad at their husband, can put that list of misbehaviors to shame.]

No you are completely wrong. Few people would have cared if somebody else was attacking they are opponent. As Politicians they’re more interested in their talking points NOT defending their opponents. And remembering the questions is a feat. I don’t know how many shows I’ve seen where somebody is asked multiple questions only to answer the last one and not recall the others AND those are questions directed at them NOT others.

INCISIVE
(adjective)

1. penetrating; cutting; biting; trenchant:
an incisive tone of voice.

2. remarkably clear and direct; sharp; keen; acute:
an incisive method of summarizing the issue.

3. adapted for cutting or piercing.

The point is not that he recited verbatim a list of their questions. The point is that he cut to the heart of those questions and exposed how ridiculous and petty they were ... in a remarkably clear and direct way.
