Hey, Ted Cruz, diss New York and you diss the land of winners

Trump is a lock for winning the New York Republican primary.

Trump doesn’t have a snowball’s chance in hell of winning New York in the general election; not as long as he has an “R” behind his name.

New Yorkers can be as butt-hurt as they want. If they want respect from conservatives, stop electing communists.

[Windflier]

You’re sweet. Thank you!

Amazing isn’t it? I grew up in NYC. I avoid it now like the plague.

[nopardons]

Just WHO are you calling a “LIBERAL”, you damned n00b?

[nopardons]

I’m a plain speaking, well bred, CONSERVATIVE ex-pat New Yorker. :-)

“Guess trump supporters will rush to move to new york and enjoy the heavy foot of big govt on their backs”

Okay.

Guess cruz supporters will rush to say horrible things about trump, who happens to be a natural-born-citizen from Queens, NY. You don’t expect Trump to defend his state???

[Gene Eric]

>> he once had some supporters there.

I still like Cruz, but New York is Trump’s to lose.

Regarding NYC’s ultra-liberalism, Staten Island, one of the 5 NYC boroughs just south of Manhattan, virtually split the Presidential vote in 2012.

New York is “huge”. And it’s both liberal and conservative. It’s a great state, but too expensive.

[BlackFemaleArmyColonel]

TRUE!

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

No, this has backfired big time on the Canadian.

Why are you taking what he said out of context?

He was talking about New York Values, they are not conservative values, no matter how many conservatives have come out of there.

Sheesh, defensive much?

[nopardons]

Trump's supporters will NOT dissert him and he'll only get more now.

Cruz did no such thing; that's just you uninformed, biased opinion.

[a fool in paradise]

FDR, now THERE is a President to hold up. Not.

[a fool in paradise]

Cruz has lately been grumbling about the neoconservatives (a movement launched largely by New York intellectuals). He lashed out the other day at the "billionaire Republican donors" who "actively despise our base."

Nanny Bloomberg is another New Yorker.

[nopardons]

You’re dead wrong!
He’ll win N .Y., N.J., Pa, and perhaps several N.E. states as well.

Not if you click on my FRName -- and read my FRProfile. (But, what should I expect from someone who is too lazy or ignorant to post their own?)

BTW, like it or not, it was not Texans who sneered at the rest of the country with the term, "Flyover Country"...

[jwalsh07]

Obama won about 2 million votes in just New York City. Romney got about 400,000. So New York values which are being defended here at FR gave 80% of their votes to Obama and now New York values are FR values. Go figure.

[crazyhorse691]

Just as your opinion is uninformed and biased. Except my opinion is not based on emotionalism or name calling.

[jwalsh07]

Lol.

[Reaper19]

The vast majority of the residents of New York City. Are you disputing this?
