Think about it. Has Cruz campaign rhetoric told us anything he'd do to strip power of the big banks or reverse globalism?
I like to think of myself as a mesocon.
I think Cruz and the others are all pusses for doing the fox debate knowing that they had a bunch of progressives lined up to moderate.
Among other things, Cruz won the case against the Bush Administration and the World Courts defending US Sovereignty
DEFENDING U.S. SOVEREIGNTY, SEPARATION OF POWERS, AND FEDERALISM IN MEDELLÃN V. TEXAS
Cruz has famously opposed the Export-Import Bank legislation even calling out McConnell as a liar on the Senate Floor.

He also strongly opposes the bailouts.
Ted Cruz: I Would 'Absolutely Not' Bail Out The Big Banks Again!
“Somehow I think that we are going to get the New Boss as in the old saying- Meet the New Boss, same as the Old Boss.”
My fear as well, no matter who wins. Even if it is my candidate. I’m voting for ‘least likely to sell out’.
Not a one of them are rock solid. Not one. All we can know is that some are definitely false.
Gee, I always thought from his name that The Donald was a man. I never imagined that, like Megyn Kelly, The Donald even had a “wherever.”
Yeah, well here’s another good one ... very scary

I saw that recently and it confirmed my suspicions about Ted Cruz. Hopefully tomorrow will put this all behind us.
You and I both ..
Looks like Cruz shares some interesting company ...

It looks like an information source provider. The three candidates you mentioned have significantly foreign policies.
Let me get this straight. His foreign relations advisers include a CIA director and a former staffer for Don Rumsfeld who requires people to read an essay by Jeanne Kirkpatrick, and this is supposed to be troubling? I’d like to hear what people and their outlooks and qualifications this writer would prefer.
I am at the point where I don't care about Iowa, Iowans, or their Byzantine political process. I just hope he doesn't get bragging rights about coming in first!
YEah, came up with it during the Arab Spring. Haven’t seen a reason to change it since.
When your opinion of me matters... I will let you know. It is my experience personal attacks are the last resort of those without a true defense.. those who have no facts, evidence or truth. You do not even know me, so what evidence do you havem. More proof trumpeteers are liberals through and through. Are you going after my kids next?
This to me is a big, big advantage of Trump. (Cruz IMO has the advantage of now fully opposing amnesty.)
But I don’t think Trump would be militarily activist. I think he well learned from Reagan’s position and results internationally.
Rubio BTW is really bad—more or less a younger Lindsey Graham.
Even Cruz. The attacks against him do not worry me so much as his reactions. He seems suddenly wobbly. And Trump- if he really follows through with Single Payer for the least ones which would likely become Single Payer all around he will not do much positive for the economy. Doing all the right things like minimalizing Regulation and taxes on business would have wonderful results except for the Socialized medicine which would continue to stifle the economy.
“When your opinion of me matters... I will let you know.”
It must; you just did.
“You do not even know me, so what evidence do you have.”
The evidence is the insult you posted. Trump pulled out of the debate over the smear published by Ailes. Also, that was/is the going concern for insults by Cruz bots. If I read it once, I read it a hundred times. A lie repeated is still a lie.
“Are you going after my kids next?
And what were you saying about in your experience personal attack are the last resort of those without a true defense?
Wow. I am so sick of chickenhawk globalists.
“Rubio BTW is really bad-more or less a younger Lindsey Graham.”
That is the blackest of a number of big marks against him. I’d find him equivalent on balance with Cruz but for that.
