I’d be all for a Trump/Cruz ticket. Or a Cruz/Trump ticket.

Give me the energy, balls, and business savvy of Trump with the conservative values of Cruz.

If we want to lock things up for the next 16 years, probably have to be Trump/Cruz, though.

Let the Don shut down the border and sort out the Islam refugee mess. Cruz can help him make good SCOTUS picks.

Twitter is ablaze with Rubio gay stories at the moment. Some pics claiming to be him at a gay foam bath and a few others.

This I had not heard before.

Yeah, it’s time for Trump to fill in the rhetoric and infighting with policies like he did at first. He should concentrate on the Democrats and treat the Republican field as if they’ve already lost.

Stop playing games and lead again.

” Cruz can help him make good SCOTUS picks.”

Unlike most candidates, at least we know WHO Ted Cruz would pick....JOHN ROBERTS and other sell outs just like him. Cruz recruited and handpicked his old friend Roberts for Scotus for Bush. Cruz is the reason we are stuck with Obamacare.

All talk about Trump/Cruz coalitions are immature. It can only happen if one of them first drops out of the race. Any takers, no. In the history of presidential elections in their current configuration, this scenario has never happened, and never will. Talk of it is just childish. Both candidates when run as hard as they can, against each other, until one of them wins, or both of them lose.

What’s Cruz going to do about Canada? That isn’t going away because Mark Levin or Rush said...no chance.

The Tombstone TumbleWeed has more readers and better reporting than Lifezette.com.

If Cruz ends up on the ticket, I am staying home.

My biggest fear is that Cruz and Trump could split the conservative vote and let Rubio the RINO sneak in.

Trump is more establishment than Rubio. Trusting Trump is a big mistake. It’s just a question of when you will get backstabbed.

I think Laura is trying to unite. It isn’t going to happen.

Never was because Rubio will get the nomination.

Yes, we need more judicial activists on the Court. Forget the “voters need to be accountable for the way they vote” claptrap. That kind of conservatism has no place here!

I can’t fathom The Don lowering himself to the VP position.

And I couldn’t fathom Cruz offering it to him.

I don’t know where Rubio stands in the New Hampshire polls, but he’s probably going to get a bounce coming out of Iowa. Maybe not enough time for such a bounce to show in polls before the vote in New Hampshire, but enough time for media coverage to re-set expectations and give The Rube momentum.

I believe New Hampshire is now a must-win for Trump and I wonder if Rubio might actually be a threat to Trump there. If Rubio does defeat Trump in NH I think Trump is a goner at that point; his “winner” brand would be twice defeated. And I don’t think his twitter messages today are helping him.

I suspect my guy Cruz will be primarily a spectator in NH. If he came in second I would be ecstatic. But he will need to be very strong in SC afterward.

That’s the way it usually works. Welcome to Silly Season.

Yep, Rubio, or as I like to call him, fresh meat for Hillary Chuckie Schumer's butt-boy.

What’s Cruz going to do about Canada?

 

Of equal concern; what is he going to do about France? Or Brazil? Or Sweden? Or....

I hope that Trump will not say anything more what he is planning to do or his ideas as Cruz copies everything Trump says, Build a Wall, Support the Vets, Deport illegals, Tax reform. What has Cruz said in his campaign speeches that anyone else can copy? Not a Damn Thing.
