What Ted should have said is that Carly is brilliant at destroying corporations so he could put her in charge of the federal bureaucracy. :-)

One thing is, I don’t own a decent suit, so I may look pretty bad when I meet with heads of other countries.

I do have a nice turtleneck sweater and I may wear that in place of my old suit (which has some rather poorly done patches in the elbows and knees).

------------------------

To win what? Cruz already lost.

This is more about Cruz people draining their donors dry until he eventually drops out in order to pay all of his high salary costs and probable future campaign debt. Cruz donors at this point are suckers. Not other reason Cruz would be embarrassing himself so much. The minute Cruz suspends, hundreds of people will literally not have a paycheck deposited into their checking account the following week. That is just one of the slimy reasons Cruz continues to stay in at this point. It is always about the money and power. His campaign wants to give those who are about to lose their gravy train Cruz job, time to get another job lined up and not lose any income. And the only way they can pay Cruz campaign staff is With Other Peoples Money, i.e. stupid Cruz donars. No other reason Cruz would be embarrassing himself so much at this point. Something is off. Delusions of Grandeur.

Someone on the Cruz campaign needs to man up and call for an intervention. There is too much second hand embarrassment. The SNL jokes write themselves.

Second hand embarrassment. There needs to be an intervention.

No dear, you posted vague, guilt by association, conspiracy crap. I realize you may think those are facts, as many Trumpkins seem afflicted with this disease of the mind, but they are laughably not facts. If I were to judge Donald Trump by all the stupid conspiracy theories on the internet, he would be a mob boss, Nazi, but I am not going to jump on some guy merely because of loose associations, or vague assumptions.

I judge Ted Cruz by what the man has done. Not by whom he was caught talking to, nor what secret meeting some nimrod on the internet told me about, but by his actions.

By his actions, by his accomplishments in life, Ted Cruz is an impressive man.

I’m done with Cruz. I thought he would be the right person for the job. I even lost a liberal friend over arguing about his merits a year ago. I was proud he was my senator. Now, I’m just frustrated and annoyed with him. Get out already! Keep some shred of dignity! Sadly, I think it’s too late. Friends and family are switching to Trump.

I like Cruz by giving him the benefit of the doubt, don’t care for Carly,..but I have to admit, it’s the Ugly Ticket.

IMHO, it’s going to boil down to a Trump vs Hillary campaign and maybe this is the best way to shift Cruz voters to Trump.

Welcome aboard.

Cruz has been very deceptive, so don’t feel bad.

Brilliant!

Cruz reeks of desperation. Carly is even less likable than he is...and that's saying a lot.

Wow! Never thought of that angle... That might be the quickest way to trim/butcher the federal bureaucracy. (And most fun and brutal...!)

“In other news.. Lynsey Graham picked Barney Frank as his vp...”

That would be quite the felicitous couple... err... ticket.

Both he an Kasich have elected jobs to do and not one slight chance of getting the required delegates by vote, and; they continue to piss away donor money as opposed to working. Perhaps each will get a well deserved beating with Cruz losing his Senate seat and Kasich no longer is Governor. That is what they deserve.

McCain’s pick frightened Independents to Obama, Romney chose somebody from Congress with a 10% approval rating, in the middle of his food fight with Obama......Ted Cruz decides that the further he gets from getting the GOP nomination, the more he has to imitate past GOP losers ...& try to win Indiana after picking the lay-off queen as his CEO running-mistress
