I hope the Cruz fever breaks for some of the long-time FReepers who are still pining for a contested convention and a Cruz nomination that elects Hillary.

Cruz fever is sort of like the Thompson fever in 2008. Of course, the same kind of fever plagued those of many other wannabe candidates in 2008, 2012 and 2016. Too many project what they want their candidate to be, rather than what their candidate really is. They don't want the fog to lift, because they don't want to see the real nature of their preference.

On Thompson, for example, I spent 5 minutes on Google and related searchs and found out Thompson was more McCainish than Reaganish, even though he ran ads about how conservative he was.

On Cruz, his and wife's histories do him in. He is not the conservative his sycophants (including Levin and Limbaugh) claim him to be. His legislative history in the US Senate shows he introduced only one bill. He has done little in the Senate to promote anything conservative. He became a Senator solely for the purpose of running for the presidency.

Thompson was never really a real candidate, he was simply running as a blocker for McCain. They have been rigging these nominations for years with these kinds of tactics.
When Ted Cruz joined forces with the Yeb! team it should have been enough to wake up even the most obtuse.

Heidi was the key to Ted’s real agenda.

Ted’s been hiding behind Heidi’s skirts.

Plus, He’s not eligible and should not have had the audacity to run for potus.

That, right there, is a huge red flag on his schtick.

And his father has dropped enough red flags to line the streets for a commie May-day parade. And those red flags would kill any Cuban support he could have eeked out of Florida. The more we learn about all the Cruz’s, the more unelectable he becomes.

I disrespect Cruz for this original deceit above all his other lyin’ cheatin’ schemin’ politicin’ games.
