Cruz opens door to kick-starting suspended campaign
Fox News ^ | May 10, 2016 | Fox News

Donald Trump may have thought he delivered the knock-out punch to Ted Cruz -- but the Texas senator apparently doesn't see himself down and counted out of the 2016 Republican presidential race.

Not yet, anyway.

Cruz, in an interview Tuesday with radio host and supporter Glenn Beck, opened the door just a crack to kick-starting his now-suspended campaign if he somehow starts winning primary contests again. Asked what he’d do if, for instance, Nebraska voters back him in Tuesday’s primary, Cruz said he assumes that won’t happen but added:

“Let’s be very clear, if there is a path to victory -- we launched this campaign intending to win.”

He said he suspended his campaign last week because he didn’t see a viable path after his loss in Indiana, but, “If that changes, we will certainly respond accordingly.”

Rush is always what he has been. He kept it fairly-well hidden for a long time but it really came out in 2016.

If he does this I will lose all respect for him. Trump is our nominee (well, he will be, anyway), it’s time to step up and support him.

I was working in the lab late one night

when my eyes beheld an eerie sight,

a once dead candidate was on his feet,

and he grabbed a mike, so he could compete,

he did the Cruz, he did the monster Cruz,

he didn’t lose, he said he would refuse,

(aah-ooh)

Now there’s Donald Trump with a silver stake,

he said Ted, I’m sure you made a mistake,

when you said you quit, and you would drop out,

that was your demise, and it left no doubt

there was no Cruz, there was no monster Cruz,

you were like Kasich, Rubio and guys who snooze,

your delegates are gonna give me all their votes,

even if they don’t like all my quotes

(aah-ooh) they did the monster Cruz ...

I suppose that if I were running in a presidential primary, and I was out of money and needed a quick fix of cash, I might suspend my campaign, sneak off to hobnob with the elite of the elite while the press wasn’t looking. The contrast between Ted at the derby mixing with the glitterati and the picture of Fiorino alone at the airport........... Well, politics makes for strange bedfellows and differences of opinion make horse races.

Make dignity your legacy.

Too late. He's already embarrassed 3/4 of the population of Texas.

BTW, let me remind everyone he's a Canadian, not a Texan.

“A motion to unbind all delegates, along with many other underhanded strategies, is being discussed by the elite of the Republican legal establishment, with the permission (if under not the instruction) of Speaker Paul Ryan. Bitter operatives of Ted Cruz even mailed voters before Virginia County conventions in an attempt to grab delegates.”

You really either have no clue what you are saying or are quite the liar. All Trump did was post a picture of Heidi next to Melania not his fault Heidi looked like a hag. Second the affair crap was not Trump it was Rubio and any honest, knowledgeable person is aware of that. And lastly no one said anything about Cruz Sr being a shooter only that he is in photos with LHO which many Castro supporters like Cruz were. You need too stop the crap?

Since I have learned to distrust and verify, I was immediately suspicious when the Harvard lawyer chose the word “suspend” instead of “end”; I have been expecting this.

I read her VP candidacy was the shortest in American political history. (Tom Eagleton was 18 days)

Does she want to lose that important title?

Speaking of resurrections, did Lord Beck resurrect Snarly again for Scruz?

They all say suspend. That’s so they can still raise money to pay off campaign debt.
