Fox News: Cruz Campaign accused of "dirty tricks"

The Republican party is not winnning friends or influencing people by saying to the Republican voters in 2016 your vote no long counts.  Think about it!  The popular vote has always been honored by the Delegates unless it was very, very close like in 1952.  We have a public election.  We have all this money being spent.  We have false advertising that say things like, “go vote”, “one man one vote”, “one woman one vote”, “every vote counts”, “you decide 2008”, “you decide 2012” and “you decide 2016”. Now because the Establishment candidates have lost in the Republican Primary....  They...

I was surfing FR this afternoon and suddenly was unable to access any page on FR and the error stated the server could not be found. I located the IP address, 209.157.64.200, of the server and then added an entry into my PC's host file and I can now see FR again. I still do not see a DNS entry for FR, and that is interesting.

Pure vanity for the very best of reasons (less about that later). What repels gypsies? What is their cross, their holy water, their sunlight? I have a friend who needs to ward one off.

Is it just me, or is our flag being lowered to half more and more all the time? Here are the times the US flag has been flown at half mast in the past 6 months (many times for a week at a time.)

If the GOP nominee goes to a brokered convention, what do you predict will happen? Who will they pick as the nominee? How will the Trump voters respond?

I've heard several times that most of America's most shamelful moments, that the Democrats blame on America, were actually done by the Democrats-- Slavery, Japanese Internment camps, etc. I was wondering if anyone here had a list of all of these historic horrible acts done by the democrat party?

This is the most heated GOP primary I remember by far. It seems like there are very strong supporters and haters of Trump. Many talk radio hosts seem to take have taken sides. Prager, Medved, Hewitt, (and slightly Glenn Beck) are against Trump. Limbaugh seems to give Trump moderate support. I'm wondering if anyone has completely stopped listening to any talk show hosts because of their current stances and comments they may have made about your favorite or least favorite candidate.

Now that the primaries have started.... - Who is your first choice of GOP nominee? - Who is your second choice? - Anything that might make you change your mind? (other than your candidate dropping out - What state are you located in?

It's an old tradition to have a republican (or former) to speak at a democrat party or a Democrat (or former) to speak at a Republican convention. If Trump is the GOP nominee, which well known Republicans do your predict will end up speaking on behalf of Hilary?

Has anyone here seen the new movie Risen? Is it any good? How safe or unsafe is it for bringing children to see?

Microsoft will remove Managed Accounts from the standalone Skype communications application from March 30 this year and replace them with standard personal accounts. Skype Managed Accounts is a feature that allows a central administrator to create and maintain accounts for the program. It is aimed at business users, and part of the web-based Skype Manager administration utility. But Managed Accounts will soon be transitioned into standard personal Skype accounts, subject to Microsoft's consumer terms of use, the company said. Allocated Skype credits, subscriptions and numbers will be moved to the personal accounts. Administrators will need to ensure that a valid...

At the end of the day, it's about business. Trump doesn't have the organization Cruz does and won't want to spend the money to build it from scratch. Picking Cruz as Veep allows him to get his organization "wholesale" out of "bankruptcy" at a price that can't be beat "free." Donald's not stupid. He'll make the deal if Cruz is agreeable to it and they can figure out a working partnership.

1. Trump, A+ -- Fought like a champion. Finally, someone with the guts to call out our nation for being 15 years at war, still killing our sons and daughters so politicians can put a feather in their cap, and most of them calling for more war. Bush wants BWIII, Bush War III 2. Carson, A-, quietly but effectively said that he was in it for the people, that he'd been asked to run, and that he wasn't there for any other reason. Outstanding. 3. Rubio, B+, Say what you like, but Rubio wiped the floor with Cruz on the...

What's the best way to cripple America? Well, for one, I'd do it in secret because angry Americans are historically pretty lethal. Secondly, I would do it slowly so that even though I will be boiling the frog, he won't notice until it's too late. I would befriend people high up in the government or rise to high posts in the government. Then, I would strike at the heart of America because when you want to kill something you strike at its most vital part. All this is pretty common sense so far, right? So what is the most vital...

Thanks for standing with me all of these years. Your steadfast support and commitment to fighting important conservative battles has meant so much to Karen and me. As you may have heard, I announced tonight that I will be ending my Presidential campaign. While the results were not what we had hoped, the experience of running for President was tremendously gratifying and something I won't soon forget. And as Karen and I discussed leaving the Presidential race, we also talked about who we should support now that I am stepping aside. There are many qualified, conservative candidates in the race...
