So in a Trump-Cruz race, Trump is the Establishment's choice. Whatever happened to the Establishment being his enemy?

That must be why the GOPe types, like CFG and GS, are funding Cruz's campaign, right?

Maybe the film is finally being lifted from their eyes. Trump at his core is one of them.

Oh sure. That’s why all the media and the GOPers are attacking Trump and defending Cruz.

Including this jerk.

I love watching you Cruz supporters scrape the bottom of the barrel in order to provide you hope. Going to the Liberal Media, and now Eric Erickson for solace. Very telling indeed.

Coming from a Romneybot that admonishment doesn’t carry a lot of weight.

The GOPe is in full panic, Rove is spinning in circles. Just ignore them and Cruz on (or Trump on).

Maybe they just realize that Trump will have more than enough delegates going into the convention, and are attempting to come to grips with that.

Of the two, Trump and Cruz, which is the big government candidate?

Hint: it ain’t Cruz.

Nonsense. The GOPe have tried every type of lie and misdirection to stem the tide of their demise.

Did you EVER think you’d read something like that, when it was not a joke? Me neither. Cruz must have them losing control of their bodily functions, or something. I would be loud and proud, were I part of the Cruz Control. Maybe soon, after New Hampshire.

Someone else said Trump is OK because he will deal. I agree with that, and add that Cruz will stand on his principals.

Dang, something has the Cruz crowd desperate.

Cruz can't make it through the primaries without cash from some of those in the establishment and Trump can but we're supposed to believe this ?

I guess they realize the, "Our lawyer is better than their lawyer" stuff isn't working.

That isn’t the way it is from what I read. They want to Trump to take out Cruz and then they figure their own boys will take out Trump - which they (wrongly) figure will be easy.

This is all because they hate Cruz. I once saw Cruz described as the most hated man in the Senate. I guess you might figure this is a good thing because of who hates him but being the lone ranger is a difficult/impossible road in D.C.

Yes, it is. This goes along with the Rand supporters on FB.
