Let’s talk about rule 50 ... rule 50 is that there is no way in hell that I can convince the people that I know, who supported Trump, to then support Cruz in the unlikely event that Cruz gets handed Trump’s stolen nomination ...they will laugh in our faces at the prospect of voting Cruz and they will sit it out ..Trump is the only reason they voted ...that’s rule 50, tell all the Cruzbots to study that one ...
If you have some proof of that you should present it. It is certainly not the reason Cruz is scooping delegates like butterscotch ice cream. The effort for that was underway long before any there was any talk of an imaginary and non-existent GOPe-Cruz love affair.
Cruz built an organization to win these delegates. Trump didn't. It's that simple. Get used to it, there is more to come.
Sure. We're a democracy and not a Constitutional Republic. /s
Sure thing ..good luck with it ..
Trump is winning voters.
He has quite a lot of them.
Cruz is not inspiring, he is not right, and if nominated will lose to the democrat.
Post 41 ... rule 50 ...get used to it ...
You are correct...my nuance aside.
There is still a democratic process. Or at least there should be.
Hate the game, not the player.. The winner is who gets the most delegates. How can FReepers be upset with a constitutional conservative that is doing his utmost to become President and restore the Constitution?
You do realize that republicans have about zero chance of winning calirado in the november election. The entire state has been overrun by flaming liberals out of california.
Ted Cruz does great in elections where the people are not allowed to vote
Not sure that is the message Ted wants to send
Thanks for the info.
... Congratulations Ted Cruz. Tomorrow I will be part of the Iowa team that will try to get you 12 more delegates.
Thank you for working for Cruz, good luck.
He would have gotten the nomination too if it weren’t for those pesky voters!
What vote rigging? That’s how nominees are picked. Trump has the lead and Cruz is trying to catch him within the rules of the game. What a whiny bunch
And even more don’t want Ted
So what was your point?
Read post 28.
Only an idiot would think Ted is trying to “catch” him. It’s not mathematically possible.
That’s all fine and good and good luck with it ...they might steal the nom, but they damn sure won’t win the general with Cruz ...it will never happen
