I know enough not to use ‘y’all’ in the singular.

"Y'all" IS singular.

"All-y'all" is plural. Everyone knows that.

Hey thanks, I thought it sounded too much like a boring NYT or NR article. Woo, that was close.

If I was you, I would ignore my posts. I mark them pretty well.

Nice dodge. The kind of answer you give when you can’t explain why the Kochs enriched the likes of Chucky Schumer.

Seems to me that if these allegations are true, Cruz would have a hard time accusing Hillary of Wall Street cronyism.

Good point.

I just read the Texas Tribune articles from 2013 and 2015 and see your point. Thanks.

Better question is why did Trump give all that money to liberal democrats!!!


Are you saying our govt. isn’t corrupt? Especially the dems? The dems are as pure as the driven snow. They would never hold up a building with red tape, or find an insect that needed protection. No, not those dems.

Exactly, Ted’s Second Ballot double agent delegate campaign scheme is being rejected by the people and primarily with conservatives where his poll numbers are collapsing since Wisconsin.

His single senator filibuster, hated by both the Democrats and GOPe is proof of that. No one did more than he to stop it.

Cruz is a grandstanding gadfly who is a pariah in his own party. He was not the only senator that wanted to repeal Obamacare. If he truly wanted to do something significant, he should have used his interpersonal skills to devise a course of action and convince them to join him. The filibuster was just some more self-promotion and one of the few ways a first term, back-bencher senator could receive any public recognition. Just tilting at windmills.

“It means liberals who can fill stadiums make poor presidents.”

This is getting difficult.

It means:

1. Conservatives who fill stadiums can be elected president.

2. Liberals who fill stadiums can be elected president.

3. Conservative, liberals who cannot fill stadiums will not be elected president.

4. Filling stadiums is a prerequisite to being elected president.

5. Filling stadiums and capability to be a good president are not related.

She is conservative unlike trump

She probably had campaign debts

She and Cruz agree on conservative principles

Those are all good reasons.

What part of his New York speech do you disagree with?

The contraction of ‘you all’ is singular?

Born and raised in the South, and you are wrong.

Btw, the only time I heard ‘all y’all’ was in the Broadway musical, the Wiz. Doubt it was written by Southerners.

I have been wondering about that $500,000 transfer since I first saw it in the FEC filings months ago. Has there ever been an explanation provided?
