"Cruz told Breitbart News that he doesn’t want to launch personal attacks against Hillary and Bill Clinton’s history with women during Mr. Clinton’s time in office from 1993 to 2001, but does believe that the democratic process will reveal the truth about their history."
This is exactly why Trump is better than Cruz. At the end of the day Cruz is a politician supported by Super Pacs and large donors. He plays from the same playbook as other politicians and doesn't get it. Meanwhile, Trump takes on the Clintons for the slime they are and throws them off their game so bad that Bill Clinton is left speechless and Hillary says she won't talk about him anymore. If Republicans want to WIN against the Clintons, Trump is the only chance. Cruz will act the same way McCain did about Jeremiah Wright when running against Obama. Stick to the issues and avoid personal attacks. I guess in a perfect world that would be great, but truth is if Trump had been up against Obama he would've hit the Jeremiah Wright stuff hard. From getting Obama to show his birth certificate, leaving Bill Clinton speechless, and wiping out the Jeb Bush campaign with two words "Low Energy" does anyone need anymore proof that Trump is the GOP's last best chance?

Apparently everyone forgot but we fought this battle back in the 90s. We lost. It sees a waste of time. I think there is a time to bring it up, perhaps in a debate if Hillary tries to make contradictory statements. But to harp on it just out of spite and meanness is taking time away from other important issues.

TRUMP is an anomaly. Candidates must raise campaign money to run for office. Unless we want to forfeit the American way of doing elections to the 1%, let’s get off this misguided path.
America is gun shy of politicians, no matter what they say, do orbpromise.
Not entirely true. Thanks to super pacs and the donor class the 1% run more than ever now. Whether you like his politics or not, Bernie Sanders is proof you can run a viable campaign using grass roots support and small donors. While he wasn’t caught saying anything different, do you honestly believe the Ted Cruz behind closed doors with New York City donors is the same Ted Cruz who is in Iowa right now? Of course not!
Not anymore! We live in the day and age of Bill Cosby. Hillary is the new Camille and sexual assault allegations mean a lot more now than they did in the 90’s. There were no SJW’s in the 90’s and there are now. The SJW’s have no affinity or memory of the Clinton years. To them, Bill Clinton is just another Dirty Old White Man. They will take him down!
Agree totally.
Rush spent 8 years educating the masses about these things - but this new generation of voters knows nothing of it.
To prevent duplication, please do not alter the published headline, thx.
You don't understand what Trump has done! Hillary tried to pull her usual crap on him with her "YOU'RE A SEXIST" remark, and he completely shut her down !
Nobody but Trump can beat her in a debate, because she plays bey HER rules and Trump knows how to counter that. Nobody else knows/understand that!
It's absolutely USELESS to debate her as one would anyone else. Do that and you immediately lose!
IMHO this is a weakness of Cruz. This is what McQueeg and Romney did with their opponents and we see how well that worked out for them.
Right now, Trump is the man for the time.
After him, we'll talk about what's what.
And that is why the politicians say one thing before election, and then go back to serving the donor class after election is over. It is a rotten and corrupt system. Good news is people have finally recognized the scam.
First the republicans said wait till we win the House.
They did in 2010. Nothing changed. Obamacare was not defunded.
Then the republicans said we have only 1/2 of congress.. Wait until we win senate. They did in 2014. Again nothing changed. Planned Parenthood fully funded. Obamacare fully funded. Wall never gets built.
Now the republicans are saying, wait till we win the white house in 2016. Guess what, fool me once, you are to blame. Fool me twice, I am to blame. Fool me three times, then I must be really stupid.
I am now fully aware of the scam run by career politicians who are controlled by the rich donor class.
That is why I support Trump in 2016. He has no rich donors controlling him.
McCain did not want to even use Obama's middle name. He failed to go after Obama's connections to Frank Marshall Davis, Ayers, Rev Wright, Farakhan, Rezo, and communist front groups in Chicago. Romney played the gentleman in his attacks on Obama.
We either fight to win or go home. The GOP is dying and another loss will kill it. They are not an opposition party. The Dems play hardball. Harry Reid had no problem in using the nuclear option to get Obama's nominees approved. The Dems used IRS to go after the Tea Party. Obamacare was passed thru bribes and legislative tricks.
Read the Starr Report and see what kind of behavior went on in the WH. Bill Clinton was only the second President ever to be impeached. One-third of the voters today have no idea about these scandals.
Elections are not won on issues today. We have entered the era of tribal politics and our tribe is getting smaller and smaller.
This doesn’t matter? http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3380610/posts
WRONG.
In the 1990s the MSM (ABC CBS NBC and CNN) controlled the narrative.
Now ALL women who say they are raped are to believed by the women victims (many of them leftist) groups.
Hillary enabling disqualifies her from their support.
It’s the kick in the balls move against the Clintons that Trump is delivering.
The man tanked Jindal, Perry, Macy’s! He’s a genius.
How about his history of corruption — and taking bribes from foreigners such as James Riady and the Red Chinese?
Let’s not forget about that.
Bill Clinton’s sex life is not really a winning issue for Republicans. It tends to make Hillary look like a victim. And bringing it up in a context where it’s supposed to harm her is perceived by many swing voters as vindictive and pointless.
I suppose it has some currency in terms of trusting the Clintons back into the WH but then it reminds millions of women voters of the reason they always voted for Bill Clinton.
It’s a waste of time to pound away at this issue. Hillary Clinton’s poor handling of her portfolio is the better issue. It’s directly related to her credibility as president and it is fair comment all the way.
Why hack down the back yard tree when the house is being threatened by rising waters in the front yard?
PING
CRUZ,TRUMP vs the Clintons
Who throws the best punch?
Trump was not President of the US or Governor of Arkansas when he was engaging in these activities. Reagan was divorced.
But this really isn't the issue. Hillary is accusing Trump of being a sexist. She rails against the GOP's War on Women. Yet, she is married to and enabled a serial abuser of women.
Should the Clinton Foundation be out of bounds? Should Bill Clinton's association with the pedophile, Jeffery Epstein, be out of bounds?
Bill Clinton's record of misogyny and brutality against women:
Juanita Broaddrick (AR)- rape
Eileen Wellstone (Oxford) - rape
Elizabeth Ward Gracen - rape - quid pro quo, post incident intimidation
Regina Hopper Blakely - “forced himself on her, biting, bruising herâ€ÂÂ
Kathleen Willey (WH) - sexual assault, intimidation, threats
Sandra Allen James (DC) - sexual assault
22 Year Old 1972 (Yale) - sexual assault
Kathy Bradshaw (AK) - sexual assault
Cristy Zercher - unwelcome sexual advance, intimidation
Paula Jones (AR) - unwelcome sexual advance, exposure, bordering on sexual assault
Carolyn Moffet -unwelcome sexual advance, exposure, bordering on sexual assault
1974 student at University of Arkansas - unwelcome physical contact
1978-1980 - seven complaints per Arkansas state troopers
Monica Lewinsky - quid pro quo, post incident character assault
Gennifer Flowers - quid pro quo, post incident character assault
Dolly Kyle Browning - post incident character assault
Sally Perdue - post incident threats
Betty Dalton - rebuffed his advances while married to one of his supporters
