Remember what kind of a sweet man Cruz was to Trump in the beginning. Everyone could trust Cruz because he was such a stand up guy. What a prince.

Now we have the son of Dracula in place of Cruz. He is a Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hide combo.

We see the real Cruz now from the well mannered man he was. Basically he was always a total hyena and snake in the grass.

This article is the saddest, most pathetic piece of drivel I’ve read in a long time. I’m surprised it’s not from Huffpo or Politico, though.

weird , because I ma in st Johns too and there is not one person saying they would not voter for Trump, hell you want to look at the exit polls for our county.

There has been some however saying that they would never vote for anyone , but Trump now.

So where in town are you, because here where I ma it is very different.?

You state this on your profile to.

I’m a Spanish legal translator by profession and live in St Augustine, Florida. The town is full of liberal nutcases, grannies for peace, etc., and therefore I am forced to seek sympathetic conservative souls in cyberspace.

That is not true either . The only place where any liberals live are maybe the King street, Lincolnville area and you can look at how our county has voted I the last 3 Pres elections and look at our county commissioners who are all republican.

Maybe because he was expressing his personal opinion? Should he talk about that in third person?

How this con man (Trump University) and snake oil salesman (Trump TajMahal Casino; Trump Shuttle; Trump Steaks) has become the so-called Republican frontrunner will be grist for social scientists for years to come. Trumpkins are really chumps for Trump. They bent themselves into a pretzel to defend his filthy tweeting of a pic of Cruz’s wife (who by the way hasn’t taken a seven figure paycheck for seductively posing nude in a men’s magazine inviting them to leer at her and masturbate their sexual fantasies) beside Melania, but now when Trump regrets this and publicly calls it a mistake, his obeisant followers are left stranded on the shores of moral indecency.

Hopefully, the results from Wisconsin will be one more log into this idiot’s political funeral pyre.

“Who has he ever hired or fired -ZERO- What business has he ever built or helped build? -ZERO- What payroll has he ever had to make? -ZERO- What private or governmental management or administrative management experience does he have? -ZERO-”

Same as Obama — it worked for him. Cruz thinks it will work for him too...but I hope Republican voters will wise up before it’s too late.

“FR is a microcosm of what America has become and it’s kind of ugly at times.”

The really scary thing is that we’re on the upper end of the American bell curve.

I’m not sure why people on either side of this debate get angry at Ted. GOPe blame him for “Trump” because they aligned with each other last summer. And now some Trumpers get angry with him for competing for the nomination.

This whole race is just like the TV show Survivor. You work with an alliance until you reach the end where there are only two left. At that point you have to part ways. Nothing wrong with that. Only one can win.

Since his Second Ammendment defense is meaningless lawyer stuff to you, go ahead and turn in your guns.

I leave reding Ted’s briefs to his hookers and campaign help.

Other than that, Ted is a fraud.

Arguments about the general election at this point in time serve only one purpose: to try to mitigate your rival’s chances in the eyes of the beholders.

To the extent that the average person is interested in the primary races, they are in it for the scandals and the gossip and the circus fun. It’s food for chat. They won’t become interested in the general election until after the conventions, when talk television gets even more boringly repetitious (to us) than it is now. Some will call up their best friend the night before the election to ask who they should vote for.

So clear the air for something more substantive. If polls are manipulated, which they are, at this stage they are manipulated and manipulative to the point of being meaningless. It’s like trying to predict the weather on election day seven months in advance.
