Dear Readers,
I had the opportunity to listen to Ted Cruz yesterday. As a Christian voter and lifelong Upstate New Yorker I value the things he had to say. He was a breath of fresh air to our area! A welcome contrast to the typical pompous, political windbags like, Gov. Cuomo, Kirsten Gillibrand, Chuck Schumer, Paul Tonko- and the Times Union Newspaper- (which absolutely stumps for all of them on a regular basis).
I love New York… I was born and raised here. All my relatives are from here, and post active-duty military service, my husband and I returned to raise our children here. While he was serving, we lived all over the country. Of all the places we lived, it was hard to compare to the beauty of the Catskills and Adirondacks. We have so many stunning rivers, lakes, and countless choices of hiking, swimming and skiing…
Yet, so many wonderful, hardworking New York natives have fled our state. Why? Because of corrupt, bullying dictator politics, over regulation, oppressive taxes, and zero job growth! So it was refreshing to have a level headed candidate, who actually respects the Constitution, come and address voters in our area. People in upstate are hurting economically and the power hungry Albany machine has done nothing to help.
Ted Cruz is morally grounded and reveres God. One of the things that is of utmost importance to the Christian voter is that he values protecting innocent life. Again, unlike New York blowhards-(Gov. Cuomo, Kirsten Gillibrand, Chuck Schumer, and Paul Tonko) Ted Cruz is opposed to abortion. He actually takes to heart and respects that God is the creator of life…all life!
While our own ‘Dictator in Chief’ (Andrew Cuomo) wastes his time, and our money, making ridiculous travel bans to Mississippi and North Carolina, and has repeatedly told fellow conservative New Yorkers we aren’t welcome here…. Ted Cruz focuses on smaller Government, tax alleviation, and job creation- something conservatives have been longing to hear from a serious candidate. Conservatives understand that in order to see any economy thrive we need to stop over-regulation and decrease the taxes.
After 8 years of Obama and his calamitous regime, we need new, fresh leadership. Hillary Clinton doesn’t honor life. She is pro third trimester abortion up until the time of birth. She also abandoned our servicemen in Benghazi. Bernie Sanders supports third trimester abortion as well, and wants to increase our taxes even more…
How a person values other people’s lives absolutely determines how they will govern in office. Why? Because how they regard the worth of another human life, determines where their moral compass is and how they will carry out everything they do in political office…If a leader doesn’t value life, they will also disregard and be callous to other matters of governing and legislating that require principle and virtue.
We need a President of the United States that truly honors and reveres life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. I believe Ted Cruz may be that person.

Perhaps you didn’t listen to the American people?
They have 20-20 vision on false ‘sex scandals,’ and quickly cane to the conclusion that the false scandal proves that Cruz is on target.
The big Cruz - Trump switch in the national polling has to be the direct result of that revelation.
.
.
The present evidence says that Cruz has a reasonable chance of at least a plurality in NY.

2DV did not say that; he has more class than that.
.
“Cruz omits the odor of a barnyard.”
Good thing. I would want to omit the odor of a barnyard too. Some barnyards smell really bad.

Any chance Cruz could get anyone in a general election who does not identify themselves in their first sentence as such?
I was already corrected.
Cruz, as Rush has said is the only true, tested, and consistent conservative in the race and is the legitimate heir to the Reagan mantle.
Time for his rival conman to suspend his campaign and end this Trumpoonery-Buffoonery and spare the nation of a crushing defeat to either Bernie or Hillary.
I care only that Cruz blamed Trump for it, when all the evidence points to Rubio not Trump.
As far as the scandal itself, I hope for the sake of Cruz family it’s not true. And if it is true, I hope hard evidence comes out.
Cruz had a sex scandal?
I guess there was some unsubstantiated stuff in one of those grocery store checkout aisle tabloids, but then fell entirely off the radar cuz no one could find a there there.
If he did win a plurality in NY, the Trump chumps’ heads would explode.
.
Pataki thinks he’s on a roll.

Try logic this time.
Evidence of a negative is a lack of evidence of a positive.
There is no evidence of any event at all.
