So you come here in 2015 (noob? Old but making a statement? Infiltrator?)....give yourself the handle Texas Cruzin with the tagline (he always hits back), then trash him....am I missing something?( change of heart? Sarcasm I don't get? Wouldn't be the first time).
Just curious.
Bottom line, Ted is an all talk no action politician. He’s good at politicking and prolific lying.
Cruz has about 1/5th of the vote. So what. Worse then trump. And lower delegates to the point, Cruz isn’t even at the half way point of needed delegates.
Most polls have Trump dominating conservative and evangelical voters, including "very conservative." Throughout the South, in fact, Trump dominated every demographic, including "very conservative" and Evangelical voters. In some polls, Cruz takes "very conservative," but usually only by a few points.
Please elaborate.
What? Cruz promised to get rid of obamacare during his 2012 senate campaign. Somehow it’s still here.
Basic civics.
He can’t do it alone. A Senator needs the votes of others to do it. Although the better promise to make would be you would work to get rid of it.
Which brings up a question. If he tried and failed, and every other GOP running has made the same promise, were is the evidence Trump would be successful besides just his word? He already has stated he liked the mandate.
Why would Goldman Sachs loan the Cruz’s a million dollars at less than market APR? Why did the Cruz’s need that kind of money and if it was legitimate, why did Ted forget to include it on his financial disclosures?
Seems to me that if these allegations are true, Cruz would have a hard time accusing Hillary of Wall Street cronyism.
<<< Bravo, and where are Ted’s many thousands showing up to fill an arena like Trump? >>>
Some are attracted to the cult of personality, many others are not.
Then he should say he’s going to get rid of obamacare. He should say try to get rid of obamacare. Trump is being smart. He didn’t no key say get rid of obamacare because the Supreme Court ruled for it. Trumps going to make it better.
The author is correct. If Cruz were a conservative, he wouldn’t respond to legitimate questions re his Consular File with an idiotic video clip. A conservative treats a genuine and sincere request for legitimate info with respect. Cruz went full Alinsky.
“Obama also “filled up stadiums” - but what does that really mean?”
He won two elections, that is what it means.
It must be really sad to be supporting Trump and be having nothing better than Birtherism to yak about, and in year 8 of Obozo no less. Ted must be a pretty solid candidate if this mess of pottage is the best you guys can come up with.
Welcome to FR.
I wouldn’t call what you presented here a vanity. No, I’d say it’s more of an exposé...great job recapping the main points that argue against a Ted Cruz nomination.
High on the list of curiosities you bring up is that donation to Carly Fiorina’s campaign. It is highly suspect and you are right to ask the question: why did Ted Cruz give money to a competitor last July, at a time when the candidates were all fighting hard against each other to get noticed and win the nomination? Hmm?
Well done. BTW, the Cruzaderos got in quick didn’t they.
ThankYou.
The Governor of Maine is an American citizen. He had two daughters born in Canada. Both had to be naturalized in order to become American citizens. Why and how was the process different for Cruz? Where is your proof?
Cruz ran against the establishment candidate and longtime Texas Lieutenant Gov. David Dewhurst. Dewhurst was supported by such establishment forces as the Bush family, and other GOP stalwarts. He ran a grass roots, tea party campaign, and won, based on messages and now kept promises.
You foolish and misguided Cruzaders make Republicans look like snake handlers.
Thankfully, the primary vote of the people still means something and this Cruz orchestration of the delegate transplanting scheme looks to be much less about brilliant ground gaming and much more about outright corruption. It is all being exposed big time, and frowned upon.
Only Beckers could define a “conservative” as— having relations with Goldman Sachs, the Council on Foreign Relations, being an architect for a CFR paper on establishing a North American “Community”, reportedly an $800,000.00 salary from GS, while you yourself vote for TPA against the express abhorrence of Jeff Sessions, whose name you ride for garnering your bona fides, only to further the globalist North American Union agenda.
Never mind the Corker Bill, and your express recommendation for a pathway to legalization for millions of South American & Mexican invaders (just so long as they are not troubled by law enforcement, FBI, ICE or Homeland Security).
Throw in one 21 hour filibuster for the rubes, a Bible in one hand, flag in the other and the Constitution between your teeth, and the Becker crowd are enamored for life, never noticing they’re are being ridden like a rented mule to gain higher office, in your first senate term.
Remember that! We are.
TRUMP 2016
Do you know what a “poison pill” is in the legislative process?
