If Cruz is the constitutional genius why didn’t he recite the constitution for his answer?...

The minute he recites the constitution he’s lost.

Internal polls must show some decline for Cruz in Iowa.
He is starting to attack Trump.

Wrong. Cruz has always been for border security and he fought the 2013 “reform” bill, even offering a killer amendment that would have removed the one provision without which Senator Schumer (D-NY), the leader of the Gang of Eight, said there could “be no reform”.

Senator Lee and Senator Sessions both say Cruz was against the bill itself and any form of open borders or amnesty then. I guess you know better than they do, right?

Keep spinning.

So you’re staying home if Cruz is not the nominee?

Comparing the circumstances of his birth to Trumps was as dishonest as Cruz claiming he didnt know he was a Canadian citizen until 2014.

And that is one of the most absurd, dishonest statements Cruz has yet made. Are we to believe that the most brilliant lawyer who ever lived had no clue that his birth in Canada conferred Canadian citizenship upon him? He didn't even realize it until 2014?

I had a nephew born in Canada a few years back, to two US citizen parents, and both his parents and I knew that gave him dual citizenship, and none of us are lawyers.

Ted is making a big pile of absurd, implausible statements in the past few weeks. I wish Trump would hit him on his vote for TPA, and the flip/flop that followed after the anti-TPP sentiment became more apparent.

Cruz is all about “exposing” what needs to be exposed....like it or not. ...which includes Trumps history.

He’s not concerned with Trumps base....Cruz is running as a Constitutional Conservative....all know that Trumps running as a moderate Rino. The people will indeed decide who they want to support and vote for.....

He will completely disqualify himself among Trump's base who are largely moderates on social issues.

One can only hope...

I dunno what has happened to this place, but it has become somewhat ill.

If there are still more conservatives in the party than idiots, Cruz will win the nomination. If there are more sane people who vote than crazy people who vote in America, he will win the presidency. If he loses, we’ll know it’s time to lock and load. If a conservative can’t be president, then what does it matter trying to win the presidency?

Yeah, I sure Cruz wouldn't want the thousands of people that show up at Trump's rallies to vote for him....

Good luck trying to win the general election without pro-life, pro-family, pro Christian values voters.

He has a lot of support from this group.

He wouldn’t have the overall numbers he has now without them.

If he didn’t, Ted would not be attacking him from this angle.

...“What does it profit a man if he gains the whole world...

A misdirected comment in front of a gathering is one thing and easily forgiven.

However, using religion in a public forum to advance yourself, like Cruz, is specifically denounced in the Bible:

And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward. - Mathew 6:5

Along with his hypocrisy on corporate globalism and you have a sad package.
