Ted Cruz just announced in an Iowa speech (broadcast live by C-Span at 7:10 CST Wednesday) ...
inviting Donald Trump to a one-on-one ("mano-amano" Ted Cruz quote) ...
debate this coming Saturday night ...
at Iowa Western University @ 8:00 PM-EST
moderated by Donald Trump's choice of either Rush Limbaugh, Mark Levin or Sean Hannity ...
or all three (if Donald Trump wishes).
Jim Robinson ... since this thread is based on a "live" news event, I'm unable to provide a proper internet link.

Have they found the mouthpiece yet?
Without Trumps limelight, Cruz and the other candidates will begin to fade. I predict that Cruz has peaked in the polls, he may get a 1 or 2% bump for a few days after the fox debate but after that he should be in freefall.
Yep, Levin is an establishment shill
Well, I’ve heard both New York minute and New York second refer to a very small instant of time. Haven’t heard the phrase “New York second” refer to a 2nd mortgage when flipping houses-—but that doesn’t mean that use doesn’t exist.

It seems like the perfect solution is for Cruz to debate Jeb one-on-one.
If I was Trump I would tell Cruz I will take you up on your challenge, and as you said my pick of time and place so....... come on over to tomorrow night rally for the wounded warriors.......we can do a debate there
You’re kidding right? Ted Cruz has been our senator since 2012 and we knew it the. . There is no conspiracy here. It hasn’t been hidden.
“RNC forbids 1 on 1 unsanctioned debates”
What about having them both on the same morning show. Would love to see them both on CSPAN’s Washington Journal with Brian Lamb moderating the caller’s questions.
Like a few previous knockabout victims, it takes a while. Once conciousness returns, the daze may last a few days. Reality sets in and then the "WTFlop" happened begins. Ask Jeb. He thought he could fix it too. Everybody still hoping for the derailment of Mr. Trump has been Rushing in to give CPR. Heck poor Ted may not even realize he's already been sworn in. Still haven't found the mouthpiece.
Beautiful. Sarah can moderate. ;-)
For god’s sake, to call Levin “establishment” is absurd.
Trump is a childish, petulant, liberal con-artist who has never given a day or dollar to conservative causes.
The next president will likely appoint 2 or more Supreme Court justices. With trump, you’ll get liberal Lawrence Tribe. With Hillary, you’ll get Eric Holder.
Any vote for Trump is consigning your children and grandchildren to a diminished, socialistic nation.
Why does Cruz still need to debate? Beck already swore him in.
Cruz is requesting the same thing that any no-name politician would love — to be seen opposite the front runner to absorb reflected glory and to gain credibility.
As a Cruz supporter, I like that.
Brilliant move on the part of Cruz. If Donald accepts, Cruz will mop up in a one on one debate.
If Trump declines he looks like a coward. Either way Cruz wins.
That won’t happen .. Trump knows the stakes .. and yes Levin is an establishment shill
Why would Cruz invite Trump to a debate in Council Bluffs??
Trump will be in Davenport, IA for an evening debate...
Council Bluffs is 5 hours away?!?!?
I must remind folks.
The master debater had six cracks at Trump.
How’d that go?
This is the real world Ted.
It’s over...
Trump told him only in Canada. He also has an event that night already scheduled.
Teddy pander bear is trying to get attention.
Pander bear? Like ethanol
There's a lot for Cruz and supporters to celebrate over.
