An optimistic headline for Cruz. Probably the last unfortunately.

And covered in slime to boot - he's toast and can now become a bitter clinger trying for a contested/brokered convention that will likely seat Hillary.

Ted Cruz is a porn distributor that provides porn to children.
Since Teds Pac sent out nude photos of Trumps wife out willy nilly everywhere in Utah where underage teenage boys and younger could have seen them isnt that providing porn to children?I have some new slogans for Rafael Cruz.

I'm confused as to how this closed the gap.

Wishful thinking for the media/anti_Trump crowd...

I think so too, Cruz went too far in vote grabbing when he tried to politicize the Brussells bombing for himself.

He is saying certain things at the wrong time only to get attention. He is the loose lips sink ships person of the year winner. He does not care but to get behind that desk in the Whitehouse, with all those puppet strings going up into the ceiling where the special interest groups hide. His campaign donors.

That interview with BOR last night was hilarious, after Cruz was done ordering with his list i was truly expecting Bill to respond with, “you want fries with that too?”.

Cruz wore thin fast. His habit of speaking in 2-3 sec sound bursts became very annoying and a clear liability.

Must be because he ad libs and thinks before he speaks...

Pretty funny. The gap increased, as Ted closes the gap.

Trump is ballistic over Cruz/s lowlife ad WRT Donald/s wife. Even though Heidi Cruz can/t compete w/ Melania in the glamour and beauty department, I'd say Donald has plenty on Cruz....maybe this?

==============================================

There are several elements to what appears to be the globalist plot as it relates to the terror/refugee bombings. That the refugee crisis is being exploited to expand Islam, undermine Western culture, national sovereignty, and even nationhood itself is now beyond dispute.

Some of the top globalists who were lying low are openly bragging about it....like Heidi's employer Goldman Sachs who even takes a slap at Donald Trump.

“I will ask the governments to cooperate, to recognize that sovereignty is an illusion — that sovereignty is an absolute illusion that has to be put behind us,” declared former Goldman Sachs chairman Peter Sutherland, an ex-member of the Bilderberg Steering Committee who currently “serves” as the UN special representative of the secretary-general for international migration.

He continues: “The days of hiding behind borders and fences are long gone. We have to work together and cooperate together to make a better world. And that means taking on some of the old shibboleths, taking on some of the old historic memories and images of our own country and recognizing that we’re part of humankind.”

NOTE Heidi represented G/S in the push to impose the North America Union--Mexico to Canada--- on our nation.

With Mitt and now Jeb behind Cruz, America can now feel more confident that the convention will produce the “right” candidate that our betters have chosen. (again)

Trump is learning he can’t just show up and inherit a position.

Why not, works for Hillary...........

This needs to go out everywhere.Ted Cruz is a globalist in lying disguise..along with his wife. He is unfit to be President.

Exactly. 59% is well above the 54% threshold of future delegates he needs to win.

That being said, Trump has a bad habit of saying stupid stuff for no good reason. Questioning Romney’s Mormon faith may not only have hurt him in the Utah Primary, but may also lose him Utah in the GE.

When Americans find out the establishment.....which they despise......is kissing up to the lunatic Cruz...just watch out.

This is the real killer for Cruz. He should've told his new friends not to endorse him publicly, just give him the money!

All the talk about Priesthood rising and the anointed one by Beck and Cruz
helped Cruz get above 50% in Utah, but it scared the rest of the country.
It will be downhill hill for Cruz the rest of the way.

Internet voting ran by a Soros company.

The vote looks more like cult behavior than conservatism.

Actually Mormons are not conservative at all. Name one conservative Mormon politician.

Pray America wakes

Mike Lee is a pretty familiar name in the USA. Surprised at your question. It doesn’t convey much familiarity with what goes on in this country.

It’s UTAH. Who gives a F*** about Utah?

You're going to need Utah in the general election, just like you're going to need Cruz's supporters. Trump loses to Hillary without all of us standing together.
