EXACTLY SO; sadly.

[catfish1957]

Rubio didn’t win 76% of Fl vote this year. Why do you keep perpetuating misinformation?

[UCANSEE2]

I’ll bet you didn’t know she picked that handle as an abbreviation of her full name, libbylunatic.

If that's true, then you should give her credit for being honest. It's a rare trait.

[nopardons]

WHAT ?

I didn't even mention Rubio...what the bleeding Hell are YOU talking about?

[DoughtyOne]

That father thing is strange. I’ve not addressed it, but it is out there IMO.

Beck, what a clown. It’s embarrassing to everyone but Beck and Cruz.

As for Cruz being arrogant or like Obama, I just think Ted is a small fish trying to act like a big one.

He has the gravitas of a 98 pound high school freshman.

[Windflier]

“Ted knows he can’t get to 1237. It’s the end. He simply refuses to let Trump have what he worked hard for and earned.”

Ted’s not mathematically eliminated just yet, so I can understand him staying in for now. I suppose he owes it to his supporters to stay and fight until no possibility of him securing the nomination remains.

Once the door finally shuts on that, he needs to graciously concede to reality and bow out. If he doesn’t, he’s going to open the door to the possible destruction of the Republicans as a national party.

He’ll undoubtedly be opening the door to President Hillary Clinton, and the final collapse of our beloved country.

[PA Engineer]

He did the same thing to us Texans that Obama did to the people of Illinois.

I was a financial supporter in the beginning. Healthy donations and then I started getting nonstop Romney style solicitations. Worse, I started getting PAC and Senatorial solicitations. That is when I stopped and started taking a good hard look at him. I was bothered by his inability to respect my private email and bank account. If he couldn't be loyal to me, how was he going to be loyal to the United States and the Constitution?

There was a narrative that sold him. When I started digging the facade fell apart very quickly. There was the TPA and Corker Bill and much more. It was like the Uniparty had there fall back guy to support. History is proving that correct.

This sums up why I have serious issues with Cruz:

Never held a private sector job, graduated from Harvard, constitutional scholar, lawyer, junior senator, foreign born, hides his real name, hid his nationality during his senate run, repeatedly failed to vote as senator, and immediately began seeking the office of president once elected.

OBAMA PART DEUX

Many voted for him and others became "true believers." I understand the blind emotional ties. Not going to change them. I was not emotionally tied to him. I thought he would be good for the country and then I realized he was nothing more than a carpet bagger for the elite.

[Windflier]

“I did notice that Kasich promised to consider a democrat for his veep choice today.”

What the hell?

That moron needs to have his Republican party card revoked.

[catfish1957]

This is exactly what you said in post No. 75 of this thread.....

"Cruz did THE worst, in any primary season, in his own state, where 56% of the votes were NOT CRUZ"

Rubio id not win 76% of his state. When you make such bold statments like that, at least make sure they are accurate.

[DoughtyOne]

Do you think he can keep Trump from earning 105 more delegates? That’s what it all boils down to, and he can’t.

So yes, numerically Ted could hold Trump to 104 more delegates and attain 1237 for himself. That will never happen.

Ted needs to man up and be honest about his chances.

Drop out, congratulate Trump, and try again another time.

Conservatives are watching him destroy himself right now, and it isn’t pretty.

[PA Engineer]

I didn't even mention Rubio...what the bleeding Hell are YOU talking about?

He is one of our consistent ops here. He doesn't understand this was a foreseeable black swan event. This is our last chance for a "cold" revolution. He will be on the opposite side of a "hot" one.

[UCANSEE2]

If they dare to ignore the clearly expressed will of the people in this election,

I think both parties have dared to ignore the clearly expressed will of the people in this election many times before, it's just that they weren't so blatant about it.

[catfish1957]

id = did

[catfish1957]

He will be on the opposite side of a "hot" one.

is that a threat?

[Windflier]

“This whole primary season has been a race between Trump and the Not Trumps, and the Not Trumps have been winning.”

How many times does it have to be explained to you that the Not Cruz vote is even larger?

May I also remind you that Not Trump isn’t going to “win” a damn thing in our electoral system? You can only vote FOR someone. There is no such thing as voting against anyone.

You want Ted to win, then get off the forum and start pounding the pavement for him.

[nopardons]

Yes, just like Obama. The similarities between those two are amazing.

That Cruz is joined at the hip with Crazy Glenn and hasn't renounced the insane things he has done with him, speaks volumes! Then throw in his pick of DIRTY TRICKS Roe and quite a few other things and it's bewildering that Ted is even still in it. But then, so is KaSICKO; he of THE YOUNG TURKS S&M CLUB and murders. *shrugs*

[nopardons]

He doesn’t care; it’s ALL ABOUT HIM, ALL OF THE TIME, and the hell with everyone else.

[Windflier]

Still too big of a commitment for me to handle. Maybe after I retire some day. I’ve only had a bit of extra freeping time lately, due to our jobs being rained out.

[Windflier]

“He’s making money and keeping it for another run at being governor, probably.”

The guy’s a complete weasel. I can’t believe anyone’s foolish enough to throw their vote away on him.

[nopardons]

Oh picker of nits...who cares? LOL

Cruz is a LOSER, a LIAR, and will NEVER be president...end of story!
