@marklevinshow And Carter won, right? Your point is out of context, sir. We're living in an entirely different world than we did in 1976

@marklevinshow But did Reagan give his word to support the nominee? Don't get me wrong, I was Cruz supporter all the way but #keepyourword
and as a result we ended up with Jimmy Carter...
And Ted Cruz is no Ronald Reagan..
Nor, I’d guess, had Reagan ***pledged*** to endorse Ford.
I’m sorry, but Reagan absolutely endorsed Ford in 76, and campaigned for him.
I have no earthly idea where Levin came up with this. Pretty poor memory, though.
Maybe Levin has some sort of mealy-mouthed way of saying that this is not an endorsement:

Interesting. One of my earliest political memories was Reagan taking to the podium at the 1968 GOP convention after it nominated Nixon (recall Reagan was a late entry in the race) calling on the delegates to make the vote unanimous. I remember thinking he looked and sounded very impressive.
The sour-grapes whine coalition is still whining.
Did Reagan sign a pledge to? Ted did.
So what?
Talk about apples and oranges.
Levin has found solace living in the past. He has relived events around the 1976 convention over and over and over, as if reliving it again will make it happen again.
Shut up levin.
I used to hold you in high regard. But then Ted Cruz came on the scene, and for this low life you changed. levin is almost as bad as Beck.
OTOH, maybe this is the way ML has always been and I’ve been fooled all these years.
Cruz lost; you bet on the wrong horse. Get over it.
I initially supported Cruz. Now I understand why he is so hated.
Freepers, please ignore these
He simply can't not do that and retain any credibility.
Ignore the ranting of Levin and go to the real news of the day/week!

For purposes of clarity and comparison to whatever remarks Sen. Cruz makes tonight, here is a link to Ronald Reagan’s remarks at the 1976 Republican convention:
http://www.nationalcenter.org/ReaganConvention1976.html
Many seem to lack the ability to read things, and I am shocked that Levin is one.
Let me ask you all a question, “Do you thunk Trump is stupid?”
No you don’t think he is, and neither do I.
Ted Cruz said it loudly that he would endorse Trump when he made the deal with trump to speak in the prime spot on Wednesday night.
Trump would never have agreed to allow Ted a prime time speaking spot if he did not promise to endorse him.
Unless, as I asked, do you think Trump is so stupid he would allow Cruz to destroy the convention by not endorsing him?
Trump is a genius at understanding people, not that I like him, but I will support and vote for him.
So, by hm being allowed the 2nd most prime spot at the convention means he will endorse Trump.
And over a million people have died because Jimmy Carter was President, and before the consequences of his bungling finally exhaust themselves, I expect the Jimmy Carter death toll may reach into the hundreds of millions.
Carter represents the Stupidest man to ever sit in the office prior to Barack Obama, who now holds that record.
Both Levin and Cruz will endorse Mr. Trump. There is NFW either will take any steps that help The Beast. There’s a long way to go in this election cycle and both are trying to push Mr. Trump away from Bernie supporters and closer to grass roots conservatives.
