Anybody Watch the Ted Cruz - "Sham" O'Rourke Debate?

Posted on 10/16/2018 7:27:09 PM PDT by Saveourcountry

I could barely pay attention to what the commie was talking about with all of his fake Obama like gestures and Obama like speech pattern.

Cruz mopped the floor with him. He is not ready to be a senator from a big state. He should move to a small liberal state. It was sad.

“In shifholesville (Illinois) so I couldn’t watch (we had a governor debate). Did Ted bring up how Robert ran from the cops when he got his DUI?”


No, but he didn’t have to. All Ted had to do was talk about Sham’s voting record, and that finished him with most Texas voters. Fortunately Sham has a record that is black and white that we can look at.

“Those debate moderators were pretty sucky, I thought.”

You are being kind. Not only did the guy try to argue with Cruz (he saw Sham needed help) - the questions were asinine. If I were Cruz I would have called him a “dumb*ss a couple of times. Cruz showed tremendous restraint.”

My daughter hates Ted Cruz, but she isn’t stupid enough to vote against her own best interests. Texans aren’t as stupid as (many think) the accents suggest.

“Reading debate review on Vox and they say Cruz supported increasing H1B?”

What is HIB? I don’t remember that coming up.

“I missed it, but I’ve heard him speak before and also noted that he comes off like an Obama wannabe. He seems to mimic Obama’s speaking style.”

There was something robotic about it. It was very distracting, almost like I was at Disneyland watching an animatronic figure.

Hard to believe but I'll take your word for it. No Offense but California would not even enter my mind if it were me. California is a beautiful state but liberals have made it a hell hole for ordinary people.

Yeah, but put Cruz in a skateboard if you want to see Republican failure. /s

He beat the lieutenant gov. by coming out of nowhere. As far as a lot of Texans don't like him....we have a lot of democrats and rinos in Texas just like every other state. He will destroy Little "Beto the Commie"!!!! Ted Cruz is well thought of in Texas!!!

What’s this about a six second delay by Cruz in answering a simple question about some non-political aspect of his life? Huffpost is all excited about this “blunder.” Is it overblown?

Although I'm in Connecticut, I'm such a political junkie, I tuned into the live Beto / Ted Cruz debate last night on C-SPAN. I really hadn't heard Beto speak much... I was curious how he would do in this debate vs. Debate Champion Ted Cruz.

Your comments are SO spot on, Saveourcountry! My first thoughts: Beto was obviously trying very hard to mimic Obama. He was full of non-answers and dodged all of Cruz' truthful charges. Too bad there was no mention of Beto's hit-and-run DUI from years ago.

Beto is yet another commie trying to appear as a middle of the road democRAT, channeling his inner Kennedy and Obama. (Well, he's got the Kennedy thing going with the drunken hit-and-run accident). He's typical of the young-ish politicians we are stuck with here in The People's Republik of Connecticut. I kept thinking: WHAT is a politician like that doing in Texas??

And yes, Ted Cruz was fabulous! He absolutely wiped the floor with leftist "hero" Beto, who I thought looked rather nervous matched up one-on-one with Cruz.

My only question: How did Robert Francis O'Rourke end up with a name like "Beto"?

Oh geez. I watched the debate. It was a nothing-burger, IMO.

Ted Cruz has argued cases before the Supreme Court.

Beto ran from the law.

I head that his dad gave him that nickname so that if he went into politics, he would hit it off well with the hispanics in Texas.

According to the fake news “media”, Burrito is going to be America’s first fake Mexican John F. Kennedy.

Yup. Well, Beto's definitely got the Kennedy thing going, although I'd say he's more like TED Kennedy than JOHN Kennedy...

Yes, the woman debate moderator actually seemed to be more 'fair and balanced'.

If the same guy that did Pocahontas’s DNA I’m sure they will find Hispanic in him.

Great story and that really IS how a lot of family nick names originated.
