You guys may bash me over the head, but I’m going to say it anyway... When Obama got elected, I said we would never have another White president again, and the next president would likely be President Gonzalez— and I was almost right!!! Just got the name wrong. Commence the flogging.

Go Ted Cruz Go. If you run you have my vote. IMHO you are the best man for the job, Bar none!!!

Now if he will run and pick some gal from Alaska, that would be the icing on the cake.

Bravo!

Thank you Texas for Sen. Ted Cruz!

[The Cajun]

Cruz finished in first place in the annual conference's presidential straw poll at 30.33%. Dr. Ben Carson, a Fox News commentator and conservative activist, finished in second with 29.38%

Can't wait for the MSM and supposedly conservative pundits to try and stifle this, ignore this or tell us how unimportant it is.

In the straw poll, 633 ballots were cast, which was attended by more than 1,500 people.

This is great news.

[TBP]

That’s OK — the RINOs will just have to trash him harder so when he’s nominated, he’s in a weakened position.

[Nifster]

Good I stand with Ted

[SoConPubbie]

Ted Cruz Ping!

If you want on/off this ping list, please let me know.

Please beware, this is a high-volume ping list!

Note to self. Republican Leadership Conference knows what the hell's going on.

Expect the media to ignore this poll. I'm surprised that CNN published this.

The comments on the article are irritating, and predictiable. “Cruz is dumb,” “I hope the GOP runs this guy because he’s so stupid,” etc. I hope Cruz runs and shuts them up, it reminds me of the Palin treatment, the only difference is, that she didn’t run and didn’t get to prove the left wrong. Please don’t back down Ted!

We will never, EVER, hear the words “President Elect Ben Carson” in 2016. It will NEVER happen. People need to stop this nonsense now. There is NOTHING wrong with Ted Cruz, and you’re hearing this from a Palin backer.

NO MORE CONSERVACIDE VOTERS! No more vote splitting!

Stop this before Chris Christie or Jeb Bush are the nominees. No more Santuckabee nonsense. No more Herman Cain or Ben Carson alternate reality pipe dreams. ENOUGH! Stop this NOW, before it happens.

Yay, no fake polls piled on by Paulites
