I detest articles like this. They imply that the GOP is some hidden group in the background that can control all events. This is the conspiracy theory of politics, and it's one that is usually associated with libtards and 99 percenter OWS idiots.

We are going ot have a primary process. Yes, there is room for mischief making, but still there really is no doubt that Romney won by beating his opponents in the long haul, primary after primary.

Cruz can win hte GOP primary if a majority of GOP primary voters favor him, it's as simple as that. No amount of Establishment entitlement can change that outcome, if the majority of GOP primary voters insist on it.

There is no conspiracy just a bunch of Wall Street and K Street and US Chamber of Crony Socialism $$$$ obsessive greedheads who think that by spending enough money they can buy nominations. In the 2012 primary, in NW Illinois, you could not turn on the radio without being assaulted by wall-to-wall Myth Romney lies in ad form. His campaign bought sooooo many spots that there was little or no time for the other candidates.

Meanwhile the whores at RNC have changed convention rules to strengthen the RNC whores and their favored spineless windtunnel candidates at the expense of the public.

What Romney won in 2012 was the Wall Street/K Street $$$$ primary. If that process is repeated, then the only defense is defeating the GOP-E annointed candidate. I won't ever vote for an Establishment whore again.

Hucklberry’s sole purpose in running is to prevent a Conservative from upsetting the RINO cart. He doesn’t want to win, he’s just following orders: Keep the Conservative base split and keep Agenda 21 going.

Cruz does not need permission, he will just kick the door down, and charge in guns ablazing.

The GOP-E has launched it's "last" national campaign loser candidate ... Mitt Romney.

The party will literally disappear (go extinct) in 2016 in Ted Cruz isn't the nominee.

Period.

Will GOP establishment even allow Cruz to run? Well the GOP Establishment in Texas tried to stop him from being elected Senator, but he defeated an entrenched, well-funded, sitting Lt. Governor and defeated him very handily. Actually, he beat him like a drum. Ted Cruz is not ordinary politician. He’s a brilliant statesman and one helluva campaigner.

He has to have a Herman Cain type problem for them to do a “Herman Cain” on him....

Herman Cain was a womanizing whore monger. If he was innocent of the accusations made against him, he would have bowed up and fought like hell and said: “I want to face my accusers”. But, no, he dropped out of the race, kept the campaign cash he raised, and ran whining and hid behind his wife’s skirt and God. The very mention of his name makes me want to puke.
