Reagan took charge of the party by painting in bold colors and eschewing Nuance.
His “let them go their way” speech still inspires me when I’m feeling like conservative politics is a lost cause.
I’d love to see Ted offer a dramatic reading of that speech from the floor ... and wait to give attribution until he was done. My guess is that WaPoHuffPoNYT would all have tweets and articles on the wire before he finished, not realizing he was quoting P40. I can dream...
I just love this guy!
I’m ALL IN FOR CRUZ!!!
Cruz/Trump or Trump/Cruz I’m OK either way!
Brains/Bucks or Bucks/Brains —> You need both to win!
Go Trump!
Go Cruz!
Somebody please get the message to Cruz:
1) Try to reduce the nasality, at least a little bit. It’s not too bad except when speaking before a large crowd. Remember: the microphone makes it unnecessary to raise one’s voice, ever. (A lesson Sarah Palin, and most politicians, have never learned.) Watch videos of Ronald Reagan. He talked the same whether speaking in the Oval Office, or addressing 30,000 people. He knew, in either case, that the REAL audience was at home, ten feet from their TV sets, and they don’t need to be shouted at.
2) Get rid of the stammer!!! E.g.: “A-a-a-and...” and other words stammered at the beginning of sentences. It gets annoying. If you really ARE looking for a word, silence for a moment is BETTER.
Cruz is a Latino on his father’s side ( Cuban )
His mother is mainly Irish with some Italian thrown in
The only reason we are watching the debate is for Cruz and Trump. Hopefully they will team up and give Jeb a wedgie.
The idea that there are people “Leading”, “gaining”, “winning” (or “losing”) fifteen months before voters start to seriously think about it is ridiculous.
