Bump.
I’m getting tired of the repeated tropes, that Cruz isn’t to be trusted because his wife had at one time worked for Goldman Sachs (as if that by itself is bad, much less the fact it wasn’t TED who worked for them but his wife; guilt by association much?), because he has “zero accomplishments” and is “hated in the Senate”, both of which are arguably UNtrue (depends how one defines “accomplishments” because just limited to the Senate maybe, but that’s pretty understandable even if true because he’s “hated” there and that really ISNT a bad thing), or that his “biggest donors are trial lawyers”. (Haven’t seen one scintilla of evidence for that).
Does he have issues? Sure no ones perfect but he has only just as much (if not LESS) than “The Donald” and quite frankly he’s not as boorish.
I’m chalking all the anti-Cruz trolling to the strange (yet predictable) appearance of never-before seen screen names who pop up around major elections to voice their “concerns”.
And give it that much credit.
Looks like Old Retired Army Guy IS one of the moderate sleazebags Rush was talking about who are terrified of Cruz...note the time-honored use of the word "purist" to describe his supporters:
" There are actually some people who are conservative âpuristsâ that delude themselves into thinking someone like Ted Cruz can be elected to President in 2016. I am old enough to remember when that same kind of passion nominated Barry Goldwater thinking he could defeat Lyndon Johnson and sweep in a consevative wave. We all saw how that went and therefore got âThe Great Societyâ."
She still works for them...She's on a leave of absense...
or that his âbiggest donors are trial lawyersâ. (Havenât seen one scintilla of evidence for that).
How could you not??? You look the other way when those things are posted on FR???
Does he have issues? Sure no ones perfect but he has only just as much (if not LESS) than âThe Donaldâ and quite frankly heâs not as boorish.
Ahhh...So you're one of those offended by Trumps tone of voice...

You got any thing of substance why Cruz stands out???
