You're not kidding.
Wishful think on Cruz. Trump support is not going away.
Erica must live under a rock.
It appears based upon some articles that Trump has got a ground game going and will
have some influence in the caucuses. Who knows but with his perceived national attention,
etc. Trump may have a chance at some of the caucus vote. It take commitment to spend a
couple hours on caucus night, listening to candidate supporters hailing the candidate
and then finally making your selections.
We'll see in about two months.
A Democrat will vote for Trump, but they are not going to vote for Cruz, who they consider far right.
My problem with Cruz is he voted for TPA and the Corker bill. He also said means testing Social Security was not off the table on a Hannity show. He also didn’t raise a fuss on the last thief of the Social Security trust fund to pay for Obama’s programs. His biggest donor is a hedge fund guy. I do not trust Cruz and never will. He wrote an article with Paul Ryan about how good the secret trade deal will be. I’m not falling for it anymore with the professional politicians.
One would be tempted to think you’d sent out a troll roll call, 2DV.
Must be Austin moonbats.
And they are almost half the electorate!
No, the problem is we have a party that will nominate criminals and traitors like Obama and Hillary. Trump is the solution.
Iowa is a silly beauty contest, not a primary. It's irrelevant. Ask Huckabee and Santorum. Trump may or may not win it, but he will sweep the actual primaries.
It’s actually too easy.
The Donald has amply demonstrated that his appeal is far broader than just to members of a caucus or the primary voters of relatively small states. It cuts across and goes way beyond party lines, tapping into something that has been simmering, no, seething for a long time - the elites do not listen to the people who make up the electorate.
Trying to brew up a feud between The Donald and Ted Cruz is an exercise in futility - first, because the contrasts and differences are not all that great, and secondly, because the only intent of such a feud would be to damage BOTH candidates in ways only the opposition party could take advantage of.
The objective, now and past Election Day, November 8, 2016, is to assure that Herself shall NOT succeed to office upon the departure of the Current Occupant. Not that it is formally announced, but the outlines of a likely path to the White House are beginning to emerge, and like the Immortals of “The Highlander” fame, there can be only one. There can be, however, some very good lieutenants put in place subsequent to the Republican National Convention, essentially a “Shadow Cabinet”, which would sweep in and take command immediately on Inauguration Day.
Do not do the “opposition research” for the competition.
Like this pencil d!ck of a writer has the brains to accomplish what Trump has and is now in a position to be the king maker. That is the problem in today’s liberal world. Liberals think that because they have a thought it is worth something when it is total garbage.
No kidding. Just. Wow.
Iowa really doesn’t matter...It’s New Hampshire that’s important...Cruz better hope Trump doesn’t drop out...He’ll miss his only chance at V.P...
Cruz may just win Iowa. He has a great ground game and plenty of money.
Cruz is the most conservative GOPe...He has no legitimate plan to bring jobs back to America except for the failed trickle down economics scheme...Cutting regulations on business is not going to be nearly enough to brings jobs back...
And although I'm on his side on the issue, attacking planned parenthood will shove away even moderate Republicans let alone Democrats...
The Texas Tribune is a far left publication. It tries to craft the public debate on the terms it prefers. Much of what is written in it is an attempt to shape the debate.
Back when I used to read it, so was the Tampa Tribune and it probably still is.
