Now for a short public service announcement to all on FR:
We need to ensure we don't get another Obama-like America Hater as the next President.
The best way to ensure that is to actively support a candidate as the next President.
I prefer Cruz and my money goes to his campaign, hence the Cruz link. If you like someone else, donate to him/her (find your own link to do it) and if you use FR and don't donate, then please don't complain about the welfare leeches or those who have Obama Phones because, functionally, you are no different than any other who enjoys the fruits of others' work for your own benefit.
PS - If you are one of those who cannot afford even a small donation to FR or a candidate, God Bless and happy FReeping!.....
GO CRUZ!! Keep it up Trump!!
I don’t believe his will wither, but I remember him saying that once he wins the nomination other funding will kick in.
“Cruz has been leading in Nevada.”
Source?
This poll disagrees.

Sorry...as far as I know every informal poll at FR has shown Cruz preferred to Trump. Nice try.
“Cruz has been leading in Nevada. Things are likely to shift once Trump loses a contest or two.”
Here’s my issue with Cruz: Can he win the general? With nearly half of the population receiving government money (welfare, unemployment, social services, government jobs, pensions, and unions) there is a very thin margin for victory. That’s where the independents come into play.
Trump seems to have won them over. Can the same be said for Cruz? I wouldn’t recognize Cruz on the street, and I’ve voted GOP all my life.
I want a conservative president very much. But I want Hillary defeated more.
If Cruz takes Iowa, comes in third or fourth in New Hampshire, and then takes South Carolina then the momentum will have started to build.
ping
Cruz is the better candidate but he is not favored at this point to be the next president. This is just the media trying to manipulate the republicans.
Has anyone in the GOPe threaten to leave the GOP if Cruz is the nominee? Has anyone in the GOPe threaten to support Hillary if Cruz is the nominee? Has anyone in the GOPe threaten to run a third party candidate if Cruz is the GOP nominee?
lmao...... what does it tell you if Cruz can’t win on freerepublic?
It tells me that the mods have been working overtime silencing conservative constitutionalists. Ask me how I know.
You are wrong and not very insightful.
What he did is commendable, but unfortunately in doing it he made enemies of people who will stand in his way.
He does have the way with people that Trump does in getting his way.
Merry Christmas!
“what does it tell you if Cruz can’t win on freerepublic?”
FR has had two polls - Cruz won both.
A) The Iowa straw poll no longer exists and (B) The straw poll was not the Iowa Caucus.
There has never been an “Iowa Straw Poll”. It was the “Ames Straw Poll”, as the Iowa caucuses were also actually a straw (non-binding) poll with no delegates or other advantage awarded.
