Sweet dreams, manc.
Thanks for all the trouble.
All those high unfavorables and yet Trump beat Cruz straight up for the Evangelical vote again last night.
“Understand Einstein?”
“fact” “virtually” “polls”
No, Einstein does not understand.
Cruz was the only candidate to campaign in Idaho. About one fifth of the population is Mormon. It is more than likely Romney, a Mormon, had an impact there. I was not surprised that Cruz won there.
Trumpophiles do have a tendency to be a bit obtuse, so no surprise.
No, the guys on 820.
Watching the Ted Cruz love fest. This is my problem with Cruz. Never a difficult question ever. He lied 3 times so far and Meghan said nothing.
The Meghan Kelly town hall is a barf fest. They are building him up no question. I am disgusted with this primary.
I do. I am able to move where I want soon and Idaho is one of the states I consider livable. I am ultra conservative and like mountains and potatoes. Not mountains of potatoes. I like steak with my potatoes. They have also been infiltrated by the admin’s Muslim immigrants though, so they must have voted for Cruz. That must be why he won, right?
There is no greater liar than Ted Cruz. He gives me the creeps with his Ferret face. ...just my humble opinion...
Show me where Cruz won all the states with closed primaries.
Cruz can’t beat Trump. Cram your Einstein where the sun don’t shine.
As for the primary, I'm fairly sure Romney was the vote, Cruz was the vehicle.
What I've been looking for, were there any Romney robo-calls for Cruz in Idaho, like the ones Romney made for Rubio in Florida?
? Cruz's family on both his mom and dad's side comes from a long line of Catholics.
Cruz’s father left the Catholic Church and became a Dominionist protestant.
Anyone know how trumps meeting with bill clinton went?
Same arguements can be made.
And they do. If they are happy with sanders or hillary or dont think they’re vote would make a difference they head over to the gop side to “help” us pick someone.
“Trumpophiles do have a tendency to be a bit obtuse, so no surprise.”
Your optimism for you candidate is admirable. My point, which eludes you, is that “fact” is not a statistical term. Whereas “virtually” and “poll” are statistical terms, and not “fact”.
Sort of a “one of these things is not like the other” exercise. Maybe too obtuse, as you say, for someone of less-than Einsteinian intellect. I keep forgetting to simplify for you. My fault.
To represent a poll - taken today - about an event more than 6 months distant is also sketchy.
I encourage you to continue to support your candidate, as an exercise in civics, if for no other reason.
At best, he could have made the argument that Ted Cruz's dad was not a ACTIVE, PRACTICING Christian until he joined a protestant church, but to flat out say that only fundamentalist born-again protestant churches are "Christian" is akin to saying you don't own a car unless its a Ford. Whether Ted's dad drove his old car (Catholicism) or not, it doesn't change the fact that he had one.
I even pinged this FReeper to a thread about Justice Scalia's funeral (which was precided over by his son, Rev. Paul Scalia), and noted that using his logic about Ted Cruz's dad, the Scalia family "never became Christian", and asked if he believed that. I never got a reply.
But I see no evidence that Ted Cruz holds a "The small minority of American protestants who go to revival meetings in the bible belt are the only true Christians in the world" POV. Since there's a long line of Catholics on both his mom and dad's side, most of Cruz's close relatives like cousins, aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, grandparents, etc., are Catholic. I doubt Ted Cruz sees his relatives at Christmas time and says they "ain't Christians". Cruz cited Obama forcing the Little Sisters of the Poor to pay for abortion as example of Obama's "War on Christianity", so clearly Ted Cruz sees Catholic nuns as Christian.
