Cruz however manages an audience as well as anyone I have seen. He may not have closed it up but it was a really good speech. From the heart,no prompter.

I’ve been watching CNN to see what the independents see and THERE WAS NO TED CRUZ. Period. Like he never existed.

Davis:

“We should have known that things started with styrofoam Greek columns and smoke don’t end well.”

I’m really out of sort with this guy Davis, but what happened to make him switch? This is the first time I hear about him. I guess been out of the loop recently.

Akin is a buffoon.

Rick did a great job conveying a personal real story of life.

Here is another...I’m a monkeys uncle!

My nephew Curious George was born last year at 26 weeks. 1 pound 4 ounces. My sister had preeclampsia.

The little monkey is a cute healthy smiling infant now.

Me too, but their coverage is the best. Most neutral coverage there is.

Washington Journal is a piece of crap spammed by Libtards.

I think we’d get in a lot less trouble with clothespins. LOL!

I’ll be voting for Paul Ryan when I go. I’m not happy with Romney as the nominee at all. But I’m even less happy with the prospect of another Obamarx term.

OK, now I’m beyond angry and want to bring a lawsuit against CNN.

They completely edit out every bit of Ted Cruz?

Imagine if FNC completely edited out every crumb of Obama in ‘08.
