his out of-the-blue-abortion question during the debates.

I am thankful he asked the question. Abortion is my number one issue. I guess you don’t care about it, but I do. I was extremely happy to have the question.

De-link insurance from employment and make it portable.

I’m all for it if the law is written such that individuals get the tax breaks for premiums like employers currently enjoy.

Sorry you have no right to tell me as a business owner where I can or can’t send the jobs for the products I produce - in a free society. “Bring more jobs home” only happens when you create a climate in government and society where the incentive to build things here outweighs the opportunities over there.

Defunding this monstrous encroachment of our rights and over-reach with new federal programs is the only the start to get what you are seeking. Revising/eliminating the current tax code, major tort reform, eliminating the EPA, DoE, HS, and a ton of other “bloatocracies” will go a long way to create the kind of incentives that will trigger a resurgence of new jobs, growth and recovery. It really is that simple.

This bitch was trying to pull a Stephanopolous (sp/) with his out of-the-blue-abortion question during the debates.

I have to wonder why Cruz agreed to an interview with this woman. He handled her very well, but she was in full "gotcha" mode with a snotty attitude. She was fishing for a sound bite.

It’s not intellect just as it was not with Reagan. It is a patient and non angry spirit that has strength because of that!

Even though the Republican party does not control the White House, it still needs a leader.

John Boehner and Mitch McConnell, besides being Republicans in Name Only are also Leaders in Name Only.

There is a huge vacuum of leadership in the Republican party which Ted Cruz is beginning to fill. Forget 2016 for the moment — every time Ted Cruz hits it out of the park in interviews, speeches, statements, or policy proposals, he’s helping the Republican party.

In 2010, Sarah Palin by herself made an enormous contribution to getting a record number of Conservatives elected to Congress, and with Ted Cruz helping her in 2014 we should be very optimistic.

Never. Never watch BOR ‘cept when I make a mistake and then I quickly divert. Matthews? Who is that?

One can stand a little ugly or gentrification when the speaker has something else to offer but in this case.... two wrongs don’t make a right.

Cringing Negativism Network is stuck in 1930 and wants to bring back the Smoot-Hawley Act but forgets that unemployment doubled and then tripled in the years after it was enacted.

He can’t think in dynamic terms, only static. I’ll bet he’s a terrible chess player, too.

Great...in context. Ultimately, it sucks that our heavy-hitters have to go on these forums. I wish he could just stuff her and her snarky loaded questions.

Lol. Not sure about that. A bit out of practice, but used to be pretty good.

From my standpoint it is time we begin to consider tariffs, to a degree that they make sense.

What that degree is, I do not know.

But we are currently approximately 17 trillion dollars in the fiscal hole, and sinking.

Something cannot continue, the way it stands.

That much I know.

Thanks for the ping!

Candy Crowley is such a hag.

And Ted Cruz is magnificent.
