Just watched his interview with Candy Crowley. If looks could kill — !

And while he’s about the best we’ve got, he’s still yielding a lot of ground. Does pandering come naturally to every politician? She asks about the poor people, what do they do to afford health care, and he recites the tired old “vulnerable people” list: Hispanics, African Americans, single moms...”I don’t think that’s fair, I don’t think that’s right!”

Well, I don’t think that’s effective.

He’s not making a good case for terminating obamacare, and he’s implying the Republicans have a better plan.

I’d rather hear him say the GOP has no plan, and should have no plan, and here’s WHY!

I heard him say the exact thing at a NH speech on C-Span. But it wasn’t as you describe it here.

He said the poorest people are being harmed the most by OBAMACARE. He named those groups you mentioned as being harmed the most because they tend to struggle, economically. At no time did he even imply, much less say, that the GOP has an alternative plan for these specific groups a la pandering to those groups. He talked about what HE believes should happen regarding healthcare. Widespread competition among insurers, portability of plans from job to job, medical savings accounts that kind of thing.

His entire point is to stop Obamacare.

He didn’t make a case for stopping it??

UH, that’s not the problem, the American people are mostly desperate to stop it, it’s the elite class that won’t lift a finger to deFUND it. Cruz said the grassroots must rise up if there’s any chance at all to stop it.
