This article was written by Politico - how the hell would they even know what conservatives like those in SO Carolina would feel? The article twists what was certainly a great night for Ted Cruz into questioning whether conservatives would feel about him?
I wish they would have sent Leigh Munsil to do the article: she covers military stuff for them and comes from a long line of REAL CONSERVATIVES...a true voice in an otherwise liberal bastion!
Reagan had electability. So did W. We need a conservative who can win the center without giving up his or her principles. Cruz may be that guy. Time will tell.
“Electability,” say Mizz Lindsey.
Hmm....
The GOP tries for the moderates and independents on both sides, and would love to get the far left, and despise the right
Cruz appeals to the right, will appeal to anyone with a brain that works. That leaves out the libs. He can get all the moderates and even the far left who think more tha reactionary libs
Watch out
ONE OF THEIR OWN...NOT passing out the guacamole for free!! A REPUBLICAN!! Oh no!!
:o)
This whole article is based on comments by the ultimate GOP-E Backstabber Lindsey Graham.
Who in the hell cares what that nancy boy had to say?
Especially when it comes to electability?
Ted Cruz Ping!
GOP-E backstabber Lindsey Graham tries to tell us that Ted Cruz is not electable at the national level.
Rand Paul seems to be spending a lot of words trying to convince them that he is electable.
Example : He would re-phrase Jeb Bush statement on illegals acting out of ‘love’
Lets see if a warm and fuzzy Ted Cruz appears to compete with it.
Unlike Slick Willie's wife who has people taking the shoes off their feet and sailing them towards her. LOL!
I am still waiting for an example of this. He is neither unwilling to compromise, nor combative.
Once again Linda proves his ability to be absolutely wrong!
Got that far then I barfed.
The misleading headline, which contradicts the content of the article:
Ted Cruz faces 2016 skeptics in South Carolina
By the time the Texas Republican senator finished speaking Tuesday night, an adoring audience hailed Cruz and his no-compromise, combative style of conservatism that has made him the scourge of the GOP establishment but a hero of the tea party.
I've got whiplash pollutico, which is it? Skeptics or adorers?
“Electability — that will be his challenge,” said Republican Lindsey Graham, South Carolina’s senior senator. “He’s got to show he can put the patchwork together.”
Aha! So the skeptic is Lady Lindsey?! The mini-me to the AZ senile senator who called Senator Cruz a whacko-bird?! Surely you can come up with a more objective skeptic?!
Rep. Mick Mulvaney said the Texas senator “fell flat” and “missed an opportunity” to show he can lead the country and the party out of the political wilderness when he spoke last May in Columbia, S.C., at the Silver Elephant Dinner.
“It was the same old, same old,” said Mulvaney, a Republican who represents the northern part of the state and was elected in the tea party wave of 2010. “It’s the same thing you see on Fox News every single night. I guess that’s fine for a certain segment of the Republican primary base in South Carolina ...
Who is this turkey? He sounds like a northeast liberal not the tea party wave. Slamming Fox News like a liberal ... in South Carolina?! Isn't he aware that Newt Gingrich won South Carolina primary in 2012?!
Total FAIL by the pollutico team. Very entertaining.
The Politico. My favorite source for news on the conservative front. :-)
Surprise, surprise, surprise....Politico doing a hit piece on Ted Cruz. Who would ever expected that?
Goober Graham can take his “electability” and shove it up his arse.
Electability. We have been hearing that from RINO losers for 8 years now. What do they know about “electability”? They have no current success to back up that they are electable. The proof that a RINO is electable is not there. The RINOS have no proof that they are electable. Period.
I want Ted Cruz!
if he doesn’t run, I probably won’t
vote.
