"If we must have an enemy at the head of Government, let it be one whom we can oppose, and for whom we are not responsible, who will not involve our party in the disgrace of his foolish and bad measures." - Alexander Hamilton |

"We don't intend to turn the Republican Party over to the traitors in the battle just ended. We will have no more of those candidates who are pledged to the same goals as our opposition and who seek our support. Turning the Party over to the so-called moderates wouldnt make any sense at all." -- President Ronald Reagan |

"A thing moderately good is not so good as it ought to be. Moderation in temper is always a virtue; but moderation in principle is always a vice." - Thomas Paine 1792 |

"It does not take a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of men." - Samuel Adams |

"If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams |

Not a Texas Reagan because Cruz IMO would never have fell for Amnest or raising taxes in exchange for reductions in spending that never came.
This guy is like Reagan with a much higher CPU but equals Reagan in ethics, heart and love of country.
God Bless America.

I’ll wager some here on FR will begin attacking Cruz because of some point or issue that he isn’t 100% perfect on. Rush is talking about this very thing right now.
I have a bad feeling “conservatives” are going to begin turning on Cruz very soon. I believe for some, there will be NO candidate perfect enough, conservative enough to be president.
We’re going to end up handing this election to Hillary or Warren...I just know it.

Whenever I hear a liberal say something about Ted Cruz, I’m going to accuse them of racism. Time to throw their own crap right back at them.

Reagan was NOT a lawyer. And your point is??? I'm not sure what your comment is meant to imply. I didn't read the whole article, but did the author say Reagan was a lawyer? Or are you saying Cruz is not another Reagan because Cruz is a lawyer and Reagan wasn't?
Inquiring minds want to know...

My bad feeling is that, while a significant number of conservatives seem enthusiastic about Cruz's candidacy, they won't put out the potentially superhuman effort needed to install Cruz in the White House. It's not enough to talk about Cruz. It's not enough to just vote for Cruz. Jeb will have the full party machine behind him. To get Cruz elected, we need to create and implement our own machine.

Agreed.
I sent him a small donation yesterday, and will continue to do so.
We demand 100% perfection from our candidates, that we could never live up to ourselves. I just don’t get it.

Agree, Romney got 10m of the 19m votes in the 2012 primaries mostly because he had the most dough.
