Ummmm.... how is that overwhelming GOP landslide victory in 2014 working out for ya? Boehner and McConnell went to Washington and acted exactly like Pelosi and Reid. 2014 proves that it's not a matter of having the GOP candidate win elections . It's a matter of having conservatives of the kind who do exactly as they said they would do while campaigning. Amongst the GOP field, Ted Cruz is the only one who run on repealing Obamacare and actually brought the entire federal government to a halt trying to repeal Obamacare. On issue after issue after issue, Cruz is the only one who went to Washington and did exactly as he promised the voters he would do. Talk is cheap. Anyone can promise anything when they want you to vote for them. Who has actually carried out their promises to voters?
Cruz IS the best candidate we've had run for president in either party for decades.

Cruz IS the best candidate we've had run for president in either party for decades. I mean "best" in the context of who is able to motivate voters to vote for him, not who has the positions which most closely align with conservatism. Having conservative positions is great, but a candidate must be able to get people to support him. Reagan overcame the establishment and the MSM. Cruz must do the same.
