People should be angry. Anyone who is not is a fool who does not see what is being done.
.....Why people get upset.....
It boils down to self esteem
Some folks get so invested with a candidate that they take any criticism of the candidate at all as a personal insult.
Too funny!!!
Go Trump, go!
...I remember when I used to have heroes........
Yeah he’s too conservative. We need to nominate someone electable like Romney...
Yeah,...he’s loose!
Well...he was superman. Ha!!
And who is your choice?
What I say privately or on the forum, is not something a (supposedly Conservative) writer should say from a publication.
Curz deserves to be heard and let the voters make up their own minds. This nimnal (my word for low brain capacity) writer for National Review should stick to addressing issues if he has one he disagrees with.
Other than that, he should be talking down the other team and not members of our own.
The RNC....doesn’t tell the citizens how to vote.
Ted Cruz is the only candidate who’s successfully argued cases before the Supreme Court. He’s head and shoulders above the other candidates. Can anyone imagine Donald Trump convincing learned judges like Antonin Scalia, John Roberts, and Clarence Thomas to see things his way? A Donald Trump performance before the justices would be laughable, like a ‘’Saturday Night Live’’ skit.
Ted Cruz’s problem so far in running for President is that Republicans are not as wise and knowledgeable about the issues facing America as the Supreme Court is about legal issues. So most Republicans are not yet supporting Ted Cruz’s arguments that he would make the best president.
Yet the more Ted Cruz speaks, the more he enlightens Republicans about the policies needed to turn America around. And the more enlightened Republican voters become, the more they will support Ted Cruz — which is what’s happening now as Ted Cruz’s numbers rise.
It’s like ninth-grade algebra class — every few minutes another student finally get’s it.
By the time the primaries begin, Ted Cruz could well be leading the pack and be on his way to the White House.
Trump people jump on National Review every time they post an article that questions Democrat Don.
Irony. Sometimes it’s so ... ironic.
I think Trump will do. :-)
For those who “jump” on NR, good for them.
For me? Go Trump!
I am just going to answer you this way....we ran the “weak” Republican Establishment RINO, John McCain in 2008 for POTUS, and, he told us what a good man Barack Hussein Obama was, and he ran a terrible campaign and got slaughtered by a known American hater who dealt with Obama with kid gloves.
Ditto for Mitt Romney, another Republican Establishment RINO, in 2012, who proved to b even weaker the MCCain. For goodness sake....Romney let Candy Crowley of CNN mop up the floor with him!!!
Now you go nominate a Rubio or even a tough guy lik Ted Cruz....and...it will be curtains once again for the GOP!!! Trump is the one to save the Republican/Conservative party & make our nation Great, once again!!! End of story!!! And...the Republican primary voters better grab that fact real quick!!!
Yeah, what this guy is coming to grips with is that Jeb will never be the “flavor of the moment.”
You can't be labeled a Conservative or be the hope to save that wing of the party because it's expedient. You can't be labeled Conservative having supported the Clintons, advocated for higher progressive taxes and abortion. You can't be labeled a Conservative when you point to the Canadian helathcare system as successful. You can't be labeled Conservative when you favored legalizing drugs.
Look, I'm no Trump hater. I love what he's doing for the party and the race. He's saying things no one else will but he also has the luxury of doing that because he doesn't want to be tied down to any of his past views.
All that you have said about Cruz was said about Reagan. Elect him and the party is done. Elect him and he'll lose every blue state. Elect him we'll never win the White House again.
I speak only for myself. Cruz is the only true Conservative in the race. When you pit a true Liberal against a true Conservative the Conservative mostly wins.
BTW - everything you complained about Romney and McCain can be tied to Trump. Like I said, being Conservative for right now isn't being.
The primaries will bear it out. If Trump comes out of it ahead, then he'll have my vote.
why would ANYONE have a GOOD reason to write why somebody they like WONT WIN?
I haven’t chosen yet, but as you can tell, I want Cruz to do well, but I just have a very low opinion of America 2015, which seems unable to appreciate him.
