— Do you have any hard evidence of wrongdoing on Mrs. Cruzs part? Or is it all guilt by association? —
No question it is all guilt by association. To my knowledge, purely guilt by association.
In a way, that is the point. The leftist media destroys using guilt by association. And no Republican politician has yet found a way to defeat the practice. Cruz does not give the slightest indication he can do so.
That is not a knock on Cruz. That is simply reality.
Evidence? Since when has the leftist media needed evidence to construct a brutal narrative which drives out perfectly good people (Palin etc)?
The Goldman Sachs connection and the plutocrat donations will be enough fodder to construct a narrative which removes the Clinton corruption as an issue.
How good Cruz does in the debates (he would demolish Hillary) is irrelevant to the leftist control of our culture.
Cruz is a brilliant conservative. But so was Sarah.
Every conservative needs to ask who can defeat the leftist cultural hegemony, because we all know how brutally unfair things will be.
To start with, the necessities of holding political office will have weakened any Republican office holder, regardless of how good.
I realize it is just my opinion, but I think that weakness cannot be overcome by an officeholder.
Ummmm.... one has, so far. Donald Trump. He makes Teflon look stone age. Being visibly confident no matter what is a huge part of that formula.
Having Cruz under his wing as a running mate might be a huge plus. Donald would be the defensive gun for any unfair (or even semi fair) questions concerning Cruz. Of course this wouldn't really be Donald; it would be the Lord's blessing using Donald. God has a way of upstaging all our preconceived ideas.
