“If you ask me, there’s only so much “excitement” that should revolve around a politician, because it’s assumed people understand that they’re hiring an employee to do a job.”
????
That doesn’t even make any sense. I can only assume you dont see the orgasmic posts from the Cruz base on FR based on a poll showing him ahead in Iowa. But that excitement is ok? Some of these people were calling for everyone to drop out and endorse Cruz back in October!
The problem with Cruz’s supporters is that they act too arrogant and entitled by virtue of them proclaiming themselves the one true conservatives and that Trump doesnt deserve the support he has because he just came out of nowhere.
“So Trump has said some things. He’s an entertainer”
God this canard again. Thanks! I hear the same retarded line from the leftist press. Good to know the Cruz base is showing their “true conservatism” and adopting the same crap.
“Cruz is effective without yelling and railing and acting like a buffoon”
WHERE?!?!?!
Where is this series of fricking achievements that you people have? All I get is that he muddled the “Gang of 8” bill and THAT”S IT! If he had this long list of accomplishments I can guarantee you that you people would be posting it every 3 damn minutes! But all we got is you folks just repeating how effective he is because....well dont ask for details
“... and proposing we tear up the Constitution and install him as dictator.”
A thing that exists NO WHERE. But we hear tons of posts that Cruz will “restore the constitution” with then no details. Nothing! No plan, No idea, No indication as to how a guy with no support in congress for even the simplest darn thing will “restore the constitution”. He just will!
“Well, of course for those of you so emotionally invested in him, you’re going to rage. And he knows that and he plays to it; he understands his audience. Note how he fills his speeches with “me against the world” references. “
More of that crap you could have easily lifted from HuffPo or MSNBC. Oh he’s just tapping into rage, right?
“Personally, he isn’t my candidate and I recognize him as a liberal celebrity, so I don’t care.”
For a “liberal” he seems to do a damn better job of pushing conservative issues than many of you supposed “true conservatives”. I can guarantee you that none of the stuff we are talking about today would have been remotely part of the conversation if he was not there. But hey that stupid “liberal carnival barker” makes it easy for you guys to run around with your noses in the air thinking that all of this is being done for the benefit of Cruz, so who can blame you guys for being bitter at him upstaging all of these other guys.
Trump needs to do something he has never, by his own admission, done before— ask God’s forgiveness.
Daily “Build Up Cruz” piece in National Review. Predictable as clockwork.

“The sad thing is that every Trump supporter is ready to support Cruz if he wins..”
The thing is that before the Cruz people went on their mission to get Trump because he didn’t “implode” like they bet on, few Trump people were remotely against Cruz in any way. Many of us started on the Cruz side!
Now that they are using many times talking points from leftist media outlets to go after Trump and his supporters. So for a great deal of us, we are near washing our hand s of them, and wishing the best of luck against Hillary if he manages to win the nomination, because the crap they do in the primaries wont work on the left.
Cruz could have had the Trump position, and he didnt take those positions early. Thar’s not our fault.
I still go there to whip ass every now and then, and to look sanctified of course :).
It’s all too easy to post information about Trump’s doings with Copeland
All "too easy" but you will run into some serious problems nevertheless :)
LIMBAUGH: Brilliant, and conservative through and through. Trustworthy, strong, confident, leader, and somebody in whom you can totally depend.â€
Totally depend? Those are divine prerogatives he listed.

Divine? In my life, those same assessments have been made of me, I’m certainly not Divine.

Psalm 146:3 Put not your trust in princes.
“Forget the stupid media, Cruz needs to hit back at Trump. With just a month remaining before the primary starts, he needs to kick ass and take names.”
I’m not so sure. I see them both as a “good cop, bad cop” right now, and I think Cruz will ultimately be getting a lot of support as the good cop because of many voter’s impressions of the bad cop. I think he should remain on his present course.
Yes, absolutely. He’s playing on another level that the Media can’t even comprehend. It’s like playing checkers with someone else playing multi-dimensional chess!
Well, at least he got up on stage and waved a Bible around. /S
That’s just an excuse/ There may be a few Cruz supporters that attack you, Trump, but it’s not the majority.
They’re trolls, COA. They set up religious home pages, and spout religion, and/or they stand behind a military title-— but interestingly, they have not one good word to say about social conservatives like Cruz and Carson. In fact, they post attack articles against them.
They’re liberal trolls, hiding behind the Trump fig leaf.
Agree with you 100%.
This “Dominionist” garbage, which our resident troll is pushing in connection with Cruz, was popularized by none other than MSNBC’S Rachel Maddow. For a while there I noticed it popping up in the keywords on Cruz threads, most likely added by him.
He’s outed himself as a pure leftist.
A man not humble enough to bow before God is not a man to be trusted with the Presidency.
Cruz says NAFTA was a mistake.
You’re right. It ought to be obvious that we need a Godly man in office at this stage of the game.
Trump’s Christmas message wished his supporters a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays without any mention of the reason for the season.
Cruz’s message began with this:
“As we prepare to celebrate our Savior’s birth, we thank God for redeeming the whole world through the gift of His Son.”
And ended with this:
“Families, churches, and communities continue to bring the light of Christ to our fellow citizens. Heidi and I are grateful for Americans’ generosity, and most of all, we are thankful for God’s willingness to send His Son to us. We pray that during this Christmas season, we remember that little child born in a manger, and we cherish the time we have with family and loved ones to reflect on the blessings the Lord continues to bestow upon us.”
Such a contrast and yet, there are none so blind as those who WILL NOT see.
Thank God for Ted Cruz.
Yep, I’m right there with you.
Sorry, but the present course assumes that Trump will go down inflames within 1 month. That ain’t happening. Cruz has 5 options:
1. Wait it out and hope that Trump goes down in inflames before Super Tuesday.
2. Wait it out and hope that Trump picks him for VP.
3. Wait it out and hope that Trump picks for the SC.
4. Wait it out and hope that Hellary is a one term prez. Start all over again.
5. Go for broke. Kick ass and take name. Make Trump just another entitled billionaire like 50 others lining the pockets of politicians. No compromise and burn librul bridges.
