Cruz: I can win some blue states in the general election

Ted Cruz: "And I'll point out, what we do know doesn't work is following the Bob Dole-John McCain-Mitt Romney plan - that, we know, produces double-digit losses. So, the Washington conventional wisdom is that we need to keep moving further and further left and sounding more and more like the Democrats. And every time we do that we lose by bigger and bigger margins."

[ObozoMustGo2012]

Yep... he certainly won over New York!

[Balding_Eagle]

Cruz can’t win any Blue States in the Presidential election.

He’s not going to be the nominee.

[patq]

I’m pretty sure Quebec and Alberta are provinces and not states.

[JoSixChip]

Apparently it’s not just his supporters that are delusional.

[VanDeKoik]

“Cruz: I can win some blue states in the general election “

Yeah....like which one?

He has ZERO cross-over appeal in any demographic. I dont even think a single Cruz supporter has even attempted to claim otherwise.

I’m sorry, but when you compare the potential pull of Trump and Cruz, Trump wins in walk.

Now if Bernie Sanders is the nominee, then even JeBush could win.

[glock rocks]

Well, get used to the term “Trump democrats.”

[Catsrus]

Cruz is arrogantly, delusional.

[Zathras]

“Ohio, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin and New Hampshire”
I like Cruz but NOT A CHANCE he would pickup any of these states.

Probably loose FL , AZ and VA too.

[SubMareener]

Ted Cruz is really bringing out the Conservative vote!

[thackney]

Winning these state may not require any cross-over appeal.

There is likely more people willing to vote against Hillary Clinton as those voting for her.

[over3Owithabrain]

Yep. Was gonna say he should probably stop singling out large states for ridicule if he wants to sell himself as a crossover type guy.

“Now if Bernie Sanders is the nominee, then even JeBush could win.”

Some talk about Fauxcahontas joining him as VP. We’d be in for an ugly one.

Ted “Me Too” Cruz...now all of a sudden Cruz can win blue states and Reagan Democrats? Trump has been talking about his ability to do so from the moment he entered. Does Ted have an original campaign strategy of his own, or does he just follow Big Brother Donnie around?

[VanDeKoik]

2016 is definitely going to be a crazy one, that’s for sure.

[Vision Thing]

Come to think about it, that CR polka dot chart has very little blue in it.

[changeitback440]

Cruz can’t win any Blue States in the Presidential election.

lmao..... he will probably turn a couple more from red to blue

[Lumper20]

Agree.

[Jane Long]

Trump Democrats

One (or more ??) spoke at the YUGE Trump rally, last night. A retired vet.

Willard said the same thing during the 2008 POTUS campaign and he went 0 for 5. That includes the state of his birth where his father was a popular governor, Michigan, and the neighboring state from his home base where he also has a vacation home, NH.
