HOUSTON, Texas – Today, Congressman Tom McClintock of California endorsed Ted Cruz for President. McClintock has spent his time in Congress fighting for conservative principles like working to limit the size of the federal government, reign in Obama’s lawlessness, repealing Obamacare and protecting the Constitution.

“This election is too important to leave to chance,” said Rep. McClintock. “Ted Cruz is the only top tier candidate we can be absolutely certain will govern conservatively and constitutionally; who will stand his ground no matter what the pressure and articulate our positions boldly and convincingly to the American people. (snip)"

“Tom is an unwavering leader in working to reduce government spending, reign in our debt and work for conservative reforms,” said Cruz. “He has consistently fought against the Washington Cartel. (snip)"

O.K. So I am not a committed conservative. I am kind of new to politics so I was hoping you could help me pick a candidate. Let me tell you a little about myself....

I breath with my mouth open and watch professional wrestling. I either don’t vote or I vote for Democrats. I steal tools from the scabs at my union jobsite. I love it when I hear famous people call each other “fat”, “loser”, “stupid” or “scum bag”....

Who should I support? Is there anyone I would like who is running in this election?

I would think Cruz is very popular in Cali.

For the brain dead, here are a few facts to consider:

  1. California has a rather substantial delegate count.
  2. It's winner take all.
  3. Cruz showed a substantial lead over Trump in the last poll.
  4. Tom McClintock is the most respected conservative in the State, who won repeatedly in a district that voted for Al Gore. Had the RINOs, including on this site, not stabbed him in the back, he might have won the recall and saved this State.
There, got it now?

You have no free speech here, this is the domain of the owner who happens to support Trump AND Cruz.

If you survive long enough here, maybe you’ll learn what this site is about.....but you know what they say about the word “if”.

To committed conservatives he's real popular.

Exactly. And to those "conservatives" who would roll over and accept a circus sideshow as their nominee, not so much.

Another GOPe steps forward.

That kind of bogus slander won't be tolerated here, BACK IT UP. McClintock was royally screwed by the GOPe in California statewide elections, twice.

Calling a Cruz supporter a troll on FR! So Trump-like. I must be on the wrong website.

“You have no free speech here, this is the domain of the owner who happens to support Trump AND Cruz.”

Feel free to report me as a “troll” because I have very reasonable doubts about Trump. If I am barred from Free Republic for it, then so be it. Life will go on.

BTW, if Trump is nominated as I expect he will be, Yes, I will hold my nose and vote for him. Then I’ll pray for the best.

The strength of a congresscritter endorsement of another congresscritter has questionable value in this election cycle.

Conservative is being redefined.

Yes it is, for the worse. Much worse.

You best pray for the best no matter who wins.....no one man is going to reverse the 100 year nightmare known as "progressivism".

But as it takes a rudder to alter a ships course, we must first initiate the turn

“....(So say the Trump fans)”

They are as naive as Republicans who voted for Arnold S. They put acting over substance.
