I was saying in the earlier post that Cruz is a top debater, who frankly would NOT want to see up against my guy, Trump because Cruz grows on you, but so does Trump.

So, Cruz is Cruzing along, and then he steps into the New York values thing. And the first of answer is actually pretty good. He doesn’t back down. NEw York values, are abortion, gay marriage, secularism etc. Pretty good and hard to say no to that...

But then he gets slick and the smartassness comes out and he says very few conservatives some out of Manhattan...

Boom, Donald Trump, almost 30 years his senior, fires back.. Bill Buckley was from Manhattan. WOW!

The he masterfully weaves a from the heart answer about 911.

I’m sorry, Cruzers...you’re guy was doing great until that point...

I agree with you. We have a guy who will win New York. I don’t know how many deligates you get, but Trump will probably get them all.

I think what offended me most about that remark Nikos, was the suggestion Cruz made to the audience that they understood what New York was and what he meant. I am a South Carolinian and I thought he was pandering to us in the South at the expense of the North. I didn’t like it at all.
The comment he made to Maria that maybe she was not aware of what New York was like ( she lives there) was also gratuitous.
A stupid self inflicted wound.
