But that example isn’t from any single candidates campaign.

I guess Iowans will decide for themselves if they think it works when coming from a candidate himself.

So-called “experts” have been running our country.

How’s that working out?

And a good way to get people to go to a caucus. You can bet they were aimed at likely Crux supporters.

Momma says Trump is de devil. Go vote or you will burn in Hades. If I lose it is fault of voters. I am so perfect and you fools too dumb to know better etc.

To put him in that box for every reason is ignoring that he was sent by the Tea Party to stop Obama’s agenda and shake up the status quo in D.C., which he has done everything in his power to do.

You really think so? Tell me: why isn't Ted Cruz in Washington DC doing his job? Why is he missing votes? Why has he failed to build a coalition against Obama? Why do other Conservatives hate him so? Why is it he seems to get along with no one?

In an alternate universe, Trump sent this out and you’re calling for his head.

The neighbors can’t invite them without shaming them firs?

Has Trump done this?

You make little sense.

No conservatives hate Cruz. Total nonsense.

He’s running for President where he’ll bring the Tea Party revolution to the White House and have the power to do much more.

He gets along with lots of people and has more official endorsements than Trump.

Why do you believe the DC RINO spin about him? You seriously think the fact that Boehner, Ryan and McConnell don’t form a coalition with him is a negative on him? You would rather vote for the candidate those guys want to deal with?

Re: “Voters should be ashamed for not voting.”

Be careful what you wish for.

The only reason the GOP won impressive Congressional victories in 2010 and 2014 is because huge numbers of Black, Hispanic, and Asian voters stayed home.

And, Conservative voters did not stay home in 2012, causing Romney to lose. Romney got 1.5 million more white votes in 2012 than McCain got in 2008.

Obama was reelected in 2012 because Blacks, Hispanics, and Asians turned out in record numbers.

Please be honest.

And the Trumpkins are saying Trump is steamrolling the competition with a relentless campaign because he is going to win, win, win.

This pisses me off, and I am a consistent voter and a Cruz supporter. Who legally votes and who does not vote in *any* election should not be publicly available information. Although they too were consistent voters, my parents in the final years of their lives did not have the mental or physical capacity to make informed choices on candidates or ballot issues. I would have ripped off the head and **** down the neck of any politician or PAC leader who would’ve had the gall to shame them to their neighbors. Gonna have to rethink Cruz if he doesn’t stop it.

The Iowa debacle of Cruz expands! If I get one here in Colorado I’ll sue the bastard.

My response would be I hope the best man for the future of this country wins.

But I'll be honest enough to admit the mistake and dirty tactic.
