Now we get around to Reagan’s 11th commandment. After every single Republican candidate from Trump on down to Kasich have been repeatedly pummeled by fellow republicans using democrat talking points. Hillary’s people will not have to cut a single one of their own commercials in the general election. They will just play video of Trump attacking all other Republicans and Cruz, Bush, Rubio and Kasich attacking Trump. Its a little late for Trump or anybody else in this primary to be discovering the virtue of not negatively attacking your fellow republicans.

Trumps ad against Cruz was such an outrageous lie that no reasonable person could possibly believe it. It was such an outrageous lie, most people would start to question whether to believe Trump about anything he says.

[RasterMaster]

Doesn’t have to run negative ads....he’s got plenty of surrogates doing but for him and he can claim his hands are “clean”.

[Crucial]

Yes, Trump just loves us. He wants to protect us all and make sure we all have healthcare and we all have a unicorn that craps skittles.

[Crucial]

Yes, Cruz is apparently a nasty, pusdyfied, maniac and religious zealot. The Establishment and Yrp are not painting a believable picture.

[Paul R.]

Best for either Cruz or Trump. Oh, and best for the US of A. The GOPe MUST be destroyed, or at least rendered impotent.

Ted will slay the socialists that are in WAY over their heads already

In your eyes maybe...Ted has nothing to offer the Bernie and Hillary supporters...

Trump is the greatest person in the world, living or dead.

That's possible...But we know Trump's ideas and plans for America are the best of any plans in the world, living or dead...

Reagan was wrong...This race isn't about Party politics to those of us who are serious about saving the Country...

Besides, when the Party has become irrelevant which Reagan's Party has with its lying and deception, being taken over by lobbyists, there are no rules that have any sense of dignity...

Your denial doesn't make it a lie...

Sorry to say but negative ads work. Very effective of suppressing voter turnout.

[cornfedcowboy]

Trump called Cruz a liar this morning on Tampa radio.

[cornfedcowboy]

You should add: except for South Carolina. They play rough in that state. Always have.

[Kaslin]

Not for me and I doubt that I am the only one
