Mrs. Smooth is turned off by his too tight jeans. She says he looks disgusting.

He started out being my second choice because of his constitutional background. But after all his dishonest and underhanded sleaze, I’ve relegated him to the dust heap.

Unfortunately, I am pretty sure that you are right.

In the other threads I see the Cruzies are trying really hard today with all kinds of posts to slam Donald Trump. Let them bang their heads against the wall, it’s not moving their polls at all. Waiter, more popcorn please. ;-)

I figure after SC and NV go to Trump the Cruzers will pretty much have the wind out of their sails and we can all get back to looking toward the general election.

Cruz is an over-ambitious career politician, who will lie, cheat, and use every dirty trick in the book to advance his career.

See for yourself what he said in 2013. Now he has flipped. Which Cruz is to be believed? How is Cruz a good Christians when he lies with a straight face, and cheats an honest man like Dr Carson?

A few minutes ago I was reflecting back on him, and for some reason that campaign mailer that said, “Check enclosed” on the outside came to mind.

Here it is: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CaS2NCJUUAAoHb7.jpg

I don’t know how many people have the same reaction I do when I get mailings like that, but it immediately drops my respect for the sending party to absolute zero.

It’s ultimately dishonest, deceptive, misleading, and an implied lie, “You stand to gain if only you’ll open this mailer.”

That ranks down below a used car salesman to me.

Then his mailer that implied folks had somehow violated voting guidelines, and neighbors would know...

If you know nothing more about the guy than those to campaign tactics, it would tell you this man has no morals, and doesn’t deserve to sit in a position of authority.

Trump is certainly not perfection, but when the cards are delt and the chips are on the table, I expect him to show us his cards.

Ted has displayed he would be willing to hide things from us or misrepresent the facts.

And that is just what his campaign has been IMO > one big massive misrepresentation of the facts.

Sorry Ted, but you’re out.

“Very conservative,” Cruz 37, Trump 33
“Conservative” Trump 49, Cruz 18
“Evangelical” Trump 41, Cruz 25 (!!!)


That is unbelievable...

Yeah, the sleaze factor created quite a stench, no doubt about it.

If the issue of “mailers” is a deciding factor for you, I wish I lived in your country. Unfortunately the U.S. has 500 problems more pressing than that all being caused by putting non-conservatives in political office.

Cruz didn’t even know his campaign workers passed on CNN’s report until long after it happened. Other campaigns told Cruz supporters at the caucus Cruz wasn’t eligible for the presidency. That was the outright lie.

CRUZ/S WHIRLING DERVISH ROUTINE: He supports it and then votes against it to provide cover for himself.

Example: Crux's cloture vote. He pushed for it, then voted to bring it to the floor, then voted against it knowing it was going to pass.

=================================================

SOP for self-serving Cruz---an Ivy League mind at work:

<><> He takes 3-4 positions on an issue.

<><> He then lies in wait to see which position benefits him.

<><> Once the voting stops, he examines which way the political winds are blowing.

<><> He then pulls out a canned excuse to cover his self-serving ***.

Add to the lack of size,

<><> Cruz/s industrial strength narcissistic personality...

<><> his lifelong self-absorption

<><> putting himself first above others, always acting as if he were better and smarter than the rest of humanity....

<><> a snob in spades....feeling he is destined for great things.

<><> Cruz wouldn/t play team sports b/c he/d share the glory with others.

<><> His vaunted debate championship was not in the National Debate Tournament of 2-person teams;

<><> Cruz debated in a Canadian tournament where he received all the credit himself.

<><> his reputation in the Senate....where most of his Senate colleagues despise him....is well-deserved. (hat tip bigbob)

I’s easy to do clips from his speeches about the poison pill amendment he offered and portray him differently than he was.

But that is not an accurate portrayal at all of what happened at the time.

He knew his bill would fail, but he pushed it specifically to show that the Gang of Eight and the dems were not interested in anything but trying to get the vote of the illegals.

His language would have given them most of what they said that they wanted...but specifically excepted the vote. And THEY voted it down. And in doing so, they proved Cruz’s point.

He fought them tooth and nail and save for him and Sessions, it is likely that the bill they dems fostered would have passed.

But it did not.

That’s what really happened...and I know it is easy to take his efforts to present that poison pill bill and portray it as if though he were actually in favor of what Rubio and the others were pushing at the time.

But it is simply not so...and those of us who were plugged into this at the time all knew it and applauded him for his efforts...and his success...in helping defeat that bill and the gang of 8 at the time.

The really sad thing about this poll is that 35% are in favor of the two still in the race who are ineligible. They good part is that Trump beats their combined total by 7.

Many Americans are beginning to understand the Natural Law definition of natural born Citizen as understood by our Founding Fathers. I believe this is partly the reason why both Rubio and Cruz are polling so poorly.
