Cruz misspells names of Dems he says Trump supported
The Hill ^ | February 17, 2016 | Rebecca Savransky

Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz misspelled the names of several Democrats in a list he distributed Wednesday of Dems linked to rival Donald Trump.

Under the headline "The Real Donald Trump," the list shows the names of various Democrats next to the amount of money Cruz says Trump donated to them. The people listed include former president Jimmy Carter, Vice President Joe Biden and Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.

But the list misspells several names, including Rahm Emanuel, Joe Lieberman, Eliot Spitzer and Shelley Berkley, as first pointed out by a New York Times reporter on Twitter:

Pretty small thing compared to Obama saying he wanted to campaign in all 52 states.

57! There were 57 states.

Yes, by all means suspend disbelief and jump on the zombie bandwagon. Don't think critically about it, you might have some dissonance to attend to...

Sorry, lormand. You may as well be trying to reason with Obama supporters when they were swooning over his magnificence in 2008. Trump folks don't go for intellectual discourse. They're feeling the power. They're smitten by his rudeness, confusing it with political incorrectness. Because he has pronounced a thing, he will deliver (in spite of proof offered to the contrary).

Note the Trumpbots can usually only post (1) graphics declaring Trump's fabulousness; (2) attacks of the messenger (the more truthful the indictment of Trump, the more vicious the attack), (3) accusations that anyone not in the Trump camp is really an establishment GOPer in disguise, (4) other variations of those tactics. If you believe you're going to run into a thinking individual with whom you can have an intellectual exchange, forget it. Hence, Trump, by cobbling together a motley assortment of Americans, has made the Republican Party (not conservatism) more palatable and is, therefore, in the lead.

I liked your list of priorities on your profile page with one exception: I'd put Texas before America. I think it's about time to put a fork in America. There may still be hope for Texas.

Well, we can understand that he would have trouble spelling non-Canadian names.

I am going to start subscribing to the NY TIMES immediately.

Trump event; North Augusta, South Carolina 2/16/16

The protester is carrying the message from the politicians, lobbyist, donors, influence peddlers, the well connected and those with motives of bad intent>

Agree, Ted needs to get back on message and stop this nonsense now. I am voting for him

If you are a Cruz supporter.....you must have noticed how Cruz has been in "media black out" most of this election cycle unless the media is pushing another candidate's bombastic rhetoric against Cruz. Then they pull Cruz in for a response.

How do you fight that and get some media coverage? Call Trump on his Alinksy play of "The threat is usually more terrifying than the thing itself."....and do it in a way that gets the media ALL EXCITED about a cage match fight so they will actually televise Cruz to see what else he will say.

Also, I believe Trump has screwed up on Alinsky rule: "A tactic that drags on too long becomes a drag." and Cruz is going to take advantage of that

Do people actually read these full page ads that some post?

As new person here, they are about as agitating as pop-ups, and they get about as much of my attention.
