Fair enough I suppose. Carson didn’t get this much time, Rubio got a lot, will Cruz?
Heck, they are talking football now.

I really like Ted Cruz but I don’t think he floated down from heaven.

His father does.

Good point. Cruz has never led a business into bankruptcy before. Trump has much more experience.

Yes, he is a Sheriff from what he said. Wow, the guy was so humbled by the applause.

Hopefully all law enforcement will vote for Trump. Trump respects both the military and law enforcement personnel on every level.

Trump once again leads in this area. Would not be surprised if NYPD endorses Trump at some point. At least hope they do while their current mayor is against them which is so disgusting.

He didn’t say for those without insurance. Many are without insurance now because it is far too expensive. He is talking about the poor, indigent etc. Many people chose to not have insurance because they were young and healthy, or because it was not very affordable (recently). Back in the 80’s it wasn’t so disproportionately expensive. Costs have skyrocketed for many reasons.

I certainly don’t think Cruz is any kind of “savior”. He’s a man. He’s fallible. And he has made mistakes and errors (see TPA, Corker, etc). I know I won’t agree with him on everything. But I do understand we are at a precipise right now, and it will require someone with fortitude, strength, courage, and the whole understanding of the US Constitution. And not just that, but someone who has a proven consistent record of adhering, defending and upholding that Constitution. I think having a 97% conservative record is a good one to have, and considering what we have in our govt, makes someone more trustable, than a lesser score or no score at all.

On the other hand, making deals is just that, and when you have been making deals most of your adult life with those who want to tear down this nation, for their own political gain and global governance agenda, you’re on the wrong side.

That all said, I pray that the right man will win the fight. God is still in control. All I can do is pray and vote my conscience.

Really? I hope not. I would think Gov. Scott would like to go home and rest after his 2 terms. Some things he did I liked and other things he did were horrible. But since I didn’t keep a list, I can’t specifically enumerate.

My point in case you missed it was that he attack GWB for not keeping us safe when it is in fact Obama and his policies that have made us less safe... Get back to me when your boy apologizes about his stupid comments regarding GWB and starts to inform America on just how Obama has made this country less safe and is the cause of enhanced terror attacks... He really picked the wrong President and the wrong subject matter to attack a Conservative over....

That’s my point time was when everyone on this forum shared that opinion.... seems it has been infiltrated with the same liberals supporting Trump. I wish you all would go back to DU.

Go ahead and keep posting this. After all, we didn’t see it the first time.
My own kids were a gift from God, but I’d give the hell as needed. LOL.

Actually, Trump is for Government paying for everybody's healthcare. Which equals universal healthcare. Which means, it is NOT private.

Too much time in the park on the down low, wearing them Cuban heels...
