Republican presidential candidate Texas Senator Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) cr97% argued fellow GOP candidate Donald Trump can't beat Democratic candidate former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton because he "agrees with Hillary Clinton and can't take it to her" during Thursday's GOP presidential debate on CNN.
Cruz said, after stating he would release his tax forms, and that if Trump is being audited, it gives more of a reason for him to release his tax returns, because the voters should know if there is fraud, "[I]n the last 10 polls on Real Clear Politics he's [Trump's] lost to Hillary on eight of them. In the last 10 polls on Real Clear Politics, I either tied or beat Hillary, and this is an example. You know, the mainstream media's laying off Donald now. They're going to pick apart his taxes. They're going pick apart his business deals. And let's take, for example, one of Hillary as great vulnerabilities, the corruption at the Clinton Foundation, the fact she had CEOs and foreign companies giving her money, while she was secretary of state. The next Republican nominee needs to be able to make that case against Hillary. And if Donald tried to did it, Hillary would turn to Donald and say, but gosh, Donald, you gave $100,000 to the Clinton Foundation. I even went to your wedding.' He can't prosecute the case against Hillary, and we risk another four years of these failed Obama policies by nominating someone who loses to Hillary Clinton in November."...

Rubio would get less turnout than Romney
I agree. I didn’t say he could beat Hillary. I said his chances would likely be better than all the other candidates (except Trump).
I do not know if Trump could beat Hillary either but I do know it will not be the conventional political race she’s familiar with.
Last night Ted Cruz had the chance to talk about big ideas and constitutional principles last night but he did not.
The front runner is lacking in the one area Cruz excels...policy.
Cruz had an opportunity to rise above the fray but instead he climbed into the mud pit and started slinging.
Unfortunately, this will be what gives us either Donald Trump or Marco Rubio).
Today Ted Cruz says: Marco Rubio and I would both be a much better president than Donald Trump.
Now THAT takes the cake! That’s not the Ted Cruz I have been standing behind.
With a brick bat?
And that ain/t all....wait til Donald tweets out details of the
Clinton Foundation/s (cough) charitable activities. Heheheheh.
I bet Bubba laughs to himself every night at the thought.
Funny, I haven’t seen a debate between the two yet. My, My, guess you have a crystal ball.
Trump for President and will be.
Say what?
I wonder what Cruz's freeper screen name is?
Or would be?
Ha Ha Ha Ha. Yeah, Cruz sure did. Stupid!
I suppose you are right. If he can't beat one Progressive Democrat in his own party, he probably can't beat the other in the Democrat Party, unless that other is indicted.
Cruz never should have gotten into the race. Very disappointed, I used to have respect for him.
That's BS, and you know it!
Ted beat Rubio in Las Vegas & South Carolina!
Oh, wait...
How many of the candidates have said Hillary is not qualified to even run since she should be in jail?
I can think of only one.
The one winning.
Yes I know what you meant because you are an angry, petty, nasty person who has put your self on a level only Dems sink to. I just didn’t want to point that out and embarrass you. Again bless your heart someday you may grow up and not act so childish.
LOL...you guys really are dense. Remember that he finished THIRD in SC? Behind his new pal Rubio that he endorsed last night. Remember?
I wonder what Cruz's freeper screen name is?
Or would be?
He should go with "Jim Thompson" to try and gain some respectability...
Whoever told you “Just be yourself” gave you some really bad advice...
Ted Cruz is a cheater. Plain and simple.
You have full-blown TDS.
This is considerably kinder than what I was going to write.
