"......At the rally [Sen. Ted Cruz] spoke for forty-five minutes without notes, let alone a teleprompter. His speech was a mix of time tested tropes and new riffs pulled from the headlines. He did not stutter, stammer, or search for a word. There was an ideological coherence to his presentation that I have not seen from a presidential candidate since Ronald Reagan.
Nor was this just all talk. In his three-plus years in the Senate, Cruz has deviated from his stated principles far less than any of his colleagues and has the stab wounds in his back to prove it. One can compromise, Cruz noted, on details like, say, the top marginal rate on taxes. What one cannot compromise on are core beliefs.

After I posted a picture from the Cruz rally on Facebook, a liberal friend from New York responded, Cruz? Really Jack? He would suffer a Goldwater style defeat. No, the most principled Republican in thirty years would be running against the least principled Democrat in the history of the Republic.
This is a match-up I would enjoy. These are debates for which I would have friends over and make popcorn. This campaign season, finally, would be fun.

Trump is a vulgar toilet mouth pig who would turn the White House into a dollar an hour cat house and saloon.
How could anyone be proud of something that disgusting.
But then Trumpers are so seething with hate lies and vulgarity they focus on a food particle that very briefly appeared on Ted’s lip during the debate...and guess what they call it? Think of how filthy and disgusting Trump and his supporters minds are when of all possibilities, they choose to call it something nasty.
I reported this disgusting post to the website.
You deserve to be zotted.
It went viral so fast. Funny, very funny but Cruz will be fine.
They always mention goldwater but never REAGAN who like Trump built a coalition of independents and Blue collar Dems along with a majority of US Reps and Tea Party types.
I saw that last night. It went from his top lip then down to the bottom and then GULP:-)
LOL
Plus not a Cruz Bot can Tell what States he can Win.
It's over for Cruz even though he took Jeb's Finance Team.
Cruz is not qualified per the natural born citizen clause.
The only thing a vote for Cruz or Rubio does is further the destruction of the natural born citizen clause.
Voted for Ted on Super Tuesday...
How Ted Cruz Became Ted Cruz
In just a few years, he turned an obscure Texas legal post into a national platform for red-meat conservative causes.

Disillusioned former Obama voters...
He had a very good February but blew a great amount leading into Super Tuesday.
Some are speculating the money wells could be drying up.
Again, as you mentioned, GS is always willing to loan out more money especially after his wife became an MD there.
After yesterday there is no need any further to delineate between Cruz and Rubio, it’s simply Crubio.
Ted Cruz was the Attorney General for Texas, hardly a paid legal mouthpiece.
And Obama had flies landing on his person during public appearances during the campaign of ‘08....didn’t seem to have doomed him.
The Donald has dragged the most desperate of the lagging contenders into the gutter...
Pitchfork Pat Buchanan’s FReeper brigades were worse when he ran for President. Truly was a cult of personality that screamed heretic or worse at anyone who disagreed with Buchanan or was skeptical about his chances to become President.
Please explain that a person born as an American citizen, without ever having been “naturalized” is not eligible to be president?
