Cruz Bypasses Trump In New Attack And Goes Straight After His Voters- ‘Voters Who…’
Sen. Ted Cruz identified Wednesday what he believes is one of the main causes Donald Trump has outperformed in many of the Republican primary contests to date — low-information voters who are not really engaged in the process.
Cruz, who has made a hard play for evangelical voters since launching his candidacy, has been thwarted in the south by Trump, who has carried a surprisingly large percentage of those faith voters.
“If it’s not for evangelicals in the deep South keeping Donald Trump alive, you’re on your way to becoming the nominee. Would you agree with that assessment?” asked CBN’s David Brody.
“Donald has done well in the Southeastern states,” Cruz conceded. “He has had a good base of support. We’ve done well as well. We’ve been typically second in each of those states, and we’ve racked up delegates.”
“Listen, Donald does well with voters who have relatively low information, who are not that engaged and who are angry and they see him as an angry voice,” the Texas senator added. “Where we are beating him is when voters get more engaged and they get more informed. When they inform themselves, they realize his record. He’s what they’re angry at.”

Cruz supporters have closed their eyes to who this man really is. No president, and I mean - NO president is going to overturn Roe vs. Wade. The states are taking care of this by defending PP in many of them. As for gay marriage - well, I believe that will go the same route. After all, Ted did do a fundraiser at a hotel full of gay men. Wise up!
Palin took it to old Ted earlier today. Sad how the Canadian decided to attack the intelligence of working class Americans...

Hey, Ted, one significant reason for that is southerner evangelicals just aren't into your sort of Elmer Gantry routine. They have pastors and then revival preachers that come around in the summer, so they aren't looking for another preacher in a president.
Leave the preaching to the actual preachers. In a president, they want someone who'll stand up to all the interests trying shape the USA to suits their purposes, and not become just another bought and paid for DC politician.
“Words have consequences someone once said.”
Reminds me of a quote: “My most prized possessions are those words I kept to myself.”
So, you know him personally, and better than those who have worked for him for many years? I don’t think so. Cruz is a nasty little lying man - Jim Jones 2.0
The elder Cruz preaches that Christians are divided into Kings and Priests,.....the kings (politicians) go out and conquer the financial world and bring the money back to the priests (pastors in contemporary terms).
Ted and Heidi Cruz/s economic libertarianism also dovetails nicely w/ globalist Goldman/Sachs---who financed Ted into office. G/S is Heidi's $700,000 a year employer. So it looks like the Cruz/s have a head start in getting money back to the pastors.
====================================
Cruz should tell voters:
<><> what role does he plan for his preacher father in the US govt,
<><> what govt job does he plan to give his G/S globalist lawyer wife?
I'd like to see Trump pound Cruz over and over again on issues like the TPP tonight. People need to know where this schmuck is coming from.
Without the economic there is no social
1) Call them names.
2) ???
3) Profit!
Trump for President
I maybe wrong, pehaps that is the strategy. Cruz knows he may not get the nomination so the “GOPe establishment” are saying “Let Hillary have it”.
Well, there is THAT!
Poor Teddy
He chose to ignore the South because he figured it was a lock for him. It wasn’t. Trump came. Trump stumped. Trump bumped poor ole Teddy of his log.
Ted has not even addressed ILLEGAL immigration. He barely mentions it. Ted can cry about being a purist all he wants. That is why he wrote in favor of the TPP and voted for the TPA
Keep it up Raphael and Ted. We are tired of not being good enough for the DC political class
By the way trump learns. He now refers to slightly less well educated voters
Bite me.
No, seriously.
Cruz should have let DT hang himself on that one. He is going to have to learn when to be silent. Maybe take a hint from GW.
"Highlay" Educated isn't what it use to be...
