Starting the drum beats to blame conservatives. I don’t think the RINOs care if Hillary wins...so saying things that are not supportive of R candidates is not the issue with them. The issue is to fix blame somewhere else.

Wishful thinking from Linda Graham: if Trump is the nominee, Linda will vote for Hillary, therefore she expects Hillary to win.

I might have agreed with him until Trump won the ISIS Primary the other day.

“Can this guy just possibly STFU and go away!”

When did you ever know a nagging woman to STFU?

It is petty trump ginning it up. He knew before his tweet Cruz had nothing to do with it. Trump has made a schoolyard game out of this cycle from the start. Someone should disable the tweet function. Can’t make him an adult though, he still tries to paint Cruz as a liar while it is he himself who lies more and bigger than Hillary.

“What any Cruz supporter knows about their candidate.”

Yes, and when you look at the daily results of the FR Caucus, you see that there are still between 25 and 40 “diehards” here (on any given day) that ignore this reality and continue to “Vote Cruz.” I guess the only consolation is that they are probably all Open Borders Texicans supporting their “favorite Canadian-transplant son.”

Graham sure gets a lot of media attention for a candidate who could barely poll ahead of Gillmore in the primaries. You don't see other drop-out candidates (with the exception of GOP royalty Jeb Bush) get their supposed expert opinions quoted so often, do you? How often does anyone see also-rans Bobby Jindal or Rand Paul quoted as some sort of kingmakers?

The reason for is that Linda Graham is the sort of Republican the liberal media can respect and support.

Does your stupid little graphic mean that people are right when they say Trump is racist because David Duke endorsed him?

Trump disavowed Duke. Cruz has embraced Neil and Jeb Bush, Mitt Romney and Linda Graham.

Grahamnesty the RINO wants the Wicked Witch to win, so he is talking Republican hopes of winning. He’s a Tokyo Rose.

well think of this

Now that this GOPe cabal of oligarchs has been revealed, and the GOP shown to be so corrupt as to openly plot “let them eat cake” for the voters, they can all be prepared to be looking over their shoulders at reelection time

A big army of former republicans will be coming for them at election time, not with pitchforks but with ballots issued to INDEPENDENTS or even DEMOCRATS. Yes some of us may join the democrat party, but will vote as we choose, with no loyalty to any party whatsoever, if party affiliation becomes only a rote step in getting into the voting booth. How do 20-30 million loose cannon voters sound to both parties? Or even just 10 million of us? (8 million have already voted so far for Trump in the primaries)

So About right?

As God is our witness, another Bush will never be elected to national office. Linda will go DOWN and every member of nevertrump: ditto

With Hillary or Slow Joe as president, for which we will blame the establishment, NOT TRUMP, we will sure as hell need a conservative House and Senate

and we sure as hell now know who is NOT on the side of the people.

And Trump will sure know better how to be more selective which political candidates he backs financially

This guy is an utter POS. I’m not a Cruz guy, but to come out and “endorse” someone and then say, “yeah, but he’ll lose,” is just disgusting.

The GOP establishment is so out of touch. They think "well we all have worked with Hillary for years as First Lady and as Senator and SecState and we all love her. She'll be tough to beat with that resume!"

They have no idea what America really thinks of Hillary. Voting for her is like kissing your sister that you don't get along with. "Do I have to? Oh hell, let's get it over with quickly". There is absolutely no excitement about her at all. She is eminently beatable with a decent candidate.

The GOPe hates decent candidates though, they'd rather put up a nice guy who will say Hillary's a swell gal and would make a fine President but gee, you ought to vote for me anyway. You know, the winning strategy they employed in 2008 and 2012.

We enjoy Lindsey Graham at our house when he is on TV.. We think he is very funny!
He always looks like he’s sucking on a lemon or something.
He’s really funny.
