“. . . does cruz ever talk about why people should vote for him? Has he been up front on any issues?”

I very much like the positions Cruz has taken on the issues. He has been almost completely consistent on those issues, and he has been an articulate advocate for conservative positions. I know there are those who have cherry picked single positions taken in the course of Senate debate (and taken those out of context) to show that he’s not 100% consistent, but he has been one of the top three conservatives in the US Senate since he was elected.

I’m still voting Trump because (1) I don’t trust the establishment if the convention goes past the first ballot, and (2) I consider Trump more electable. However, Cruz would be an excellent and conservative president if he could win.

Cruz and Trump agree far more than 80% of the time (see my tagline from Ronald Reagan). They should be friends and allies, and we should treat both of them as such.

Wow. Just wow.

It’s been awhile since I have seen such a great comment on FR concerning the nomination/election.

Now if someone could get this message to Trump and Cruz we will have hope of salvaging the Republic.

Great post!!

I personally prefer Cruz but I will gladly pull the lever for Trump.

What the hell has happened to my beloved FreeRepublic?

Here's a pic of Cruz sucking up to Trump at Trump Towers. Trump was way ahead in the polls and Cruz initiated the visit. He comes across as a sneaky little weasel to me. some_text
