According to numerous national media reports, Senator Ted Cruz is moments away from announcing Carly Fiorina as his running mate.The transparency of intent is brutally obvious.
Cruz is desperate; all current indications coming out of Indiana do not look well for his ongoing hail-Mary chances. The Kasich/Cruz deal to split up states in a futile effort to block Donald Trump is backfiring. Ted Cruz authenticity and likability continue to plummet. The more Ted talks, the less people like him. He needs a reset, fast.
Enter Carly Fiorina, the consummate DC cocktail class republican. A failed corporate CEO who was jettisoned from the private sector for her inept and inadequate skills as a company officer never to be hired again by any company. Fiorinas only hope at retention of influence and affluence was a shift to the public sector.

Cruz To Name Homewrecker As Running Mate
I think Rinse and Repeat is going into the convention with two stories written: one if Trump already has the delegates, which is, “See the system works, business as usual, now let’s elect RINOs,” and the other, if Trump doesn’t, to ensure he doesn’t get the nomination.
Lyin’ Ted is and has always been pure Bushie Establishment.
His only agenda has been to stop the people’s choice (via Alinsky rules) BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY.
His mask is off and all can see he’s Establishment puppet and, with Goldman-Sachs Heidi, pushing NO BORDERS for the North American Union goal.
Interesting interview ... more at link.

Politics is a blood sport: Roger Stone on his CNN ban, the real Donald Trump and the billionaires scheme to lure delegates
The political provocateur and former Trump aide vows to Salon that Trump will not be derailed at the convention
EXCERPT
We learned this week that Ted Cruz and John Kasich reached some sort of agreement to join forces in order to block Trump from clinching the nomination. The deal, if we can call it that, appears to have collapsed before the first primary was held. But its rather telling that they even considered this. Thoughts?
This is not without historical precedent either. Frankly Ronald Reagan and Nelson Rockefeller had a backdoor conversation together closely to try to block Richard Nixons ascendancy on the first ballot in 1968. In 1964, Rockefeller, George Romney and Scranton banded together to try to stop Goldwater, so its not uncommon. In this case, however, I think it just underlines the extent to which Ted Cruz is now the establishment candidate. He is now aligned with the most liberal candidate in the race in an effort to stop the outsider in this race. Cruz tries to position himself as an outsider in this race, but hes the candidate of Jeb and Neil Bush. Hes the candidate of Mitt Romney. Hes the candidate of Wall Street and Goldman Sachs. Hes the candidate of the oil and gas industry.
How far are you willing to go to stop Cruz, Kasich and the establishment from usurping Trump at the convention? Youve suggested that citizens ought to visit delegates at their hotels in Cleveland in order to, what, pressure them in person?
We addressed this, if its not clear. The Hotel that are used by each state delegation will be publicly known. Without the room numbers, you can locate your delegates, you can use the house phone, you can try leave messages for them. The idea is to meet your representatives and ask them to take the pledge. If they dont want to take the pledge, thats fine, this isnt about arguing. This is about taking a list of those delegates who dont want to take a voluntary pledge and give them to the media, so they can be asked why did the votes of the people not matter? Why are you not respecting the will of the voters in your state. Thats the point of this entire exercise. Those Trojan Horse delegates are where the real danger to Trump could lie, in some kind of tricky maneuver here to hijack this convention from Trump.
But why encourage people to physically show up at these hotels, especially in this polarized climate and in light of the violence weve already seen?
Lobbying ones delegates has happened since time immemorial whenever Republican National Conventions are held. Flooding the city with your reporters to produce a quarters to lobby delegates is a part of this process. No, were not suggesting anybody punch anybody out. Were talking about a dialogue. Were entitled to a dialogue focusing on the Trump delegates themselves.
Wouldn’t that be the Peter Principle rather than Parkinson’s Law?
Either way, thanks for the education. You made me look up Parkinson’s Law. :^)
That’s about the size of it. Suicide by crazy.

When this is over, his wife will leave him.She has to. Her career in investment banking is probably already on the ropes because of him.

you are right about comebacks. History is full of them.
dont know if they are the norm or night, or if he’s all there in the head, though.
Rubio might just as well have stayed in the race too for that matter, but he saw the insanity of it.
ted needs someone who really cares about him, and not his crazy dad or women who are somehow blindly in lvoe with him to talk to him
