Politics is a dirty game. No politician is 100% on “your” side, and the left understands this.
If we want to say that Ted’s a terrible awful irredeemable swamp creature, the next question is “compared to what?”
I don’t see an immediately better option from my perch here in Texas.
You have someone specifically in mind?
How bad can it get? Ya got millions of people in TX and Cruz is your best option?
Gezzz..
I've voted a straight Republican ticket my entire life. Over 40 years of voting. Never voted for a Democrat. Ever.
I voted for George W. Bush. Felt bad about it, but I did it.
I voted for McCain. Felt bad about it, but I did it.
I voted for Romney. Felt bad about it, but I did it.
It's gotten me nowhere. And the GOP is CLEARLY not going to fight for honest elections.
I'm tired of voting for the lesser of two evils. I just won't do it any more. All done. I dislike Cruz. I think he is deeply untruthworthy and I will not vote for him.
You can make your own choice. But the GOP does not "own" me and I am not required to vote for their candidate. If I don't like their candidate, I'm out.
