The fanatical right, eh? They have no idea...
“This destiny does not tire, nor can it be broken; its mantle of strength descends upon those in its service”
— Francis Parker Yockey
Fanatical? Why? Cuz we can still tell the difference between a boy and a girl? Because we want our borders protected and our laws respected? Because we think family means what it has always meant and is the building block of society? Because we do not favor dismembering babies and selling their body parts?
“Fanatical right?” Huh? Most conservatives I know think Trump is a Dem stalking horse, because he’s virtually a parody candidate...every Dem’s caricature of a crude, fat, wealthy, misogynist and xenophobic ignoramus Republican come to life.
That said, Cruz alienated a lot of people because he came across as shrill and unproductive - that is, good at objecting, but not good at coming out with a result. I think he has definitely developed, however, and can reach more people now.
:sigh:
Liberals simply cannot stay away from nasty slander. I think they find it intoxicating.
stopped reading at “fanatical right” in the headline.
Well, if Salon and Heather Digby Parton think Cruz is an extremist.....he must be doing something right.
Salon.
Fanatiical right.
Need one read more?
Oh welll, they could have added global warming to complete a triad of idiocy.
Trump has been really rich his whole life. he strikes me as the kind of guy who has never really had anyone stand up to him because of his wealth and because the people he surrounds himself with want access to that wealth (employees, wives, children, etc.) thus he speaks to others in ways that most people can’t get away with speaking. with poverty comes humility.
truly part of the 1%. truly lives a life with experiences far removed from yours and mine. i don’t hate him, but i am worried that he has so many potential GOP voters bamboozled thus far.
wanna see proof? just watch how many people reply on this thread to tell me how wrong i am about that last sentence. ;)
my preferred ticket would be “Cruz/Palin ‘16”
LOL! The fanatical right.
I love Ted Cruz and I hope Trump picks him as a running mate but I don’t think he’s getting enough traction to win the general election.
They know that THEY will never be called on it by the PC police.
“Most conservatives I know think Trump is a Dem stalking horse, because he’s virtually a parody candidate...”
I suppose that is why is up to 40% in the polls.
You are aware that Cruz leads EVERYBODY in hard money fundraising, including John Ellis Bush, right? That he is second only to Bush in soft money? That he has campaign teams in more states than anyone else?
Cruz denounces Boehner and McConnel as liars. Cruz meets with Trump. Cruz agrees with Trump in a low-key way.
Trump drops out. Cruz has been echoing Trump for months. But with class. And he has gravitas, political experience, and solid constitutional beliefs.
Cruz sails to the nomination. And the win.
For someone “winning,” I fail to see how Ted’s continued slippage in the polls is a victory.
