Sen. Ted Cruz, Texas Republican, reiterated his pitch on Sunday that if Republicans nominate a moderate candidate to be their presidential nominee in 2016, they’ll lose the White House to the Democrats again.

she wouldnt want to sour the race if it looks like a strong conservative has a shot. Correct. Sarah knows that conservatives would be torn between voting between herself and Ted. Her presence in the race would dilute our vote and likely hand the nomination over to yet another RINO turkey.
If that happens, we're going to see a repeat of 2012, as millions of decent conservatives throw up their hands in disgust.
