What nonsense reporting this is. To leave Cruz out when it was obvious that Cruz was the star in Iowa is deliberate manipulation.
The left wants Cruz marginalized.
Won’t work.
Hes gotta get elected first....then, youll see the real Scott Walker....Obama is a prime example...ran center...governed left. This guy is our only true hope, i firmly believe that.
...”The left wants Cruz marginalized....Won’t work”...
I tend to think Cruz will step up and be seen and heard when he chooses to do so....he’s being careful to time things. It’s known the earlier you step up the media will knock you out. Rommey’s out....more will follow.
Cruz doesn’t need to step out there now...I like his style and how he’s working this....he’ll do fine no matter what IMO.
But it's still to early for me to back any candidate; I'm going to wait and watch and choose wisely.
...Scott Walker....”if there is a way to set up a process so that you ‘enable’ people to come in’.... and have a legal ‘pathway’ to do that, that’s something ‘we’ve got to embrace’”....
How do you like his choice of leftist words.....?????
Cruz stepped up and out in Iowa and he won the crowds over to him big time.
Cruz is not afraid to step up. It’s the leftist press that’s afraid to report his stepping up. They don’t want to give any press because no matter how they write it he’s able to get his message across and make them look bad for trying to smear him. That’s what Reagan did so well.
Walker is good but the poll is just about meaningless at this point. The lead is with 15%, way too early. They react to each person who speaks out there.
Heck, he stood up to the organized crime syndicate known as Unions!
Walker in 2015 reminds me of Paul Ryan in 2012. So many posters here on FR were swooning all over him and we kept telling them he’s a RINO/dingbat and they refused to believe it.
Now they know better.
Yep. It's also why none of us needs to get worked up into a lather during the vetting process. All of the candidates' true positions and records on the issues will unfold as the months roll on.
I'm already seeing firefights breaking out around here, and no one's even declared yet.
And hopefully win.
Harsh it, brother. Some folks around here need a strong dose of tough love.
Sarah is where we need her now, promoting strong young conservative candidates.
Oh I so feel that same way too naps. THIS IS THE GUY. This is the guy.
...”It’s the leftist press that’s afraid to report his stepping up.”...
No it’s not ‘they’re afraid’....the press isn’t afraid to do what they want, make no mistake about that. They do not bend to any but who rule them.
Cruz can handle this his own way...after all he’s been moving about throughout Congress effectively...I suspect he can handle the media in his own good time...and that..how to get himself center stage.
But it's still to early for me to back any candidate; I'm going to wait and watch and choose wisely.
That's the best course, in any event.
But there is one additional consideration that I would submit for your check list: a will of steel.
Turning this country -- and its federal government -- around will require a will of steel. The Democrats, their media lapdogs, the Republican establishment will all fight the implementation of conservativism tooth and nail.
Whomever we elect has got to be somebody who can stand up to the storm and see it through. In classic terms, we need an ideologue, not a pragmatist.
True, but he does support a 'pathway to citizenship', which in my book is pretty much the same thing.
For my money, Walker just doesn't get that we don't need ANY immigration at this point. In fact, there ought to be a twenty-five year moratorium on ALL immigration, in order to allow the millions already here to assimilate into our culture, instead of multiculturizing into miniature foreign countries. Like they're doing right now.
Not to mention the fact that there are over 90 Million able-bodied Americans out of work. I ask you - what logical and beneficial purpose can there possibly be for admitting even more foreigners to America at this time?
Sorry, but Walker's off base on his immigration position.
I admit I’m with Cruz....but if I wasn’t I would not be for Walker. I’d likely even vote for Trump over Walker! LoL....seriously.
Done did that. His name is Ted. Ted Cruz.
Done.
Cruz or Lose.
