For me its Cruz, or Cruz.

Cruz/Walker, Cruz/Palin, Cruz/Lee, Cruz/pick-someone.

If Cruz isn’t on the ballot, they’ve made a calculation that they don’t need conservatives to win. And good luck with that. Because I’m writing his name in if it isn’t on the ballot.

Too bad you didn’t read the whole article .. instead of assuming the title really meant Cruz was for Amnesty.

Shame on you.

And .. without Cruz’s legal expertise, Loretta Lynch would have been allowed to lie and lie and lie about what she knew about the law.

1.)kill the cost of energy so that electrical production is 1/10 the cost of current cheapest coal electricity.
2.)kill the cost of desalinized water so that desalinized water is cheap enough for irrigating desert lands like california, arizona and the intermountain west.

Most of the cost of desalinized water is the electricity cost, so obviously achieving #1 achieves #2.

I like your thinking.

I gotta tell ya I’m not that impressed with Walker. All of a sudden he’s getting all this hype and the media is just loving him. If Walker thinks Paul Ryan is a budget wizard we are in big trouble.

He’s my choice. If the GOP chooses someone else, they’ll have to win without me.

That does seem to be the attitude of the Cruz supporters.

CRUZ WAS BORN TO AN AMERICAN CITIZEN MOTHER .. IT WOULDN’T HAVE MATTERED IF HE WAS BORN IN CHINA .. HE WOULD STILL BE AN AMERICAN CITIZEN.

FOR YEARS HE HELD DUAL-CITIZENSHIP WITH CANADA. HE HAS SINCE RENOUNCED THAT CANADIAN CITIZENSHIP.

STOP SPREADING RUMORS THAT HE’S A CANADIAN .. HE’S NOT.

The Cruz Team is off to a very inauspicious start here at FR.

First a vocal supporter uses trickery to falsely slam an opponent, then another mocks an opponent’s position, all the while freely admitting he knows nothing about the issue, but continues to mock the opponents supporters.

But the real coup de grace is the supporter who cheers because he believes an opponent of Cruz is Pro-Amnesty. Cheers for Gods sake. He never thinks for a moment that it reveals that his loyalties lie first with his candidate, not America, and that he cares not how America suffers when major candidates hold position which undermine her.

Unless Team Cruz pulls out this feckless team, Cruz is going to have a hard go of it here at FR,

Bush/Cruz?

Cruz is approaching my troika, Palin/Bolton/West, but he must make it clear he will end the “Failure Factory” that is the bureaucracy. Bureaucrats must understand that, while, they may have a job they can’t be fired from, they do not have a right to this job. As Camp Delta is emptied by the Obozo regime, there will be space there for non-compliant bureaucrats.

At the podium, after inauguration, the next President must sign an Executive Order rescinding all EOs since 20 Jan. 2009. He must remind people that think they have rights not granted by law, he has more lawyers than they do. Those lawyers who cannot comply can practice at Camp Delta.

Allen West may be the perfect Vice President to purge the bureaucracy.

Obummer is the perfect example of affirmative action failure, Allen West is the complete opposite where competence and hard work exemplify the man of Martin Luther King’s dream.

Boy, that's for sure. Hillary would be a lot better than anyone else the GOP might choose.

That cuts no ice with me.

The GOP has failed time and again.

Failed
Failed
Failed

Pick a damn Conservative or go down in flames. It's not MY fault. I will NOT support a Liberal. Not any more. The GOP has to earn my vote, and threats of "Hillary" mean squat.

Walker is an amnesty stooge and pro homo. He is a NO GO just as much as Jeb is.

3) “We need to finally secure the border and stop the president’s unconstitutional amnesty.”

AND deport the illegals already here, stop the anchor baby law, no welfare or other benefits for illegals, and punish the illegals' employers. Add those things and then we'll talk, Ted.

Walker doesn’t want to BREAK anything. We have tons of things that need to be disabled or repealed or disappeared.

Walker doesn’t want to fix all the stuff zero has broken to pieces. He doesn’t even have a coherent defense/FP strategy.

I like the guy, but extreme situations call for extreme remedies, and Walker’s just too much of a status-quo guy, not counting Union-busting.

Good response. I wish everyone were so mature.

Instead of spending trillions to enrich Obama cronies since 2008, we might have developed something like cold fusion.

Cruz was ~10pts ahead in name rec and net favorability, according to Nate Silver. Hence the coronation of Walker this week. We’ve sourced every assessment of Walker’s lefty tendencies and are told ‘oh, that was 2013’ or ‘oh, that’s a states’ rights issue’ by the Walker devotees.

I THOUGHT this place was Cruz Country.

Hoping Cruz gets in some more meaningful public appearances before Netenyahu addresses the Joint Congress.

Walker has been instrumental in defunding America’s biggest abortionist Planned Parenthood, signing ultra-sound legislation. Clinics closed in Wisconsin.

Chris Cristie even has been instrumental in defunding America’s biggest abortionist Planned Parenthood, signing ultra-sound legislation. Clinics closed in New Jersey.

Governor Perry in defunding America’s biggest abortionist Planned Parenthood, signing ultra-sound legislation. Clinics closed in Texas.

Senator Cruz, oh, never mind.
