He may surprise us yet. He beat the establishment candidate by 15 points while being outspent 2 to 1. Being one of the best debaters in the world should keep him from slipping up against half-witted reporters (all).

I said this on another thread. I was at the Cruz New Hampshire event this week and heard him speak about his TX senate campaign. The first thing he did was distribute to his team David Plouffe's book outlining Obama's 2008 presidential campaign. He ran a very grass roots entrepreneurial campaign, going to churches instead of country clubs, giving widespread freedom to local groups. He was outspent 5-6 to 1, had the elites and the party establishment behind Dewhurst, and Cruz still won.

For example, he gave a speech in NY later and the left organized a Twitter hashtag "cruzyoulose" campaign and with no direction from the Cruz team a grassroots "Cruztovictory" campaign not only swamped it, but became the second largest trending hashtag in the world.

> “However, if Sen. Cruz can persuade “establishment voters” of his electability, illustrate his in depth understanding of the separation of powers, communicate how silly it is to compare his tenure in the senate to that of President Obama’s, and continue to stand against the progressive left who are determined to expand the powers of the federal government (particularly the executive branch) he could be America’s last best hope.”

Take them one at a time:

However, if

1) Sen. Cruz can persuade “establishment voters” of his electability,

THE KEY WORD HERE IS “VOTERS” IN “ESTABLISHMENT VOTERS” AND NOT JUST “ESTABLISHMENT”. WHAT ESTABLISHMENT VOTERS FOLLOW IS THE ESTABLISHMENT ‘HERD’ LED BY THE ESTABLISHMENT WHICH IS ALL ABOUT WHO HAS THE CASH OR CONTROL OF IT.

BONNIE PRINCE JEB HAS THE CASH AND CONTROL OF IT. BUT TED CRUZ HAS THE BASE AND GRASSROOTS WHICH CAN RAISE A LOT OF CASH IN A FLASH. ONCE THE CASH BONA FIDES OF THE CRUZ CAMPAIGN ARE ESTABLISHED, THEN THE ESTABLISHED ORDER SLOWLY BEGINS TO DISSOLVE AND MIX WITH THE CRUZ CAMPAIGN. THIS IS A FLASHPOINT IN THE PROCESS THAT REQUIRES DILIGENCE BECAUSE THE ESTABLISHED ORDER, ONCE IT BEGINS TO FOLD IN WITH ITS OPPOSITION (CRUZ) WILL ATTEMPT TO TAKE CONTROL FROM WITHIN. THE PRINCIPLES AND PROTOCOLS OF THE CRUZ CAMPAIGN MUST KEEP THESE INFILTRATORS FIRMLY IN LINE.

2) illustrate his in depth understanding of the separation of powers,

TED CRUZ DOES THIS BETTER THAN ANYONE. HE IS A GREAT TEACHER OF THE CONSTITUTION TO THE AMERICAN VOTERS WHO HUNGER TO UNDERSTAND WHAT THIS COUNTRY IS ALL ABOUT AND WHAT MAKES IT EXCEPTIONAL.

3) communicate how silly it is to compare his tenure in the senate to that of President Obama’s,

TED CRUZ WILL NOT DO THIS. HIS BASE OF SUPPORTERS WILL DO IT FOR HIM.

4) and continue to stand against the progressive left who are determined to expand the powers of the federal government (particularly the executive branch)

THIS GOES BACK TO 2) ABOVE.

he could be America’s last best hope.

HE WON’T BE AMERICA’S LAST BEST HOPE. BUT HE IS WHAT AMERICA NEEDS RIGHT NOW AT THIS TIME IN ITS HISTORY.

TED CRUZ IS THE CAPTAIN THAT WILL RIGHT THE SINKING SHIP THAT IS AMERICA. OTHERS THAT COME AFTER HIM WILL HAVE A SEAWORTHY SHIP TO RUN THANKS TO TED CRUZ AND HIS POLITICAL FORCES.

I love his honestly. All the other candidates are playing pussy foot, “I am forming an exploratory campaign to see how much money everyone will give me,” Bush. I love the way he just came out and said, I am running!

Watch the “ if you can’t beat him join him “ crowd jump on the band wagon.

Sooner or later the MSM ( more Satan media ) will finally figure out that they can’t beat down Ted Cruz and his supporters and will tone down their lying rhetoric and resort to something else, like ignoring him.

The only thing worse than establishment politicians are establishment voters that habitually fill in the ballot for their party candidate no matter how many promises he or she breaks.

What's worse is voting for the Establishment candidate in the PRIMARY, because he's supposedly "more electable" in the general.

My feelings tell me that Ted Cruz is the "Real Seal."

The question remains?... How do you get someone like Cruz ELECTED who will DO GOOD on behalf of America and restore Constitutional law?

Anyone speaking "truth to power", such as Cruz, is immediately and relentlessly hammered, LABELED, and minimized by LIBERALS and the LIBERAL MSM.

There has to be something MORE than just "prayer."
