You are correct, they will tailor their questions as assaults against Cruz and he will turn the question one the moderator and destroy their position and advance his cause.
Have you seen his recent answers to the "global warming" BS?
The "reporter" didn't know whether to take a crap or wind his watch {ya gotta be real old to know why anyone would "wind a watch:)"}
It is because “conservative” America forgot God that it was ill able to answer “liberals.”
Liberals aren’t out of sheer outer space. They have taken a good thing — grace and mercy — in God’s plan and bent it to a wicked will, with the dual result of robbing it of its power and making it appear to be odious and thus hateable.
Whatever Cruz’s vices, forgetting God is not among them.
I've been on Free Republic for 17 years, since March 26, 1998!
That means I'm at least 18 years old. :>)
