This is not intended as snark. Does Cruz currently have a 50 state or any numbered state ... strategy? Does he have offices in the first 5 primary states to get out votes or to manage the caucus states?

I ask because how do any of the R candidates hope to get their message out to voters w/o some help from the ‘establishment’ if they don’t have a strong ground game planned and ready to execute?

Hey...I’m not a fan of what has happened to the R’s ... not even close to being a fan. I just don’t see how Cruz can cut thru the clutter of MSM attacks ... not to mention attacks by other R’s.

If he can win, he can win, if he can’t, he can’t.

I am going to support him either way, because it does not matter to me at all if the GOP wins the presidential election or not.

It matters to me if an American loving honest conservative wins a whole lot, so that’s why I am going to support him.

If the rest of the GOP doesn’t get on board, then so be it, but I won’t be getting on their boat either, that’s for sure.

Have you been paying attention AT ALL to what Cruz has been saying?

He is fighting the good fight against the GOP-E. The last group he is going to turn to is the GOP-E! His is a grass-roots effort just like Reagan's was.

And yes, I am sure he has a 50-state effort plan. The man is simply head-and-shoulders in terms of fidelity to principle AND Intelligence where the other announced and potential POTUS candidates are concerned.

Don't be a Concern TROLL!

Ted Cruz will have a strong campaign in Iowa. He has notable backing from outspoken Christian conservatives like Steve Deace (otherwise a likely Huckabee supporter), and he also has a number of prominent supporters among libertarian-leaning GOPers, and even from the under-appreciated Congressman Rod Blum, and former aide to Cong. Steve King, Bryan English.

For all of your questions, ask yourself, what did Reagan do? Because Reagan faced exactly the same hurdles you have mentioned.

A 50 state plan takes lots of money. You do that by not avoiding fundraisers for useless votes.

Just saying.....

You’re criticizing him for not voting and for putting in place the funding for a plan that avoiding a useless vote allows. You’re like the MSM, criticizing our guys no matter what they do.
