Anyone who goes into a debate with Ted Cruz, goes unarmed.

[St_Thomas_Aquinas]

Warren/Cruz, Cruz takes 49 states. There’s always one in the crowd.

[CPT Clay]

Abrasive manner?

[Carthego delenda est]

“....Americans’ attitudes tend to the political left, even if they often conflict with what Americans say and how they vote.”

So this author says Americans’ are actually leftist even though what they say and how they vote says otherwise. Friggin moron.

[Personal Responsibility]

I love how the author answers the question of big vs small government by saying “small but...” and then lays out a few things that a government could do while implying “anyone in favor of these things really wants a big government” as if those things are where the bloat comes from.

[RetiredTexasVet]

Let’s see. A compassionate NWO communist - Benghazi Clinton or a Stalinist NWO communist - Bernie Sanders or an intellectual elite NWO communist - Lizzie Warren or an autocratic egocentric NWO communist - O’Malley or an all around a$$ NWO communist - Schummer or finally one LSD shot too many NWO communist - Moonbeam Brown ..... just so many choices, all bad!!!!

[DoughtyOne]

...but his hardcore ideology and abrasive manner make him unlikely to be chosen by calmer heads closer to the center of the party.

Hmmm, I sure wonder who the stealth Conservative pretender is going to be. Actually, that has become crystal clear.

The GOPe is here and working their little fingers to the bone. Couldn't be more obvious.

He's lying.

[Vermont Lt]

I cannot imagine, for the life of me, how Elizabeth Warren is qualified for President.

Sure, she can WANT to be President. That’s fine. People can want what they want. But she is not the least bit qualified. I think we need only remind the public what a less-than-one-term senator has done for us and to us over the past six years.

The general American public must be a lot more stupid than I thought.

[C210N]

The ‘Rats will always put up the leftmost leftist.

It would be nice for once if the GOP can resist putting up their own leftist, and go with a Centrist like Cruz.

That’s right, Cruz... can’t be any more centrist than him.

[Slyfox]

Picture it. This lady debating the best debater Princeton has produced since our Founding Fathers (IMO).

Ted Cruz knows how to debate WITHOUT NOTES and without tremendous prep-work, and he can debate both sides of an argument.

Plus, he is actually nice as he does it.

Most people can't argue without getting all hot and bothered.

I would rather enjoy a Cruz-Warren debate, or anyone else the libs can line up.

Who wants to see this every day on TV, cussing out every White male in America.

[Theodore R.]

Many in early 1968 thought it would be RFK v. Rockefeller. I’m still thinking Jebbie will be HRC’s coronated “challenger”, as I don’t think Republican primary voters are capable of picking anyone good, based on their long-term track record.

[Gator113]

“..... hardcore ideology and abrasive manner...”

This POS homosexual loving lib should meet me. LOL

[Taxman]

Do you suppose that “. . . his hardcore ideology and abrasive manner. . . .” are what the American people like about Senator Cruz?

We Conservatives have been wandering in the LIEberal desert long enough!

We are glad that a Real Conservative with a “. . . hardcore ideology and abrasive manner. . . .” has stepped up to the plate to snatch America back FRom the abyss of LIEberal tyranny!

BRING IT ON!

[Ditter]

Sic’em Ted!

[Svartalfiar]

Big government versus small government? Small government, of course. But we like the security, stability and benefits that result from the collective energy of a government that provides services beyond the capacity of private enterprise. We like having police officers and firefighters, good schools and the most powerful military in the world. We like good highways, and we like being able to drink water out of any tap in the U.S. without having to worry about contracting cholera.

Yes, we like the security, stability, and benefits that come from government. Specifically, it's role in the national defense and enforcing contracts.
- But police and firefighters are a city/county level function. The only federal ones are MPs/military firefighters, and a few FBI/CIA "police". The FedGov shouldn't be involved in that role.
- Good schools? Private schools provide a much better education, at comparable/lower costs than many states spend on their public schools. Also, at best this could be considered a state-level issue, the FedGov again shouldn't be involved at all.
- Powerful military? Yes, one of the few things the Fed should do. But I really think we could have a much cheaper/better military by paring down the active duty and utilizing the Guard a lot more.
- Good highways? Again, mainly state-level. Get the Fed out of highway funding, and I bet the states would be a lot better on their own.
- Tap water? That's a city-level function (sometimes county). I don;t think the Feds really even are much involved nowadays anyway.

Elizabeth Warren v. Ted Cruz

Next up: The Ipecac Ribeye Face-Off!

[CSM]

This author is a dilusional fool! That said, a Cruz v Warren ticket would likely be the best thing that could happen to this Republic.

“We like having police officers...”

Do you? If so, then the left’s treatment of police officers leaves a lot to be desired.

“good schools”

Yet the left’s policies are making them worse and worse.

“and the most powerful military in the world.”

Then why on earth do your policies ALWAYS weaken the military?

“We like good highways,”

Then why are they continuing to “crumble” after almost constant harping about it?

“and we like being able to drink water out of any tap in the U.S. without having to worry about contracting cholera.”

Yet, the EPA tells us that everything is too dirty to consume!

You lefties (author) would be comical if you weren’t so dangerous.....
