Never prouder of Senator Cruz. Stood by his principles this week, though he knew he might upset some potential voters. Could have played the flip-flop; but he didn't, and he won't. "Yet again Cruz demonstrates a level of courage unique among most of the politicians of this cowardly age..."

Cruz (apparently) rejected the premise of the question.

That is the important first step, and he hit them hard with his rejection.

Great answer, great video.

You win by standing firm on your values, not by compromising with evil.

Ted Cruz has been the winner of EVERY week since his campaign began IMHO.

Choices, we all get to make choices. Then we get to live with those choices.

This is an easy choice for me — I will vote for Ted Cruz because he is the only true Conservative in this race.

Cruz is stacking up good weeks.

Meanwhile, Walker evolves (goes to Israel to get his foreign policy chops)... and tries to stay away from the heat. — “ foreign policy chops”? I thought I was going to die laughing when I read that one on FR.

~~Cruz, OR LOSE~~

Good to see that he is keeping up his skills of a championship debater at Harvard and a winning Texas Solicitor General when arguing before the Supreme Court.

Well played. My top three choices are Cruz, Santorum, and Jindal—all ardent social conservatives. Ignore our values and don’t get our votes. It’s that simple.
