It seems to me the only principled reason to be a Republican would be to stop, thwart and defeat Leftist ideas you’re opposed to. Therefore, what better standard by which to judge Republican presidential candidates than by who is the most committed to actually defeating the opposition?
And who might that candidate be in 2016? Well, according to the man from whom much of today’s conservative multimedia empire originates, that candidate is Ted Cruz.
“If you’re looking for the Republican candidate who is the most steadfastly opposed to liberalism, whose agenda is oriented towards stopping it, thwarting it, and defeating it – it’s Ted Cruz,” Mr. Limbaugh recently said on his popular radio program.
Let the record show that as usual, Rush is right.
In fact, I challenge anybody reading this to make an objective case there is a more principled candidate in the race than Mr. Cruz — because you can’t. I also work for an organization called Conservative Review, which gives regularly scheduled proctology exams to the records of politicians by charting how they vote on a full spectrum of conservative issues via our “liberty scorecard.” Mr. Cruz currently has our second-highest score at 96 percent, which is second only to Mike Lee.
Except Mr. Cruz does not just settle for voting the right way when it’s all said and done, but he fights back on our behalf against the corruption infesting Washington as well as the “losership” of the Republican Party.

Here is the bottom line: If someone doesn’t have a proven history of fighting the corruption in Washington before getting elected, that probably means they’re unlikely to do it after they reach the White House.

Trump can’t win, and shows no sign that he wishes to.

It’s funny and hypocritical that back in 2008 many here said that Fred Thompson was to old at 65 at that time, but yet ? We have many here supporting Donald Trump Who is near 70 years old or at 70 but no one is saying that he is to old.
Same thing applies to Mitt Romney.
I guess the old double standard is more equal to other people than others.

It is highly unlikely that any of your posts will ever engender anything you consider intelligent.
Using obama as your standard of intelligence casts you forever with a lunch box with your name on it, on down to undies with your name on them.

Trump has been a gun grabber all of his adult life, until this spring.
Be a fool for the fool if you wish.

Donald knows; that’s why he turns to Cruz to learn what his position should be.

We actually had better, more intelligent trolls than you in ‘99 - 2000.
But they’re gone.
It takes a while to use all the souvenir pens while he signs it.

Cruz has already beat a billionaire to get to the senate.

I know you are, but what am I?
No, with Jim’s zot canon.
“Trump’s a yellow dot on the 2nd Amendment “
NO, he is not. You obviously do not know Trumps position.
