Rubio/Bushes are toast. This contest is between Trump vs Cruz. A two man race.

The huckster is clearly for Trump, wearing Trump tie and all. The huckster wants to take out Cruz in Iowa. This is a proxy war, but the attacks are only one-way for now. Trump is using his lapdogs like huckster to attack Cruz. In the meantime, Cruz is not fighting back.

Cruz needs to fight back.

We all wondered why they were in the race.

Many of us knew. It wasn’t to win but to prevent someone else from
winning.

Both the Huckster and Santorum are frauds.

Huckster = Trump’s lapdog.

Lame....Trump doesn't have time for a loser like Huckabee. Trump abhors PAC's and they are certainly proving they are awful.

Huckabee may really believe Cruz has shifted, but he is wrong. I knew it all along. Cruz has had the same position from the start. i prefer Huckabee,s position on marriage, but I do not respect his ineptness at researching the facts. Cruz has not budged.

The core definition of one man, one woman marriage has been a federal issue since Utah joined the union and was required to dump polygamy. Allowing some states to have polygamy, as with homo marriage, only delays the federalization because of the full faith and credit clause.

The Huckster is now playing for a cabinet position in the Jebito or Kid Marco administration. Who’s the real phony Mikey?

Huckabee risks doing serious damage to his image if he pursues it. I know most FReepers are not fans of his already, but he does have a good reputation with a segment of evangelicals. Going after Cruz is not a wise move on his part.

Whomever the two hyenas are working for, the best thing Cruz can do is, as the bible says, heap hot coals on their heads, and continue to campaign as he has, only louder.

I do not think the republican primary voter is so stupid as to be played the fool again. I believe they know these two clowns are playing games.

Cruz should be careful not get down into the slop with them.

The huckster is clearly Trump’s lapdog. Did you miss where he was praising Trump and wearing his tie? It was so obvious.

The only threat to Trump is Cruz and the lapdogs know it. Trump does not need PACs given that he has trained a couple of lapdogs currently running and has a big/slick mouth. If all fails, he has enough of his own money to invest in his bid.

Huckster fails at kissing ass.

Trump ain't got time for that loser.

Sounds like a good strategy to take down Cruz. Can’t blame them for trying. Who’s behind the super-PAC? Could be the GOPe but it’s Trump who would likely benefit most from Cruz’ demise.

If you’re a Conservative, you don’t attack ally Conservatives and accuse them of not being pure. You prove to voters they’re you’re a better Conservative by arguments and how effective you are at attacking the opposition. Attacking a Conservative and not Liberal/Moderate/Establishment Republicans only prove that they’re a fake Conservative

You mean a forgettable part of the debate from 4 months ago?

“The only threat to Trump is Cruz and the lapdogs know it. Trump does not need PACs given that he has trained a couple of lapdogs currently running and has a big/slick mouth.”

Cruz people are going to have a mental breakdown by March. They see a conspiracy behind every blade of grass.

“Trump ain’t got time for that loser.”

Well, loser or not, he is a Trump’s lapdog. Who is benefiting from taking Cruz down in Iowa? Surely Trump. This is a proxy war. Cruz needs to wake up.

This is what bother me about these attack at Cruz from people like Rubio and Rand. They think they get more support by pealing Conservatives from the leading Conservative by attacking him. That sound like Liberal consultant approach

They’re trying to sway evangelical voters. The question is why, since neither has a snowballs chance in hell of winning squat.

This is the same underhanded strategy the GOPe has been playing on conservatives and their candidates for decades now.

And someone needs to call them out on it.

Let Nick@Ntryan.com know what you think of his PAC’s “clever” attack on Cruz.

Peace,

Interestingly enough there is at least one ethanol industry bigwig saying that Ted Cruz is right about ending the subsidies and renewable fuel standards.
