Why I’m Rooting for Ted Cruz to Win Iowa and New Hampshire
The Nation ^ | January 22, 2016 | Leslie Savan

Posted on 01/24/2016 7:15:08 AM PST by detective

I'll put it out there-I'm rooting for Ted Cruz to win Iowa and New Hampshire and anywhere else he can do damage to Trump before the Joe McCarthy lookalike self-immolates in a bonfire of biofuel, birth certificates, and Goldman Sachs loans.

Cruz, the only GOP candidate to come close to Trump in the polls, is in a bad way. Sarah Palin may have endorsed Trump in gibberish, but popular Iowa Governor Terry Branstad denounced Cruz for opposing ethanol subsidies in plain Iowa greedlish, and constitutional lawyers are raising serious questions about whether the Canadian-born senator is eligible to become president. And now, in a kind of SwiftChurching, accusations are flying that Cruz is a "phony" Christian.

Yep, the GOPe is down to ONE LAST PRAYER in trying to stop Trump - which is support Cruz until Cruz can knock out Trump, then DUMP ALL OVER CRUZ, so that a ‘mainstream’ Republican can run.

If I were Cruz, I wouldn’t trust that bunch for a moment.

How did that work out?

I swear that is my favorite. I laugh every time I see it because it’s so spot on.

Apparently one of the mods didn't like it this morning, probably due to some Trump-hater whining about it.

Glad you enjoyed it while it was there.

Beck’s endorsement is likely far worse.

Obviously the Mods do not share your amusement.


Which seems a bit odd, since they never had any problems with it in the past.

Let's try a newer one:

You trying to get me zotted or something?

It was the graphic of Gary Busey clanging the dinner bell, maybe the mod doesn't like Gary Busey.

The Daily Stormer has endorsed Trump

"With Ted Cruz, you lose.
Cuban? Canadian? The only thing we know for sure is he's not American.
It's all stitched-up now.
The Trump remains utterly unstumped."

Excellent dream. It is going to take something like that to save our country. I am old and losing confidence that our country has much of a good future.

When half of the country wants obama, Hillary or Bernie and can't see where those people will take us, things are looking pretty hopeless.

“Yep, the GOPe is down to ONE LAST PRAYER in trying to stop Trump - which is support Cruz”

“That’s why I’m rooting for Cruz. Hillary could beat him with ease, while the Beltway illusion—that she’d trample Trump—is crumbling more every day. The farce is with him.

The author, Leslie Savan, appears to be a hillary supporter, not GOP-e, and believes Cruz would be easier to beat than Trump. I believe Cruz would beat hillary and that if Trump were the nominee we would still be in trouble as acountry
