Agreed
Here’s Cruz talking about his cocky attitude (in another Liberal site too!)
http://www.npr.org/about-npr/418600824/complete-transcript-senator-ted-cruz-interview-with-npr-news
CRUZ: Well Steve, you’re right that I described [in his book] going to the Bush campaign. So when I was in my late 20s, I left my job, packed up everything I owned and moved to Austin to join the 2000 Bush campaign....
But I do describe how, on the campaign, I found myself slipping into old habits. And I had been very successful â I’d been very successful at school, I had gone to top schools, which no one in my family ever had. I had clerked on the Supreme Court, I had a successful law practice. And when I was on the Bush campaign, I was very cocky, and I paid a price for that....
Heidi is convinced that my personality changed in a very fundamental way in that period. And one of the things I describe in the book, I needed to get my teeth kicked in. I needed not to be as cocky as I had been on the campaign...
You know, one of the great things about our democratic process, the way you get elected, particularly in a grassroots campaign like the one that I ran in Texas and the run â the one that I’m running now nationally is you go to hundreds of IHOPs and Denny’s and VFW halls and you sit down and talk with people. And here’s a real simple rule of thumb. If you’re an arrogant little snot, you ain’t going to win because the people you’re talking to are the salt of the Earth. They’re truck drivers, they’re plumbers, they’re schoolteachers, they’re working men and women....
“To participate in an Iowa Republican or Iowa Democratic caucus, an individual must be registered to vote and be a registered member of the party’s caucus they are attending. The individual must also be 18 years old by the date of the next general election, which in this case is Tuesday, November 8, 2016. That means it is possible for 17 year-olds to participate at their local caucus as long as they will be 18 years old by November 8, 2016. He or she must also reside in the precinct that they are caucusing in. “No Party” registrants, or people who are not registered with either the Democratic or Republican Parties, will have to change their registration to one party or the other in order to caucus.”
Well that was an interesting read.
Many are there to see the big celebrity. I have read article after article how a good sized chunk of the audience starts to stream towards the exits once the me, me, I, I, and the inevitable name calling starts.
For little girls who do NOT engage in sexual congress.
Does Donald Trump know this?
: )
Yes. I know.
I agree.
You’re joking, right?
This “poll” was conducted over the course of three weeks! From January 5th through the 22nd ... The sample size is less than 300! It was conducted on landline ... By college students ... And you think this is some big deal?
YIKES!
BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
What was significant about January 6th, where the divergence occurs between Trump and Cruz? Any guesses?

Good information for everyone!
OTOH...and it's purely anecdotal, the Texans will vote for whom they want to and all may NOT vote for him. It really depends on whom you ask and when.
That is true.
Yes, Ted Cruz’s site doesn’t seem to have one of these. You might send all the Cruz supporters to Trump’s site so the can get directions.
I have watched all of his rallies and the ONLY people who leave early....ARE THE DISRUPTERS, WHO GET THROWN OUT !
Which is exactly what they should do.
I never said he was going to call out the national guard.
Young women did have to have a certificate of vaccination to attend school as I understand it.
