Nope.

Once they find out it was Cruz, they then gush that it isn’t a big deal, or that it’s a brilliant idea.

That strikes me as a very weird “for show” picture. Fake.

What wife doesn’t kiss her husband?

me too.

it’s a horrible decision to have to make but I’ll vote for him and pray he has a change of heart.

His justice department will either be fighting for or against states’ ability to make their own abortion laws.

I’m hoping in the end, that he saves more unborn lives than hillary would have.

that shouldn’t be hard to do.

“This is supposedly to encourage more voters to participate. You would think that the Trump worshipers would support such a purpose”

I wish I had a bag of clothes to toss into that spin cycle.

Hey Teddy, ask yourself, ‘What would Jesus send to voters?’.

Small town “social conservative” values on display. Cruz just put the final ugly nail in the cheap coffin of that cause.

These are private letters now made public by trumpetsrs.

****************

Yep this has been used in other states before. But that
doesn’t make it nessacarily kosher.
It’s not illegal, is data anyone can go search for and find, but I’m not sure it’s wise
for a campaign to do that while trying to entice voter support.

“Play on but I’m not played by this”

No. You are just rationalizing it, and making excuses.

“The only folks posting these letters to the Internet are trump supporters.

These are private letters now made public by trumpetsrs.

BTW, it’s not a straw man argument. estimates are that FOURTEEN THOUSAND are killed as a result of this each year. yeah, i’m voting for trump. dont have a choice in the generals. but get some guts trumpsters and admit that those lives are the price you’re willing to pay to get your country back.

If your number is correct, this means that about 1.4% of abortions are claimed in regard to rape and incest.

I am willing to accept saving 98.6% of babies by accepting this distinction.

In 2014, this means that 963,322 babies would have been saved.

It appears you are arguing that we should sacrifice 963,322 babies a year to be 100% pure?

Look, folks this election might be a turning point in America history. I believe it will be. Three very important things need to happen this election cycle for that change to happen, IMHO.

Here they are, The Republican Establishmnnt RINO & the Democrat party need to be totally wiped out and destroyed politically by American voters. And......the American print & TV media needs to also be destroyed and restructured to present the news in truthful, balanced and fair fashion. We are now controlled as if we were a closed society like the NAZIs, the Facists & The Communists. The American people do not count for anything in our government or society. Only the power brokers, crooked politicians, lobbyists get goodies with their with illegal bribes, or money flow to ill advised, criminal politicians of both major parties!!!

We need a revolution, folks...an electorial revolution. There is only one candidate that can lead the American people further on, back to our lost greatness and that is Donald J. Trump!!! If Trump fails.....this country is just about done,...ya know toast...no, probably burnt toast!!! Iowa.....vote carefully tomorrow, you are voting for the continuing freedom of our once great country!!! Right now...you are being led like sheep going to a slaughter!!! Obama has done nothing for both Hispanics & African-Americans...and many of them know it!!! Your future destiny is in your hands....vote carefully.....do not listen or heed to the media....vote for Donald J. Trump. GO DONALD TRUMP!!! Remember...a massive victory for Donald J. Trump will change our great country for the better. Do not throw your vote away on a politician that will abandon you the day after h or she is elected!!!

Simply not true. I’m a social conservative from a small town. These are not our values. You lose the social conservatives, you lose the race. Period. We won’t be shamed by either Cruz or Trump into voting against our principles.

"The wife that doesn’t love her husband."

Certainly it appears it is the wife that cares more about her lipstick being perfect, or is a show wife, or a marriage that is more about achievement than love...

Guess we won't know.

This after Robert Mercer donated $11 million to Cruz’s campaign?

I mean this sincerely:

I feel sorry for the diehard Cruz people on FR. Because I have also been let down by candidates that I placed a lot of hope in. We fans of our “guys or gals” can survive if they lose a fair fight on the issues; but it sure hurts like hell when their people have stupidly shot them in the foot, and then the shot the dog (just for good measure...meh)

The only remedy I see is for Cruz to roundly holler about this and follow with firings of those involved. However, by the time he says this, I suspect the damage might be done in Iowa. And most people believe he had to win Iowa to be on his way.

You didn’t just lose the race. You are identified with Cruz, whether you personally wanted to be or not, and you lost just your cause.
