Your last gasp at saving the Cruz disaster campaign.

Good luck. I think Rubio may beat Cruz even.

Can we please just stop with this infighting? The Republicans would be better off with either Trump or Cruz as the nominee. Both are heads and shoulders above the rest of the field, which is mainly controlled by the GOP-e wing of the party.

Trump’s position papers are conservative. He has NOT been endorsed by the Commie mayor of NYC. De Blasio was stumping for HILLARY in Iowa over the weekend.

Cruz is a rock-bed conservative. One of the best, if not the best in the Senate.

Just give these attacks a rest. I’d be honored to have either as my nominee.

but as to the actual article the simple answer is anybody can be close up or on top with the polling this close. Its all about turnout now.

Cruz sets off my creep meter. Also, close your eyes and listen to his voice and accent. You hear George H.W. Bush.

I’m voting for someone that knows the real world. That knows how the real world works. We need a President with street smarts.

We don’t need someone that has been advanced by affirmative action. He’s touted a the “first hispanic solicitor general of Texas” and the “first hispanic law clerk for the Supreme Court”.

LOL. Trump is breaking all the rules. I notice no similar head scratching when it comes to Hillary. Just another Trump "concern troll" piece.
