Like Donkey Kong. Ted Cruz scored a surprising third-place finish in New Hampshire in yesterday's first-in-the-nation primary, and now it looks like he's going for a knockout before South Carolina. Cruz tweeted out the campaign's latest web ad after his victory, one that takes aim at the winner, Donald Trump. The ad depicts children playing with their new "Donald Trump action figure," and says what he does most is "pretend to be a Republican"...
It's a tour de force of counter-Trump arguments. The ad manages to mention Trump's friendship with Hillary Clinton, Nancy Pelosi, and Harry Reid (and adds in a shot at Anthony Weiner, too). Bailouts and Too Big To Fail get mentioned, but it's Trump's support for eminent domain that gets most of the attention (video):

What is Donkey Kong? I dont get the reference or how it applies.
It’s funny because the doll looks like Ted Cruz, who also supports eminent domain. LOL
Yes! It is official! Donald Trump is a FAKE REPUBLICAN! Republicans have let Barack Obama have free rein on everything he wanted to do TO America for the past seven years. Before that they put in the infrastructure that would allow Barack Obama to do the things he wanted to do TO America. For more information on the Uniparty see:
Donkey Kong. What in Hades does that have to do with Cruz getting 3rd. To me it's surprising that he almost got beat by !Jeb! and lost to Kasich. Wow, how delusional can Ed be. He truly is full of Hot Air. A commercial is going to knock out Trump. Pure idiocy from a desperate writer trying to salvage something from yesterdays humiliation:
Horrid ad — using children — unfathomable.
I dont’ much like ads where kids mouth some politician’s lines. They have no idea what they are really doing, they’re just being used... better (for me) would have been to have the kids peeking around the corner at their parents saying the awful things. Have the kids say nothing... leave it to us who see the ad to understand what they’re picking up.
Good old political Establishments hit piece advertising tactics....which are going to go over like a fart in church with voters this year.
Looks like it is “Hail Mary” in the Cruz camp. These are the sort of ads losing campaign run hoping for something to turn thing around.
“Oakland Athletics - Game One - World Series 1988”
I was there YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's missing the Cruz doll stealing Ben Carson's votes.

Yeah, that’s the Big issue of our day, not our country being turned into Tijuana North, or the destruction of our Manufacturing. Next the ‘Eminent Domain’ lunatics will be pushing the other concerns, such as , Unconstitutional Drivers licensees, or Satanic Social Security numbers.
Very clever.
Trump is not remotely conservative, just a nationalistic progressive.
Cruz's campaign posted the video earlier today of Trump with Tim Russert on Meet the Press in 1999.
Russert asked Trump about gay marriage. Trump didn't want to comment on it, but said he has no problem with gays in the military .
He explained, "I've lived in New York City and Manhattan all my life, okay? So my views are a little bit different than if I lived in Iowa."
When Russert asked Trump about abortion, he said he's "pro-choice in every respect" and again cited his New York background, which he said has a "different attitude" from most of the country.
What are you talking about, the ad is AWESOME. You are obviously blinded by your Trump worship.
Agreed but I don’t waste my time arguing with ignorant morons.
On to South Carolina to remind people that St Donald said the confederate flag belongs in a museum.
The issue is using eminent domain for private projects.
It is hysterical. I watched it several times.
Eminent domain made Trump rich. That’s all Cruz wants you to know.
I would be likely to vote for Trump if he said he is NOT a republican. So, I don’t think Cruz saying Trump isn’t a republican is going to hurt Trump. I’m sure Trump could find lots of gopE senators who would say Cruz is not a republican.
Why, of course you would. Let me know when you get to 100.
