The progressive elites will try to do to Cruz what they did to...

Doesn't matter - it was over for Cruz when he pulled that Carson crap!

Bringing up crucifiction in defence if Ted is literally offensive.

Ted Cruz is not Jesus Christ, and citizens not preferring him does not make him a sacrificial lamb.

At what point does the absurdity become over the top even to a Cruz supporter, or is that even possible?

Forget the progressives. The President Camacho wing of the Republican party is doing a fine job over here.

That he is. Campaigning against Federal ethanol subsidies in Iowa, a major corn producing state, and against all poll predictions, Cruz defeated the media's favourite, Donald Trump, receiving more votes than any Republican candidate ever had. Cruz is the candidate most motivated by his attachment to traditional American principles. For his opponents, these are principles to which lip service only should be accorded these days. But the principles under which a Cruz administration would operate are the very ones on which the American Republic was founded.

Ted Cruz has done his homework, he's advocates for conservative, free market principles and he understands the issues.

Watch how Ted Cruz explains to an angry farmer, who eventually quiets down to listen, how he is going to help farmers.

All subsidies - across the board - oil, gas, wind, solar, ethanol are gone; EPA fuel blend, gone.

Death tax, gone.

Being Christian and not afraid to be open about it is an asset - being some single-topic zealot is - zealotry.

Cruz ain't Christ and Trump ain't Satan.

After Iowa we were told “Put on your big boys pants”. If you can’t take the heat get out of the kitchen.

The progressive elites will try to do to Cruz what they did to Abbott

Thats actually pretty funny line. We here do not have to wait for the progressive elites to crucify Cruz.

Just open Free Republic and read conservatives crucify Cruz every day.

I don't know if the man can win the General or not, not sure I understand why he supports TPP. No matter, What he has already accomplished, 100 times more than most here who bad mouth him. Yeah I know, easier to destroy than to lift up and move good ideals forward.

But of course conservative LOVE to eat their own. So why should Cruz be any different. Hey Kilroy . . . we have met the enemy . . . it is us!

“The American mainstream media,”?

There is nothing “mainstream” about this media.

The more accurate term is “THE CORRUPT LIBERAL MEDIA”

“CORRUPT” being the operative word.

This is the original Spectator, which has an enormously long publication history in the U.K. I remember using quotes from The Spectator in college English papers.

Anyone with that opposition must be formidable.
Like David Duke was formidable! LOL I mean, just because certain factions object to Cruz, does not make Cruz a "good choice" or "formidable." Not saying Cruz is like David Duke, just that an argument that a person is a "good choice" or "formidable" doesn't work just by pointing to a set of objectors.

Ted is being crucified by many right here on FR. Pretty sad to see FReepers using left-wing attacks on Cruz right here at the “premier online gathering place for independent, grass-roots conservatism.”

The American mainstream media, the Republican Party establishment and the Democratic Party are determined that Ted Cruz not be sworn in as the 45th president

They don't have much to worry about.

Cruz will never be president. He is unelectable, and frankly untrustworthy from a leadership perspective. His entire team is composed of BushBots I don’t want to see back in power. However he is a brilliant lawyer and should be Chief Justice, if there is a way to demote Roberts.

Cruz defeated the media's favourite, Donald Trump,

Ok. I don't get it. Half the posts say the media hates Trump. The other half says they love him. So which is it? Or does it hinge on whether you are for Trump or another candidate?

Cruz is scholar. He has never held a job outside of govt. We have had enough of that kind who get nothing done in the real world. Trump is a bare knuckles brawler. Bring it on.

I find it quite interesting that Cruz, who is a lawyer, hasn’t produced a CRBA (Consular Report of Birth Overseas) but has released his MOTHER’S birth certificate. Cruz knows damn well that the CRBA settles the question of whether he’s a citizen, and that the “natural born” question will remain live in any event. 

That little intentional omission and refusal smells like dead fish. Why doesn’t Cruz present the documents that PROVE he is a U.S. Citizen? NBC of course is still an issue but at least prove he is eligible to hold a U.S. Senate seat!

If for some crazy reason Cruz was the nominee against Sanders, or heaven forbid, Clinton, either one would destroy Cruz with this in revenge for Obama’s treatment. 

On the basis of all available evidence today, Ted Cruz is in fact holding a seat in the U.S. Senate illegally, with no documented proof of legal U.S. citizenship whatsoever, and proof of Canadian citizenship between the years of birth in 1970 and May 2014.

It is unfortunate that a person so many have placed their political faith in has proven willing to defraud his supporters for both votes and millions in campaign donations. But it is better we know now, than after he wins the GOP nomination only to be destroyed by Democrats later.

This matter has to be settled.

Funny how an Aussie "gets it" that Cruz is the ONLY candidate talking about taking power out of Washington and giving it BACK TO THE PEOPLE....and that the hatred directed at him is generally perpetrated by people who are determined to be American RULERS...and have no intention of being our "servants".

I saw it in Texas....and am seeing a repeat performance now. As in the past, his detractors won't attack Cruz on his positions of the Constitution, the law or the corruption of power in Washington.....they make fun of him as a person, through jokes about his name, his family, the way he talks, or the fact that he doesn't shove that irritating Christianity into the closet when he runs for office, which they believe makes him "open game" for religious attacks.

And as happened in Texas, it's going to get a LOT worse as their hatred builds should his support increase nationally.

Cruz didn't let them beat him down and out of the race in Texas....we shall see if he has the same backbone to continue the fight through March and beyond.
