Nevada: Ted Cruz's Launches Lightning Tour [Protester will back Sanders or Trump]
Breitbart ^ | February 22, 2016 | Adelle Nazarian

Posted on 02/22/2016 4:35:13 AM PST by Cincinatus' Wife

PAHRUMP, Nevada - Sen. Ted Cruz was heckled during a local "meet and greet" Sunday, the first of ten events in Cruz's lightning 3-day tour of the Silver State. The incident turned violent with both the heckler and a Cruz supporter getting into a physical altercation and being escorted away from the scene by police officers.

Registered Democrat Craig Bohanon, 50, shouted from the audience as Cruz spoke from a Ford pickup truck bed which was made into a stage. Mostly unintelligible, Bohanon called Cruz a liar, defended Obamacare, and called for repealing the 16th Amendment.

Cruz supporter, Don, 66, allegedly grabbed Bohanon by his neck in order to silence him.

"He was screaming in my ear and I couldn't hear anything," he told Breitbart News. "He was saying that Obamacare is something done by Congress and not by Obama. I'm just here to see Ted Cruz."

........Bohanon said he would like to see either Bernie Sanders or Donald Trump win the presidency. "Otherwise we are stuck. We are stagnant. We need somebody who can really go in there and work to make a change. Whether the change is better or worse? We need to change so we can get out of stagnation."......

I get it that you don’t like to see your candidate’s warts but Trump’s got a lot of them.

Interesting how Cruz is reduced to campaigning from the back of a pick-up truck. Maybe the reports of money trouble in his campaign are true.....

Your information is lousy.

Haha. Another Cruzer in denial this morning. Should be another rout tomorrow for your guy. Enjoy it.

I'm not denying the country continues on a downward spiral. That what we are experiencing now are the latest results of the decades-long dumbing down of America. In fact, the only solution I see at this point is a minimum IQ requirement for voting.

I see your shift as a paid troll typically starts about 8:00 am each day.

I've found that those who accuse others, are the ones who are guilty.

I don't insult others and I am not paid by, nor do I work for anyone.

And in some threads, they STILL can't see that they are so hypocritical (name-calling, etc.)

Meanwhile, the guy they want as president is about the meanest, nastiest, person ever to run for the office, at least on the republican side. He actually seems to get off on insulting and demeaning his opponents, several of whom are actual conservatives, unlike him. On the other hand, he has nothing but compliments for enemies like KGB Putin.

So I guess Trump=Romney?

They both back liberal causes, so why not...

Romney also lost in the general, like Trump will if he fools enough people.

Trump=Trump. Cruz and Rubio must win 20% of vote in upcoming states to be awarded any delegate. You can throw insults and complain about Trump all you wish. He will still win.

Your characterization of SC is inaccurate and Lindsey Graham is the existence proof. I said nothing of Cruz either way. Some things are evident beyond the current election cycle.

Hate to break it to you, but Cruz has done that in every stated which has voted.

In fact, he WON Iowa... and came in 3rd in liberal New Hampshire...

The race has JUST begun... and your candidate will continue to move to the left as it goes on...

He will lose.

strong lead by traditional standards but still a ways from the 45% level where frontrunners start to pull away,

Funny...45% is where Trump sits in NV and he's over 50% in FL.

From your chart below I see that Trump's gotten 31.9% of the vote so far. Oh No! That means that 68.1% don't support him! But with Cruz's 20.6% that means 79.4% don't support Cruz! HAHAHAHA!

the sooner Rubio and/or Cruz can start consolidating the two-thirds of GOP voters who have yet to follow his flag:

More delusional thinking. Cruz is a dead man walking and he won't consolidate anything. His ZERO delegate finish on Saturday finished his campaign and probably his political future. And once Trump starts hitting Rubio with the Gang of Eight fiasco he's finished too.

You need to get your head around President Trump. It's going to happen.

You mean, “red red EVANGELICAL SC.” If he can’t win it there he can’t win it anywhere.

Yes...Zero delegates. Zip, Zilch, Zero.

Cruz "character":

1. Phony summonses mailed out, scaring people to vote for Cruz.

2. Claiming Carson quit, presinc captains told voters "vote for Cruz"

3. Campaigning in the 800 churches, showing video "vote for me" with his preacher/father stomping for him. Rafael Cruz is a 7 Mountain Dominionist and believes his son is the anointed one.

4. "Brilliant" lawyer, did not know he was Canadian citizen and that he is not Natural Born Citizen, not eligible for office of P or VP.

5. Making phony video advertising with lies about opponents.

Just enough to beat Trump in IA, apologize, rinse and repeat?

My mistake it was MA, Massachusetts. But, last I did see, Trump is also leading in MN, but that poll was some months ago.
