REALITY CHECK: Cruz is poaching and calling them Cruz delegates ever since he started colluding and conspiring w/ the GOPeers and Goldman Sachs Big Money Globalists who took over his losing campaign. KEEP IN MIND These delegates are not pro-Cruz - they are anti-Trump. In other words they are the same party insiders as before who are not loyal to Cruz but to the GOPe.

And where the hell did Cruz get lists of delegates? They are not his property.

Obviously, the GOPeers are giving Cruz delegate lists to play around with.

Cruz is a constitutional conservative with a Conservative Review Liberty Score of 97%

Ted Cruz is not a constitutional-conservative. Were Cruz really a constitutional-conservativehe would not be running for president. There is no way in he[[ that the son of a Cuban born in Canada is a natural born citizen of the United States under original intent.

There is no way a constitutional-conservative would have voted for the Corker amendment.

There is no way a constitutional-conservative would have voted to reauthorize the Patriot Act.

There is no way a constitutional-conservative would have voted for the TPP enabling TPA.

Ted Cruz is also a liar, conservatives used to not like lairs.

Conservative Review is a #NeverTrump joke, Conservative Review is behind the idea to blackball everyone that supports Trump, see Amanda Carpenter tweet in the tweet list below.

"Fact-checking Donald Trump is like picking up after a dog with diarrhea."

-- Stephen Hayes, Weekly Standard, on Fox News (See "A is for Ape")

Reference your post # 29: Truer words have yet to be spoken. I have been saying for years now that the Republicans have more contempt for their base than the Democrats have for their base.

Cruz’s campaign reeks of the Obama MO

<><>Cruz gave his campaign staff David Plouffe’s book, The Audacity of Winning”.... told them to memorize it and use it. (Plouffe was Obama’s campaign manager).

<><> fast-tracking TPP—Obama’s legacy trade plan.

<><> Cruz repeats and repeats Obama-like lawlessness;

<><> sealing all personal records;


Every time Cruz loses, he makes a “victory speech.” The poor man hears voices.....telling him HE won.

Now the voices are telling Ted: “Stop rooting for the Maple Leafs, you’re an American”

“I believe the point here is the Electoral College hijacking the election if a third party run by Trump causes no one to get the required EV.”

Yeah, I stopped reading about halfway through the article when it seemed like the same old stuff. So if there is a 3 way race and no candidate gets a majority of Electoral college votes the House of Representatives chooses the President. That would be interesting.

“What they are is vicious, calculating liars who never had any intention of implementing the stuff they’ve said during campaigns to keep the voting fodder in line. ... I’m not sure anyone is at the place where I’m at. I’m in total fear about how we’re losing all of our liberty and any chance to recover, because establishment ‘pubs just don’t give a damn about us.”

Very well said. This is how it all looks to me as well.

And any “conservative” organization that would give Cruz a 97% rating after his support of Trade Promotion Authority for Obama is full of sh*t.

Isn’t conservative review a web site run by Mark Levin?

We now return to our regularly scheduled programming of Trumpanzees and Cruzbots carpet bombing each other while Hitlery goes untouched.

I may not be in with the GOP power Elite at all.

I have my vote which is earned

Ted Cruz can't convince me he can beat Trump by a majority of votes.

The rest have no business even talking about being the nominee.

Their is a reason that the GOP hasn't had a contested Convention in Forty Years and I guess they will find out why they abandoned it.

The other was 64 but the GOP will never recover as the Democrats will pass legislation to give them a lifetime majority with open borders and Judges.

GOP = Party of Stupid

Is the 3% the part where he is running for the office that he is unconstitutionally unqualified to hold?

Wisconsin just handed Paul Ryan a path to the White House being 2016's "well, he's better than the Democrat so you have to vote for him if you are a REAL conservative" choice provided by the Uniparty.

I already helped out this crony fascist from the land of herds, curds & turds once and regretted it, so no thanks GOP/CofC. The downticket debacle from all this will destroy the feckless Republican party for good, but the big chunks at the top of the tank are cool with that.

In the event this becomes the reality, Ryan will have no mandate. Both Houses of Congress will revert to the Democrats, and the Democrats will regain the White House in 2020.

>>GOP = Party of Stupid

They would only be viewed as “stupid” if their goals were the same as ours. They are not.

They align with their colleagues, GOP and Dem alike. They share the same goal: self enrichment at our expense.

I wonder how much longer will it be until this becomes widely known?

If Cruz wasn’t so arrogant as to take the south for granted he wouldn’t be losing

Actually, not the House members but rather the Electors chosen by the voters in each state. Their selection could be as important as the choice of delegates should there be a three-way or a four-way run for the general election.

I wonder if Donald goes third party and Bernie gets aced out, will Bernie mount an independent run?

All the other hellholes in the world do show elections... I guess our elites like to have their big fat egos massages by winning elections - even when rigged.

Guess the next step is a ‘Saddam’ type election where the current thug get 98% of the vote.

But it wouldn’t matter. According to the article, if no candidate gets a majority, the House decides.
