Seriously. I’m eager for us to unite behind our candidate, and for the assaults against other candidates to come to an end.

Good grief. Using your logic, one could say we should be eager for Israel to end the "assaults" against the Palestinians.

Here's a clue: if the Palis would stop launching missiles into Israel, the "assaults" into Palestine would likely end. If Cruz would stop launching his senseless diatribes against the obvious Republican nominee and get behind him, then the assaults against the Texas Senator would likely end on Free Republic.

It starts with Cruz. The ball's in his court.

You’re equating Cruz, a fine conservative senator with a proven conservative track record, with the Palestinians?

Madness.

Yup, yup and yup again. Losers never, ever get to dictate the terms of surrender. That's a privilege solely (and rightly) reserved for the winners.
