Todd: If Cruz Can Win Evangelical Vote, He Has a Shot
Breitbart TV ^ | March 28, 2015 | Ian Hanchett

NBC’s “Meet the Press” moderator Chuck Todd discussed how Ted Cruz could have a shot at the nomination by riding the evangelical vote to victory in a YouTube video released Friday.

Todd pointed out that in the past candidates can get “relevancy” from the evangelical vote, but no one has been able to use it to win the nomination. But that Cruz, if he can clinch the evangelical vote, might be able to change that because “this primary calendar, believe it or not, is actually in the advantage of evangelical candidates.”

Todd stated that two of the first four primary states, Iowa and South Carolina, have primary electorates that are majority evangelical. He continued that many Deep South states with majority evangelical electorates are thinking of having their primaries on Super Tuesday....

"Governor Huckabee, please pick up the white courtesy phone. Reince Priebus calling."

Later that day...

[Phone ringing, Priebus thinking]#@$%! I hate this!]

"Hello?"

"Rick! It's Reince! How've you been?"

I politely disagree.

but Cruz has never to no shot at the top of the ticket.

*****************

Opinions will vary all over the place but it is way to early to make a
“never to no shot” prediction. Until we see which candidates are in the
GOP race, how the money breaks out, etc we can only speculate. It will be
up to Cruz or any of the other candidates to appeal and secure the majority support.

I believe he will bring the evangelicals out to vote.

I get the feeling that the Fox gang isn’t overly supportive of Cruz because they have loyalties to the Huckster. I doubt Santorum will run - total waste of his time.

I realize it won’t be a popular opinion on FR, but Cruz has never to no shot at the top of the ticket. Hillary would skewer him and the press won’t give him a chance.

Thank you for the bit of hilarity! I needed a good laugh today!


CRUZ or LOSE!

No, they have loyalties to both the Chamber of Commerce and the Traitors in the GOP Establishment.

Huck is a joke, Santorum .... ROFL never going to happen.

It’s Cruz or Walker for the win, with Cruz being my first choice.

We win with just about anyone but Bush frankly against Hitlery

Since 79% of evangelicals voted for Romney (even), Cruz should get 96% as long as he stays on track.

You giving out next week's lotto numbers with your BS prophesy? Because that's what you are doing, taking your prophesy as fact.

Lots of people don't buy what you are selling. I've given twice to Cruz for president. I'll do so again.

I gave more time than money when he was running for the senate.

He won, over the GOP-E favorite that they supported with money and time.

False prophets disgust me. They smugly act like they have the last word on truth.

Fox is part of The Ministry Of Propaganda, wholly owned subsidiary of The Cheap Labor Express. They will push amnesty candidates only and will attempt to diminish Cruz.

Ted Cruz is seeking those who want to honor the Constitution.

I hope there are enough of us left.

To win the general election, any candidate we field on the political right of the spectrum has to draw votes from the center and just slightly left, to get the winning numbers. Whomever gets the nomination from our side better be able to get out the vote from our side, and then better be able to pull some more votes from the other side ... in order to win! And ... I have no idea who that might be.
