That sound you hear is all their masks falling to the floor.

Comparing Sweater Vest and Huckleberry to Ted Cruz?! Hilarious!

A lot more to Cruz than this introductory ad, but I like it and think it hits the nail on the head. America has lost sight of God and lost sight of our founding principles. Ted is right to stake his campaign on restoring both. A godless, unprincipled nation cannot survive.

Go, Cruz, GO!!

Yeah, that comparison is lame.....but having said that, I would not have led with this.....I think the Liberty U introduction was enough.

Cruz is pretty damn smart. I have never seen anyone position themselves better for the Republican nomination in my adult lifetime (I was a teenager when Reagan ran)

He is checking all the boxes and is securing all the different wings of the Republican party before any of the other one dimensional candidates grab one of them.

Oh, how Satan and his little boot lickers hate the name of Jesus.

He knows that Iowa and South Carolina are crucial (Jebbie will almost certainly win in Red Hampshire) and he knows that Evangelicals, Charismatics, hard-shell mainline Protestants and traditional Catholics will be key in those two states, as well as the follow-on primaries. He has already wrapped-up Nevada and other Western states on different issues such as land & water.

Here it is, the first television ad of the 2016 presidential campaign, courtesy of the first official presidential candidate, Ted Cruz. No beating around the Bush here

Just to be clear...does he plan to clobber'm directly in the middle of the forehead?

Smart Strategy. They will dismiss him as all about religion and then he will rock their world when he concentrates his debates on the constitution.

Cruz should be ashamed of himself for mentioning Jesus in his commercials. Instead, he should proudly display a couple of homos having butt sex, or maybe a giant black thug beating up a diminutive shop owner. Or a couple of body-pierced lesbian bunny huggers chained to a tree.

But if he did, everyone would think he was a just a run-of-the-mill Democrat.

I understand Iowa, but SC is not normally driven by evangelical issues. Newt ran the best SC campaign maybe ever, and it had very little emphasis on those issues.

taking Jesus as your running mate is a sure loser

Not when Islam radicals are beheading and shooting people for being Christian abroad and at home Christians are being forced to support values that are against their religion.

The messaging is tailored to a very specific audience. You get a better conversion rate that way.

If you do a spray and pray time outreach you don't get too many wins.

Jeb may not get NH. Last poll I saw had Scott Walker up.

Good...He drew the line in the sand...An ambassador for Jesus Christ...

God offered his kingdom to the Jews, his chosen people...They rejected him...The outcome was not pretty...

Now we have an ambassador of Jesus offering to lead the Country...If we, his adopted children reject him, perhaps the times of the Gentiles are over with...

I'm sure Ted will not be trying to win the muzlim vote...I suspect he will pit Christianity against Izlam and I'm sure there are at least some liberals who will support a staunch Christian againt the murdering slime of Izlam...I suspect Ted will lead the charge against Izlam...
