Listen folks, I live in Texas and have had the pleasure of voting for Cruz a few times before. He is the real deal. Even if you outside don’t accept him as your candidate he will be back and now that you’ve seen him and get a chance to see him in action you too will be 100% Cruz.

I like Cruz a lot. He's a little over the top dramatic, but his policies far out weigh that. I think he's genuinely a good guy, a smart guy, and I would love for him to be the next president. But... his only shot is to ride this thing out and be one of the last two or three still standing. And then, he will have a major uphill battle in the general election. He is genuinely HATED by the other side. Probably hated worse than the other republican candidates.

If Cruz manages to pull this off, it will clearly be because it is God's will.

Remember how underrated he was against Dewhirst.
It’s amazing with all the money and all the sludge he threw at Ted via commercials that the people saw through it and Ted kicked his butt.

One way or t’other, he has to be declared the winner of the SEC. If not, he’s playing for silver.

Notice that poster has Rand Paul and Rick santorum on it? LOL

[right way right]

Third Party???

[Undecided 2012]

Trust me if Ted can carry it down to 2 or 3 with debates remaining it will be game over. Trump, Palin and the entire evangelicals that will show up and vote will back him. Then the Rino RNC has a choice back him or we open a Real Conservative Party separate from the rino Republicans.

[cripplecreek]

I went looking for information on Ted Cruz from before he was on the national stage and found him to be a solid conservative even when I wasn't looking.



The guy is more accomplished than the entire senate is over the past decade.

[caww]

These two wonderful Christians are going to win the Trumps to the Lord....I'd almost bet money on it!...the First priority of this election to get Trump in the right ballpark...tsk tsk!

[Undecided 2012]

Trump steals all the headlines with his flamboyant bs. We shall see. We all know the media is anti-Cruz hopefully eventually they’ll have no choice but to cover Cruz not honestly and probably very biased but at least people will see, here, listen and be able to make their own informed decision. Trust me the Texas media was most definitely against him during his Senate run.

[right way right]

I read about the whys and wherefores and have yet to see any benefits in holding open primaries.

[LoneStar42]

Yep. Helped in my own small way.

I voted. (grin)

[demshateGod]

I am not of that opinion. The lesser of two evils route got us where we are. Where we are is the total destruction of America. Thanks lesser of two evils voters.

[demshateGod]

Cruz or lose. He is the only one worth voting for because he's the only one with the theory in action/ situational awareness to stop the Washington Cartel.

[demshateGod]

Has a Sodomite, Marxist, Muslim ever won the presidency?

1860- Abraham Lincoln defeated Whigs and Democrats

[ripnbang]

So it’s ok to vote third party if it’s Cruz, but not Trump?

[right way right]

It's funny you talking about a third party, I was predicting a third party lead by Cruz a little over a year ago.
The uni-party has wiped out the need for that by way overstepping the bounds of trust of those who voted for them thereby eliminating the need for a third party.
We are a grassroots faction of the party now and we are a bit more than just motivated by common anger; it is a righteous anger from God by the Holy Spirit in a nation embroiled in Spiritual Warfare.
I'm for Cruz and I believe Trump received similar revelations from the clergy he met with today.
I pray for them both and I trust in God. Our nation was built on that trust but has now turned it's back. May God have mercy. Amen.

[right way right]

Cruz would not run third party if it’s Trump.
