I’d have been willing to put him on stage with all of them.

Well, you know since the Trumpster is leading in the polls, Cruz may not get the chance after he loses next week.
Oh wait...

Cruz keeps quite a schedule. Good thing he’s young.

Every time this guy opens his mouth, I like what I hear.

He says the truth, and says it in an inflammatory way.

Good.

Ted make a good point.

“Every one of the Democratic candidates is agreed on doubling down on the failed Obama strategies. So it was really quite interesting for America to see each and every Democratic candidate explain how they’re every bit as socialist as Bernie Sanders is,” he said.”

Bernie is a self avowed socialist. Did you see any difference between him and the other candidates?

What is the difference between a democrat and a socialist?

The spelling.

What is the difference between socialism and communism?

Socialism will destroy your liberty one bite at a time.

Communism will destroy your liberty in one bite.

“We’re seeing our freedoms taken away every day and last night was an audition for who would wear the jackboot most vigorously. Last night was an audition for who would embrace government power for who would strip your and my individual liberties,”

I will not live in an America controlled by either of these two people , Sanders or Clinton . If somehow they win , that’s it .

And they call themselves 'Democrats'. THEY CAN'T EVEN BE HONEST ABOUT WHO AND WHAT THEY ARE!

Oh and.. You can't spell 'Hillary' without L-I-A-R!

I was especially choked up when Hillary condemned Edward Snowden for putting America at risk. ROFL! Someone tell Hillary about the private email server SHE SET UP containing classified information! The GALL of that woman. Unbelievable.

Whoever posted the comment you linked is either an idiot or a plant

Trump has said REPEATEDLY that he would abolish Obhamacare and has published the program that he would put in its place.

Ted is itching for a face to face showdown.
They have been called out.

It's almost as if the Dems are reading directly from the works of Stalin, Mao, and Gobbels.

100 people? Well that’s embarrassing and seems on par with Clinton.

Trump previously supported single-payer.

I’ve been a fan of Reagan since I was 11, and even at that age I detested government-run healthcare. Where was Donald Trump when it was being passed? I was out in the cold with my protest sign, calling my representatives, and joining the Tea Party. I had to do *something*.

What did Trump do?

Budget: Cruz has made massive financial deals, has put tens of thosuands of people to work, has run a billion dollar business, and protected a bottom line.  Next flight of fantasy...
Civil Liberties: Trump has said he'll round up and deport illegal immigrants, build a wall that is 60 feet tall along our border.  This results in his red marker on civil liberties.  No sale.
Free Market: The "FREE MARKET"...  Nothing in life is free.  The cost of this "FREE MARKET" has been tens of millions of U. S. jobs.  Trump wants to bring them back.  That warrants a red marker.  LOL
Health Care and Entitlements: Trump has proposed a private sector replacement of Obamacare.  He wants to reduce entitlements as part of getting the budget under control.  This red marker is simply proposterous.
Moral issues:  What moral issues?  Good grief.  Name one moral issue Trump has a problem with.
Second Amendment:  This is simply a fraud.  Trump has a paper on Second Amendment rights, and it's recognized as a good one.
Taxes, Economy, and Trade:  Trump's tax position is good.  His economic experience is second to very few U. S. Citizens.  His trade view are more solid than any other candidate's.

In Cruz's favor, his free market mark isn't deserved either.

Trump is the go to guy because of his economic experience.  He is solid on other issues as well, but second to illegal immigration, our national debt and related matters are vitally important and need to be addressed.  Trump is the only candidate with the experience necessary to do that.

Cruz supporters are pleased to drop this bomb on the forum.

It isn't an accurate display on Trump.  As such it's actually a smear on Cruz when his supporters tout it as a reason to support Cruz.  What they should be doing is pointing out the obvious flaws in this ranking.  And RANK is the proper word here....
