Neither Huckabee nor Santorum had $100 million dollars to do the necessary follow-through on their early wins. Ted Cruz does, however.

The Cruz missile has launched, and it has course-correctional capabilities.

“insiders say he has a good chance like Rick Santorum in 2012 and Mike Huckabee in 2008 to win the Alabama GOP primary.”
Is this like Rip Van Winkle, you wake up 20 years later and don’t know what’s going on?

We’ve been waiting 30+ years for a real conservative we can vote for.
And now, we’ve got a populist with a near majority at FRee Republic.
Wow. We could blow the only chance in my adult lifetime if some folks’ hopes come true.

It’s like if George Wallace or Ross Perot were running in 1980.

If Ted Cruz had showed more courage In standing up to the GOPe like Donald Trump has, perhaps he would be doing better.

Another low-information Trump supporter opens his mouth and states something he knows nothing about and the facts don't support.

He’s repeatedly name-dropped U.S. Sen. Jeff Sessions of Mobile, a popular Republican among conservatives whose anti-immigration stance has been embraced by GOP candidates this year...
I could have bet money on that one. He will continue to make it sound like he has Session’s support since Session’s backed him against Rubio.

Words are cheap as hell when compared to actions. And you don't know what you're talking about.

And you don't know what you're talking about. Case in point, for the past couple of months, Ted Cruz has been battling the GOPe in the Senate, in the press and on the Senate floor criticizing the budget deals.
So then yesterday, the budget passes, Trumps makes a comment and some Trump supporters claim that Trump is leading on the issue.
Low information indeed.

Ok, so answer this - Why is Trump winning and Ted Cruz losing?

Case in point [...]In every case, in any case, you can bet that Cruz has been right in the thick of it - Right up to his neck. King, Sessions, and Cruz, defending WHAT? Defending Conservatism, and the American Way. *NO ONE* can claim that defense more than they, and Cruz probably chief among them (not to pick nits).
And many would trade that for somebody with a pretty mouth. Go figger.
sTrumpets... Selling what looks like the real thing, but in truth, isn't even close.
