I was just commenting on your post.

You said “can you imagine a first term Senator (2 years in for Cruz) going up against Hillary?”

YES. Obama did and he had no problem with Hillary. LOL! Every once in a while someone will mess up like you did and it sort of lightens things up. It’s cool. Happens to to us all.

Ha. We’ve had to vote for a LOT worse.

For Cruz, his ceiling is extremely high if he can find a way to get around the character assassination. That’s assuming he’s the real deal. I feel like he is, but never put all trust in a politician. Time will tell.

You east-coast government employee liberals just hate Cruz.

I'll vote for Cruz. I darn sure won't vote for Huck or Jeb or Cristie.

He’s not a “dark horse”. He’s a warmed over Islamophilic RINO.

Romney’s big thing was pretending to reject amnesty.

No way hillary eats Cruz’es lunch- he can take care of himself. Didn’t she already get her big butt smacked down by a first-term senator?

Only three of the 40 plus GOP senators (Cruz, Paul, Lee) seem to stand for anything.

Yep those are three good men. However Jeff Sessions has been there since 1996 and battling liberals with little help ... long before those three came on the scene.

I’ve always liked Pence, but I worry that he may not be aggressive enough for the Dem Zealots of today. How are his debating skills? We don’t need another Gentleman Loser like Paul Ryan was in that farce of a debate. Cruz or Rand can emit a “Don’t F with me” tone warning that BS will not be tolerated today. Walker is also very brave and tenacious.

‘Hillary Clinton would eat Ted Cruz for lunch’...a definite contender for most moronic post of the year.

Here's a report on Pence's debating skills when he ran for Governor in 2012. Sounds like he's pretty good.

"Cruz, Palin, Santorum, and Jindal"

I like three of your choices. Santorum seems very immature to me. I think Dr. Ben Carson should be on the list also, but I am not comfortable with some of his past opinions on the Second Amendment. I also like John Bolton, but he has abortion position problems.

So who are you for, Christy or Bush? In my opinion those two are the front runners now.

I have always liked Mike Pence but I don’t think he’s the guy for this time around.

Yeah, she really ate Obama for lunch...a 2 year first term Senator with zero experience.

Pence fought Bush’s budget. That showed me a lot right there.

Same here...

I’m sure Santorum will be back again to muddy the water. Frankly, I don’t want to see a single candidate from the last pres. primary.
