It’s not a choice between a Democrat and Cruz. Walker has staked out a position on this matter. I hope Cruz comes around to this point of view. H-1B visas are largely a scam to drag down American IT wages.

Cruz proposes eliminating any financial advantage to hiring under H-1B by requiring salaries to match.

Don't make me laugh. Companies figure out ways around all such restrictions once they have the workers here. Best option is to severely curtail H-1B and make it expensive so that only the truly scarce and special foreign talent comes here because companies are willing to pay extra to get it.

I was referring to the post that said that Walker had not missed any governor business while on his trips. He was criticizing Cruz for missing votes while campaigning. I read in a post this morning that billboards were going up in Wisconsin telling Walker to come home and do his job.

I try to ignore leftists and their billboards. Regardless of who they are trying to bash.

Even if the guy is being critical of the guy I'm working for. It ain't right what the left does.

Just who is paying for those billboards?

The post didn’t specify, but just said “liberals”.

Blame the dumbing down of our education system for the H1-B problem.

It sure doesn't help.

“Im for Cruz first and Walker second....Im hoping people will get behind Cruz and not go for the old line of he cant win....he can and will win.”

I think more and more conservatives are realizing Cruz not only can win, but he is the best candidate. Late last year, I was highly skeptical of Cruz as a POTUS candidate and strongly leaning Walker. But after seeing Cruz speak repeatedly and make one brilliant move after another since jumping in, I’ve come to believe Cruz is our best shot of knocking off Hillary. I still like Walker, I just think Cruz is the closest thing we can get to the complete package, and the fact that the GOPe despises him as much as the Dems reinforces my positive view of him.

Personally, I prefer Jindal or Walker to Cruz, but if Cruz gets the nomination you bet I’ll support him 100%. You Cruzers can’t fly off the handle when you realize that not everybody is enamored of your man as much as all of you are. It doesn’t mean we dislike Ted Cruz at all. We just have a different preference for the nomination. Let the process commence and if Cruz is the nominee I’ll support him without a doubt.

Might see a Cruz /Rubio ticket or Walker/Rubio.

I'm very ok with me having an agenda, and working hard to make sure Cruz is the last one standing.

I'm not content to let the GOP-E or media pick the candidate for conservatives. There will be pushback.

I like Jindal and Walker too and I welcome all comers into the race. They all have a right to make their case and may the best man win. That said — I will be HIGHLY disappointed if we end up with Jeb or Christie or some other RINO.

You probably weren't going to vote for him anyway.

Apparently that's your stock response to anyone who offers any criticism of Saint Ted. Why does primary season make so many FReepers act like d*cks to their fellow FReepers?

It's the stock response to those who show, in their posting history, a propensity to attack Cruz for any reason.

I call BS. Let's see the evidence for any one of the nine FReepers (so far) to whom you've made that response.

Go for it.

Go for demonstrating that you're acting like a d*ck and a windbag? Gone and arrived - can't say I like the view much.

Companies are able to find a way around it because it was deliberately written that way.

Walker won’t change that, he belongs to the chamber of commerce, lock, stock, and barrel.

Cruz will try.

What I find amazing is how little he is even mentioned on FOX NEWS.

According to FOX the frontrunners are Walker, Bush, and Rubio.

An awful lot of people have begin responding to CRUZ and his message. I'm one of them.
