It's one thing for Cruz to say that while being polite, which he was. It's another thing altogether for your liberal hero Trump to say it when we know that as a liberal he meant it. In fact, your liberal hero Trump said Jeb Bush was “exactly the kind of political leader this country needs now and will very much need in the future.

Lifelong liberal Donald Trump said JEB Bush was "exactly the kind of political leader we need now and will very much need in the future"? lol!

Great choice in candidate there! lol!

[proust]

Thank you. Nailed it.

I thought Jeb Bush actually tried to fight for Terri Schiavo. The judge was the one that ordered her death. Well, the ex-husband (remarried creep who never should have retained the power) and the judge.

Anyway we were talking about Perry, not Bush.

Perry, Gilmore, Graham, Paul, Santorum, Pataki, and Kasich should go away. That would leave 10, and mollify the GOPe until things could be sorted out as they would still have Bush, Christie, Rubio and Huck. We could get a better fix on the conservatives, and Trump would be there in his own classification.

I lost heart in Perry when he called us heartless in 2012.

The low-budget candidates may manage to get to some of the early primaries. Huckabee, Santorum, for example.

Those who can’t get traction from the debates and get themselves above 2 or 3% are not going to last very long.

He is really better than he shows. The last debate killed him. He can’t recover this cycle. Get out Rick

[proust]

Cruz is much more than polite, he always tells the truth. He said so.

Megyn Kelly? "a terrific journalist.” “I think she does a great job; I think she did a very good job moderating the debate." -Ted Cruz, who always tells the truth.

[WTFOVR]

To quote that gal from the old TV show - ‘The Weakest Link’ ...

“Rick Perry, you ARE the weakest link - goodbye!”

[South40]

Keep grasping. It won’t work, but it is fun to watch. lol!

[FatherofFive]

Perry, Gilmore, Graham, Paul, Santorum, Pataki, and Kasich should go away.

Agreed, but nobody cares about them anyway

It is now between Cruz and Trump

When I was younger due to medical issues, the recruiter said they’d call me when all the women and kids had been drafted. Which as it turned out was a smart call on their part. So it goes. Wanting and having or doing are different things. Thats how I see Perry. Call him when theres no one left for a Hail Mary in a losing fight. That would be several million people to go before we need to.

Heb Arbusto needs to be put on the sidelines first.

Me-Gyna is not a moderator. She is a bomb thrower. But a sirein.

[Brimack34]

Good one, said obamatrade was good to.

[MeneMeneTekelUpharsin]

Failure to address the problem of third-world illegal immigrant types (not the good ones who try to work and be good members of society, unlike Congressmen and women) is the reason he is finished.

[MeneMeneTekelUpharsin]

Seems like every one of those career politicians that attacked Trump Tanked really fast after that!

Rick Perry Linda Grahamnesty
Rand Paul is next
Fiorina after that

Good riddance to all these corrupt fools that have helped destroy America!

Bears repeating.

[Spktyr]

Ahem.

[austinaero]

So WTH is keeping Perry from dropping out of the race,,geeeeshus! Is he trying to outlast Linda?

[austinaero]

I think the GOPe is pushing Carly and still pushing Jeb.
