Ted Cruz CLEARLY has two standard deviations of IQ on Greta (and most of the other media also). I almost felt sorry for Greta as she loyally carried out her Fox News marching orders and tried vainly to bring down Ted Cruz.

The author’s take on this whole situation is SPOT ON!

Ted and that other guy (this is a Cruz thread, after all) are truly the revenge of Sarah Palin. Gotta love it.

Cruz is clearly the candidate who deserves our support. If Trump is the nominee, prepare for some cringe-worthy moments in the debates.

Let’s give Palin her due: among many other things, she caused the MSM to pull out their heavy ordnance and display their battlefield tactics, so that the next principled conservative would know what to expect. If it weren’t for Palin being Palin-ized, Cruz wouldn’t have known what to expect, and how to counter-attack it. If you know yourself and you know your enemy, you will win a hundred battles.

...just because Fox News has a large audience, doesn’t mean that the Fox News viewer is in lockstep with what Fox News believes.

And here lies the problem; Fox News shouldn't "believe" anything other than reporting news events. When they start to "believe" they become hopelessly biased and we all ready have more than enough of that.

***********************************************************
Company Man, in view of your tagline (Keep on Trumpin’) it’s clear you are a Trump supporter. I commend you on your WONDERFUL attitude and decency. We (constitutional pro-American conservatives) are all in this together and I wish all Cruz/Trump supporters would share your approach. It’s an approach that will lead us toward VICTORY and not self-destruction.

Fox goes out of their way to talk Bush and Christy, both low numbers doesn’t justify.

I think Sarah was ultimately responsible for allowing the media to do this to her. She put herself in a position to not adequately defend herself and her family and it doomed her.

Nope, the back-stabbing harpy Nicolle Wallace set those up, especially the series with her "best friend forever" Katie Couric, who stalked Palin around for hours and days, getting bits and pieces of footage that she then edited into a single major hit job. Palin did the best she could, but ultimately the blame lies with McCain for isolating the governor from her own trusted staff and then foisting those loser hacks (including Schmidt) on her. If Palin failed at anything, it was that she tried to too hard to play ball with the very people who were trying to destroy her, instead of reminding them (and McCain) that she was an elected, sitting governor of a very important state, and to back off.

I honestly like Cruz. As a conservative he’s at the top of the pack.

But the electorate is not going to elect a “conservative”.

The only way to win is to go with someone that can pull in whites, blacks, hispanics. Republican, democrat, and independents.

Otherwise we get Hillary.

It’s good to see articles from conservative sources pointing out what has become inescapably obvious about Fox News. My fervent hope is that the blowback is eroding their ratings too. It would also be a lot of fun to see a President Cruz not give them their much-coveted presidential access.

Cruz does a very good job of handling the press. They spew out something nasty and he responds in a very calm and logical fashion. The media is not used to that and most are not trained on how to handle it. He difinately classes them up a bit.

Who truly fits that bill though? Jeb? Carly? They are so low in the polls and currently have no shot unless RNC and GOP pull something wonky.

Palin is the common denominator:

I'm going to go out on a limb and guess you are for Trump. I actually do not see an appreciable difference between Trump and Cruz. They are both smart, though I would give the edge to Cruz, they both know how to win and don't back down from what they believe and they both believe that America is the best country in the world and want to repair the damage caused by liberals and the communist muslim in residence. If Trump can draw the groups you say are needed then so can Cruz as they are two peas in a pod so to speak. I would be comfortable voting for either one. Oh and I think Reagan was Conservative and was easily elected by the electorate......twice.

It would be Trump. Cruz as VP...

I think you are wrong about that and this guy agrees with me.
