Well I can hope that our two anti-establishment candidates can come in 1 -2 from here on out.

Internal polling must have indicated that these ads were a big turn-off to South Carolinians. Now, if his staff can just keep him off Twitter. :-)

Smart.

A large contingent of conservatives and patriots support both Donald and Ted. Hurting one hurts the other, which is exactly what the establishment and their lapdog media wish to see happen.

The spot also scolded Mr. Cruz for his campaign's role in spreading claims that Ben Carson had suspended his campaign

Any mention of Trump comparing Carson to a child molester?

ALL campaigns need to target barney’s “get people together” campaign slogan and explain to the uneducated about the truth of who is going to pay for their freebies and that it is communism.

Rush talking about this now.

The Don isn’t going to let go of that bogus claim about Carson.

Trump needs to keep it simple.....

A foreign-born ineligible 1st term senator Harvard lawyer got us into this mess do we really need another one to get us out of it?

Mr. Trump's campaign manager, Corey Lewandowski, had made the decision to go with all positive spots beginning on Thursday.

Bad decision, and one I expect Lewandowski will soon reverse. Negative ads work. (Otherwise, campaigns wouldn't use them.) Campaigns that try to go "all positive" usually lose.

Lewandowski is a professional; he should know that. I suspect that the Trump campaign is trying to coast, to sit on their lead. That is likely to bite them eventually.

There were charges of dishonesty in the adds. It was easier to pull the ads than defend them.

STUNNING comparisons! THEIR WORDS!

This week we have examined the presidential campaign announcement speeches of Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio and Donald Trump.
We have looked at their comments on immigration and Terrorism, Islam here.

Today we look at what their concerns with the 2nd amendment/right to bear arms in their important first campaign speeches. Following that is Trade.

The man is crushing his opposition in the polls. He can afford to be magnanimous.

Probably waiting to see the outcome of Cruz and Carson’s meeting.

It would look really dumb if the come out of it fast friends and Carson throws his support to Cruz.

This is excellent news. Trump & Cruz need each other. Their respective supporters need each other. The cause of restoring America to her traditional purpose requires that the two complementary camps--those focused as Trump & those focused as Cruz--come together this fall.

Support For Trump & Cruz.

There is more to this....I give it at least 60% that Trump picks Cruz as VP...I still believe this.

Can anyone argue that Trump is good at math?

Trump needs to beat Cruz a few more primaries but in the end, I still believe Trump likes Cruz and all will be forgiven.

We can get another Repub to fill Cruz’s seat.

He found out that people in the South don’t like rude/crudeness.

It won’t work, Cruz can just take his past twitter, verbal statements and make them into a campaign commercial.

Class and polite behavior works well in the South when one is genuine that’s one reason WHY Cruz will make it a real ‘contest’ there!!

The real reason Trump took the ad down is that absolutely NO ONE believes Cruz is part of the GOP establishment.

Just one on piece of evidence that Trump will lie about anything to get what he wants. He lied about this just like he lies about everything else.

As for the bullshit excuse about wanting to be positive; it’s a fact that negative ads work. Trump took the ad down because he must have polling data showing that voters have a negative reaction to it and it was hurting him.
