I'm wondering if we didn't misread Cruz. He's against Obamacare, but his approach of getting the HOR of stopping it didn't work. Now he's for this trade thing because Congress can stop a bad deal with a majority vote? Ted Cruz is talking himself into inconsistencies.

As far as our embracing Cruz for his immigration stance goes: It seems what he's against is ILLEGAL immigration. His goal is to make it legal, not necessarily to protect US worker's jobs and decent wages. Anyone on the side of US workers should begin talking about fixing or revoking the bad trade deals we already have, not passing new ones. And supporting even more H1B workers? That's insane. How about talking about matching all of those STEM graduates with jobs?

I'm where you are. I'd vote for Cruz if he's the Republican nominee. But he won't get my help in that endeavor. I might even give Rubio a second look. He voted the wrong way on this, but he never got "in our face" defending it like Cruz just did.

Donald Trump is announcing (something) in just three days.

I believe he will run, and he seems to be the only candidate who is ready to bring back US jobs.

He’ll also shut down illegal immigration.

Just saying. Donald Trump. Three days...
