So which left of Cruz GOP’er will you support? Make no mistake they are all left of Cruz.
I can almost hear the RINO leadership sitting around a table some where..
What are we going to do about Cruz???!!!
This guy is the real deal! He actually BELIEVES this conservative stuff!
and he has the brains to defend his beliefs!
What the HECK are we going to do about him!
...
Random RINO speaks up...
hm... is there a single issue Cruz believes in that is liberal?
crowd... not really... he is pretty much a die hard far left true believer conservative.
ok... but on what issue is he furthest left?
um... I guess that would be free trade, in the past he has articulated some sympathy toward the principle of free trade and in particular giving president fast track authority to negotiate.
THAT”S IT !!!!
Here's the plan...... We make the upcoming vote on fast track which is usually rubber stamped by congress with nearly unanimous votes into a big issue. We turn this meaningless vote into the defining issue of this election and the litmus test of any true conservative. Then when Cruz comes out for it, we BLAST him (and only him since everyone else will be supporting it too) to drive a wedge between Cruz and his conservative base of support. Then we prop up a clown like Trump to be the Anti Fast Track Hero of the American worker as an alternative. The rubes of course will be too stupid to remember that Trump is a liberal and will thus succeed in pealing off a good chunk of Cruz's conservative base!
Woot ! great plan! Now someone call Trump and get him on board!
None of the above at the moment. By the time my state's primary occurs, the field will have thinned quite a bit.
I also disagree with your contention that Cruz is to the right of the rest of the field. After his stunt with TPA and his support for quintupling H-1B visas, at best he's middle of the pack, assuming you can trust a word that comes out of his mouth. And I have my doubts about that given the misrepresentations he made to spin his vote for TPA.
