It’s just the media trying to pick our candidate again. Don’t let them do it.
Ted Cruz changed the format of the debate with his rant against the media. Prior to that the questions and responses were attacks on Republicans by Republicans. After that the candidates came to their senses. The questions were formulated prior to the debate after much consultation. They were designed to pit the candidates against each other. The left overplayed their hand however. John Harwood’s questions, “Leading republican candidate when you look at the average of national polls right now is Donald Trump. when you look at him do you see someone with the moral authority to unite the country?†was met by groans from the audience. After the debate Reince Priebus said, “I thought maybe they would bring forward a pretty fair forum here tonight.†What banana boat did this guy fall off of. People like Harwood and Crowley are not unbiased moderators of a debate. Now we
Time to get your eye exam? Is a bear catholic? Does the pope pope in the woods?
“I ask this question because my observation, especially of Fox News, is that the strategy is to avoid mentioning Cruz. All the conservative websites show that commentators overwhelmingly favor Ted Cruz. By limiting Cruz references, the leftist media hurt Cruz with the low information crowd.”
As a 1964 Goldwater Republican, currently a Tea Party person, I suggest the election of Trump/Carson in 2016 with the appointment ASAP of Cruz to the Supreme Court where he can do a lifetime of work for the Conservative cause in support of Trump for eight years and then if we are smart and lucky, Carson for the following eight years.
During this period of time an all out effort to weed out the RINO’s by any and all means, short of assassination, from the Congress can take place at the State level.
One of several big problems that Trump/Carson/Cruz will encounter, if elected, are the Federal Agencies populated with Democrats/Leftists who will do everything they can, with the help of the media, to sabotage a Republican/Conservative Executive, Congressional, Judicial Federal government. This Administration portion of the government numbers in the thousands and it is going to take time to replace these Utopian air heads with a more conservative leaning government work force that favors the U.S. Constitution, especially the Bill Of Rights.
I have not heard any discussion on this so far, but IMHO will be one of the major problems to be faced by a conservative group of elected leaders... whoever they may be.
I am 83 with Stage 3 CKD going on 4. I just hope I can make it through the end of 2016, the National Election in Nov 2016 and another LSU football season with Fournette in his third year. Interesting times we are living in...
Have a good day...
Yep-—Daddy Bush was forced onto Reagan as VP by the elite sodomites-—he was the chief Franklin Cover-up guy -—bringing boys into the White House to abuse in vile ways. Fox News is pro-sodomite “marriage” because it is all about emasculating the little boys like in the culture of islam——the boy harems create sexist, puerile, dependent immoral males fixated in latency (narcissism and idolatry).
To destroy this country—you need to destroy Virtue and the easist way is by Sex Ed (Common Core) to destroy the Christian Worldview in children for the pagan, satanism (islam) religions.
When Just Law is allowed to promote vice (null and void) it will corrupt the culture and destroy Virtue in the people (Cicero).
The thing about him not answering the question: no one who is being honest can say Cruz was not capable of answering. They don’t like Cruz. I don’t recall other commentators making an issue of some other candidate doing something similar. The fact he went down the line, apparently recalling every snide, partisan question unnerved them.
Good posting, Harris.
I’ve noticed for months that FoxNews strives to ignore Cruz in their polls and other coverage. ....I’m not sure why, other than the fact that he is the only real Conservative in the race. .....They, and other media, have been touting Bush, Carson, Kasich and Rubio; all of which are losers.
From the 'debate'...
"This is not a cage match," the Texas Republican said. "And you look at the questions — 'Donald Trump, are you a comic-book villain?' 'Ben Carson, can you do math?' 'John Kasich, will you insult two people over here?' 'Marco Rubio, why don't you resign?' 'Jeb Bush, why have your numbers fallen?' How about talking about the substantive issues people care about?" Cruz's media criticism drew loud applause at the University of Colorado Boulder, where the GOP field gathered for the CNBC-hosted event. It was an especially spirited moment compared to his first two debates, during which Cruz hit his talking points but stopped short of delivering breakout performances.
From Frank Luntz focus group...
During a live post-debate "Kelly File," Frank Luntz talked to a focus group of Republican voters about their reaction to the third GOP debate. The participants had an overwhelmingly positive response to Ted Cruz's criticism of the CNBC debate moderators and their "biased" line of questioning."The questions that have been asked so far in this debate illustrate why the American people don't trust the media," Cruz said to applause. "How about talking about the substantive issues?"
On a scale of 0 to 100, both conservative and moderate participants hit as high as a 98 favorable rating to Cruz's statement.
Luntz revealed "that in more than 15 years of focus groups, no line had ever been received so favorably...EVER!"
Conservatives need their own 24/7 news channel.

AND / OR
Fox News this early AM:
Rubio wins big, Trump loses bigger, boy what a guy that John Kasich is.
Hannity did well by Cruz. Most of his analyst were very approving of the smackdown Cruz gave the moderators.
I saw that. It was refreshing. Hannity or someone else mentioned the possibility of a debate moderated by Sean, Mark and Rush.
I would love to see that. Go around the GOPe.
It is. The most-mentioned names on Facebook after the debate were:
1) Cruz
2) Trump
3) Carson
4) Rubio
Actually, O’Reilly said Cruz avoided the debt ceiling question which was untrue. After Cruz scolded the moderators and the media in general, the moderator wouldn’t extend his time to answer the question.
Here in New Hampshire there is virtually a “media” blackout on Cruz.
I listen to the radio every day going to and coming from work and it is all politics and yet I believe I have heard Cruz’s name mentioned once or twice in the last 6+ months.
Ted who? Saw that. It was disgusting.
Reminds me why I don't watch Fox much anymore. Looking forward to listening to Levin.
Jebby and Kasich better be out of the race. Levin will really chew them up and spit them out big time.
Fox News and uncle Bill have always “been in the tank” for both the Republican Party and little “Jebbie Jabber.”
Ted Cruz is the most intelligent of all the candidates and never “minces words” when speaking or by speaking in political “tongues” unbeknownst to the unwashed.
I will vote for Trump but Cruz is my first choice.
Sounds strange??????? No, Trump can be the vicious “attack dog” that bites while Cruz feeds him the vitamins to do the job as vice-president.
Cruz did a great slam of media.
