And I’m tired of ad hominems substituting for coherent debate.

Careful, that realization is going to cause her to start frothing at the mouth.

...Too late.

His “mouth” is what is making him *more* attractive to voters tired of mealy-mouth professional politician Boomer platitudes. Do you want old-style ‘civility’ or do you want to win and save the republic? Pick one, because the political landscape is such that you can’t have both any more.

He believes in covering those who cannot do for themselves.... We have always had this in our system and it is not controversial with most people, except maybe you.

AHAH! You sure are one to talk. But then Mr. Cruz is not a whiny baby.

Her candidate was Walker and ever since Walker’s been gone she’s been rubbishing the front runners in an orgy of sour grapes/scorched earth postings.

You got that right. That harpy is so bitter I believe she would rather see Hillary Rotten Clinton win, than to see Trump in the White House.

[pompous protestations to the contrary coming in 5...4...3...2...]

There is a war on CW, I don’t appreciate it. One can make comments without purposely degrading/insulting the other.

Will never vote for Trump. Refreshing at first, has become childish.

Mr Cruz, a man I respect would not talk about his opponent in the fashion that you prefer.

Oh spare us the drama, if there is a 'war' it is the one begun by CW against Trump. You reap what you sow, and she's getting exactly what she puts out there.

Now go on to bed and munch on those cookies, wash 'em down with milk, and try again later.

You never have "defended" Trump and you can not control your irrational, childish hatred of him.

At some point, you are going to have to get a grip, because he IS going to be the GOP nominee.

Trump will be the nominee. Cruz will be his VP. Are you committing here to vote for the Democrat opposition in that instance ?

I don’t usually say bad things about Cruz.

I certainly do not make Cruz a project, to smear here. I have once or twice said why I do not support him for the presidential candidate, and decided instead to support Trump.

I like a whole lot of what Cruz believes in, though. I believe he might be a better Supreme Court nominee than presidential candidate.

I am just saying though however, that appears to be what you are involved in with regard to Trump. You are not supporting Cruz, but rather trying to tear down Trump. That is not a productive contribution, either to this conversation, or in support of your candidate.

In my opinion.

Universal government-paid-for healthcare. Obamacare by a different name.

We have always had this in our system

No.

If Trump is childish, that should be all the motivation you need to vote for him, being the childish whiner you are. Check my tagline sweetcakes.

We live in a dangerous time. We need a strong state.

Any one who hasn’t paying attention to the disintegration of the world around us hasn’t been paying attention.

There is a long road ahead to restore America.

It won’t survive by being weak and leading from behind.

Donald Trump is the anti-Obama.

When that happens, I truly wonder how many GOPe head explosions will be in need of aisle clean up?
