Cruz: “’I will continue to sing his praises personally,’ Cruz added. “But I do think policy difference are fair game’.”

This is what each of the candidates should do. Tell us how you differ from the other candidates.

I just wish the nastiness between Trump and Cruz would stop. Cruz would be heroic if he would state he was withdrawing from the race, as continuing to run would divide the vote...maybe even cause a brokered convention. And he should throw his backing to Donald Trump, because he is the only nominee who could win it at this point, and the Repubs need to win! Trump should then magnanimously give Cruz a top position in his administration, demand the issue be settled once and for all in the courts, and then Cruz is young enough to run again down the road depending upon the decision of the courts. Cruz may also find a more sympathetic Supreme Court a few years down the road with some new appointments.

I thought Cruz said yesterday, he wasn’t going to engage in Trump fights. Yet, less than 24 hours after he said that, he is starting another fight.

Sorry, Cruz is speaking on the issues. Certainly you have a problem with that, right?

So you don’t care that Trump is a NY liberal who supports abortion, homosexual marriage, gun control, universal healthcare, amnesty for 11 million illegals, the Clintons and their foundation, DeBlasio, the DNC, is tied to Soros by accepting his money, back-stabs conservatives, and will say anything to please a gullible crowd?

It really doesn’t matter what Cruz says because using an originalist interpretation of the constitution he is no eligible to be president. So what’s the point?

If you are going to be all about original intent you can’t pick and choose when you will be.

Yours is a low info comment.

About 0.013% of Cruz PAC money is from GS.

So then you're for the guy who doesn't even know what "originalist intent" means.

Good luck “Surging Ted” because NOTHING else is working you are falling behind in all polls.

The last couple of weeks have been “weak”
(Donald says this, Ted says that).
A policy debate is what is in order, and appropriate.
Both men can show there current positions.
Both men can then point out the inconsistencies over their opponents past positions on said current positions.
This is normal, and helpful.

(Birthter, Canandian, Nasty, Dictator, New York values, Blah, Blah, Blah)

Time to articulate how and why (and, even when) they are different from one another, on policy alone.

“Donald Trump has lined up three New York hedge funds, including money from billionaire GEORGE SOROS, to invest $160 million in his Chicago skyscraper, a key piece in perhaps the largest construction financing in the city’s history, according to real estate sources and public documents.” Chicago Tribune 1/18/16

Let’s see, a loan from Goldman Sachs vs an investment accepted from Soros.

I see your concern.

So you then must be very concerned about George Soros' 160 million dollar financing of Trump's Chicago Tower.

Not to mention all of Trump's other loans.

Tired of explaining facts to people who don’t care about facts.

Vote Trump, it will be great giving amnesty to 11m illegals.
