FORT MILL - With just a week left to persuade evangelical South Carolina voters that he is the only Republican alternative to Donald Trump, Ted Cruz and conservative pundit Glenn Beck thrilled more than 2,000 of the faithful late Thursday at MorningStar Fellowship, a Fort Mill megachurch.
Cruz vowed to be the dam that would stop a liberal wave, saying he will fight for the sanctity of marriage, return the military to strength, and secure the borders against a tide of illegal immigration.
"I will stop amnesty and secure the borders," Cruz told The Herald before the event. "I will stand and fight for the Constitution and the sanctity of marriage and religious liberty."
Despite the event's being organized in just 48 hours, Cruz' supporters lined up hours before the event and filled the sanctuary to hear the Texas senator promise to stop liberals dead in their tracks. The crowd jammed the balconies of the one-time hotel on what used to be the PTL ministry property.

I can vote/support either of them as I am a TrUz backer, anti-Demwit voter who has long since had enough of being taken for granted.
As steel sharpens steel, these two are toughening and sharpening each other. It would be great to see them join together to soundly thrash the Demwits and the GOPe.

If you prefer, substitute “AMERICANISM” for Nationalism. Maybe it will make more sense to you. Maybe you will have to lose your job to an Indian or Mexican to understand.
Trump will send us into a depression if he has his way.
He wants to raise high tariffs on imports... That’s going to do 2 things:
1. Cause everything to rise in price almost immediately.
2. We don’t live in a vacuum. Other countries will respond by raising tariffs on our exports. They will have to.
It happened before, ironically with another businessman turned politician back with Hoover.
Want to see job LOSS, wait until Trump kills the economy with this moronic plan.

Worth repeating because the Smoot-Hawley tariffs cut imports AND exports by 65%.
Those 10,000 at the Trump rally were probably overflow from the Cruz rally who wanted to get in out of the cold.
How does that comment "stink up the place" and how does that make me "lame"? Can't you take a laugh? How about a witty comeback?
Lighten up.
Trump beat Cruz in New Hampshire in the Evangelical vote.
Add the Cruz's people isn't reading the bio on porn stars in a TV Commercial
Lying about his support for imminent domain.
And Trump gives .00013%. “Yeah, but Trump doesn’t claim to be some great Christian”. That’s true. Trump is not a Christian, but he does claim to be very generous in his giving.
There will many documentaries made about the election in which America almost completely went full fascist.
Cruz supporters are afflicted with The Church Lady Syndrome. ;-)
Has she given up her past? If so, what a testimony! How many of us have become more like Christ?
...except when I hold fund raisers in Manhattan (NY values) at the home of a 'homosexual couple"

....."As with Trump's politics, his donations do not fit neatly within traditional ideological lines: In 2012, he donated to the Gay Men's Health Crisis - founded by gay rights activist Larry Kramer - and the Billy Graham Evangelical Association, which decries the influence of the "gay lobby" and offers support to people pushing loved ones to "seek freedom from homosexuality." A sizable portion of Trump's giving appears to be geared toward charities prominently affiliated with celebrities or politicians......
.....Trump has said he donated $102 million worth of cash and land to philanthropic and conservation organizations over the past five years.
But his campaign has provided little documentation for most of these contributions, and tax filings of the Donald J. Trump foundation show Trump has made no charitable contributions to his own namesake nonprofit since 2008.
Without an endowment, the fund has continued to give grants only as a result of contributions from others.".....
So this woman can change but Trump can’t change 1999 opinion? You are in charge of who can reform or change?
TRUMP / CARSON 2016
Sorry....but Cruz is a Christian hypocrite and typical double-talking politician.
Your post evades this point I made in my post...and not unlike an Alinsky response: “when the facts cannot support your point, engage in personal attacks”.
Cruz is a slimey, dispicable POS with ZERO ACCOMPLISHMENTS in real life. Period!
Actually, the rise in tariffs won’t happen because the companies will believe he will do or and or to locate in the USA rather than get hit with import taxes.
Example: We had corporal punishment in elementary school but it was never used except one or twice. The example and then looming that was enough to change kids behavior because we believed that threat was real.
He doesn’t have to do it. If they believe he will. And if he does tax them, someone smarter will make the same product in the USA, sell it for less and make a fortune.
You’re thinking 2D. Start thinking 3D. Start thinking dynamically.
