Young Pubs crossing to Dems probably wanted to vote for Bernie. Despite the Socialism stuff, a lot of people like his shots at the banks which put so many people into foreclosure. Also, Bernie’s Socialism is the democratic Scandinavian kind, not the old Soviet tyranny kind such as is still being pushed by the Party for Socialism and Liberation. These young people have never known the “Cold War” which has been replaced by the War on Terror.

Question, “How do you feel about 1,000 lawyers at the bottom of the ocean?” Answer, “It’s a good beginning.” I would like to see someone run for office on a platform of looking at old laws and canceling a bunch of them.

See my Comment #169 for a possible reason for the 57 number.

I read it and was impressed (which rarely happens).

There is a non-negligible chance that you are actually, literally, on-the-money correct.

Consider yourself *highly* commended. :-)

I know, but we can’t convince the American people in our own ranks.

the Cruz hate is deep here on FR, and it boggles my mind.


I do not dislike Cruz, but there are Cruz FANATICS on FR that are very, very hard to take. In defense, a lot of normal folk end up sounding like Cruz haters, when they are really just being defensive.

Why are you saying that?

Trump is against abortion. Also he doesn’t lie like some other candidates.

I did agree. Of course that is part of it, but that does not explain it all. A Cuban American and an Indian female American. There is more going on here. The future will be interesting to say the least depending on your world view.

A news babe said it, probably the 44% came from exit polls

I have to laugh at the “Cruz suspended his campain Tweet”

That is what he did to Nice Doc Carson. how appropriate
someone uses it today

If you don’t like the rules of the game and the party - change them.

That is what he has been doing.

Yes, but the Democrat liberal might not know he could not vote in his own race the following Saturday.

Praying for Cruz to go down in flames.

I'm leaning Trump but why do you wish that for Cruz? That just ain't right. Cruz is one of us.

I disagree both as to your conclusion and reasons.

Your theory would have been more plausible had you pointed out the exact circumstance that Bernie is finding, near landslide wins at the polls but trailing horribly in delegate count due to superdelegates.

Adding a second challenger to Hillary would only compound the problem.

I would like you to post how many Republicans AREN’T making promises to you.

I’m a patient man, so take your time.

“Where are all the vocal Cruz bots this morning”

I’ve noticed how silent they were.

Since many of them are on the splinter site that was setup after a few were kicked off of FR, I can only assume they got same info we are getting that Cruz will likely finish in 3rd and that has knocked the wind out of some of them.

Because I see him as a slimy opportunist hiding behind some idealistic notion of conservative purity. His tactics on the trail have confirmed that to me.

Also, if he really is Reagan’s second coming, he should definitely go down in flames the first time. He can regroup and come back to save us all. Or not.

Just my opinion.

The GOPe just put a nice tan on the chamber of commerce hookers. Nothing revolutionary here. Old time influence peddling.

Cruz is one of us.

Cruz wants to let in 9 million more illegals. (or is it 29 million/ whatever...)
