"If we must have an enemy at the head of Government, let it be one whom we can oppose, and for whom we are not responsible, who will not involve our party in the disgrace of his foolish and bad measures." - Alexander Hamilton "We don't intend to turn the Republican Party over to the traitors in the battle just ended. We will have no more of those candidates who are pledged to the same goals as our opposition and who seek our support. Turning the Party over to the so-called moderates wouldn’t make any sense at all." -- President Ronald Reagan "A thing moderately good is not so good as it ought to be. Moderation in temper is always a virtue; but moderation in principle is always a vice." - Thomas Paine 1792 "It does not take a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of men." - Samuel Adams "If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams " Always vote for principle, though you may vote alone, and you may cherish the sweetest reflection that your vote is never lost." - John Quincy Adams

Poor Ted...

[svcw]

80 delegates separate Cruz and trump....

[KansasGirl]

Go Cruz!

[arl295]

Wow, Cruz is delusional

The media has been out for Trump since day one

The media, DNC, RNC have been after Trump

Cruz, is just mad that a majority of the voting public think he is “creepy”

[Psalm 144]

Poor Ted...

***********

He’s working hard on being a one term senator. Oh well.

[ObamahatesPACoal]

Cruz is delusional.

The media want Trump robbed.

[Will88]

Ted sounds more bizarre with each new day.

[topfile]

Cruz only so happy to ride Romney’s coattails. Cruz is for winning by all means possible even if it means denying the peoples voice.

[tatown]

It’s the Glenn Beck effect.

[tumblindice]

Cruz’s ennui leads to mild butthurt. The butthurt turns into sharp sciatica.
Then fever & fatal flop sweat, and finally, furious flurries of fantastic flatulence.

[SubMareener]

I could have and I do often, but as Mitt Romney rightly observed, the fact that Donald won’t hand over his tax returns suggests there’s a bombshell in there.

So why hasn’t Ted Cruz released his schedule A&B pages from his returns? Are there any bombshells in the details of his income and deductions? We would at least get a list of the charities to which he and Heidi contributed.

Ted Ted, It’s like I hardly knew you. This interview sounds like desperation. I was a Trump or Cruz gal but stuff like this is making it harder and harder to support Ted. Ted agreeing with Mitt and demanding tax returns. Shame.

[SubMareener]

Next primaries are winner takes all. Florida and Ohio. Ted is not on line to take either of them.

[Smokin' Joe]

The media has been out for Trump since day one

On which issue? Ms Kelly's alleged exsanguination?

It has been reality teevee banter all the way, not very substantive nor seriously issues related.

But as any TV personality will tell you, there is no such thing as bad publicity, especially building name recognition (and it keeps the other guys below the fold).

“Cruz is for winning by all means possible even if it means denying the peoples voice.”

Another very true statement! In that regard, he’s no better than Romney! Both seem to operate along the lines of a quasi-dictator.

Better yet: why hasn’t a single presstitute asked CRuz about him hypocritically asking for Trump’s returns without releasing his own.

[svcw]

How sad that a solid Constitutional Conservative might lose to a loud mouth oaf.

[Lakeshark]

I still like Cruz, but the stuff he is saying makes me not want to listen to him. Claiming there is a bombshell in the tax returns, or that the media wants Trump so he can lose to Hillary is the kind of stuff I expect from the Clintons.

It makes him look desperate.

[Just mythoughts]

Wonder why Cruz is pulling out of Mississippi? Is that a Rubio state?
