Ted Cruz: 'The Entire Country is Looking to Indiana'
NBC News ^ | April 28, 2016 | Sally Bronston

Posted on 04/29/2016 10:56:02 PM PDT by Trump20162020

Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, seems to be going all in on Indiana. With the state's primary just days away, Cruz declared in an interview with NBC's Chuck Todd, "The entire country is looking to Indiana. And I think the country is really depending on Indiana to choose the direction of this race."

While stressing the importance of the Hoosier state, Cruz refused to say he would drop out of the race if he loses there Tuesday. "Indiana is an important state, we are competing hard," Cruz said.

Cruz is behind in multiple polls out of Indiana, but he hopes to turn the tide with an endorsement from the state's governor, Mike Pence. "There's a reason Gov. Mike Pence offered his support. He's hearing from Hoosiers across the state that - that don't want a campaign that is based on yelling and bullying. They want real solutions," Cruz said.

You have seen through the smoke. Cruz is on a string like a puppet. The Fiorina selection is proof.

Yes, Ted, we are looking forward to your last, pathetic loss.

If you’re man enough to realize what a sad shadow you have become, kindly concede and unify against the real enemy.

It’s what would be expected of a principled man.

“Change the direction?” Really? “Change the direction?”

How in the flip can you change directions when you’ve already gone over the cliff? Insanity.

Didn't Ted Cruz say the same thing about Wisconsin?

They'll be saying it the day of the California primary. "Well, Wolf, it's possible that the polls are a bit off and Trump will come in third, leaving him just short of the 1237 he needs to win on the first ballot, and giving Ted the big momentum going into the convention. And let's not count Kasich out. His big win in the charity pie eating contest might put him over the top. It could happen! Yeah, that's the ticket!"

Those pictures tell the story very well. Good job.

Trump is the strongest agent of conservative change.

And Even yesterday, Cruz was still talking about Trump's bullying and yelling. What a pathetic traitor to the cause.

And where's Mitt Romney decrying the violent protests in Costa Mesa? His silence and the rest of the GOPe's silence is deafening.

For Ted Cruz, Indiana is Custer’s Last Stand.

The direction is already clear. Indiana can only accelerate or decelerate the speed of the result.

But, if Indiana goes against St. Ted, will he agree that the people have spoken?

The entire country has been watching them all. Seeing Cruz lose throughout the process. Wall street sellout Ted.

"As long as Cruz is playing soreloserman and working in tandem with the GOPe against US, he deserves all the grief we can level against him. Don’t look now but Cruz has become what he’s been fighting against. You have a choice to make."

Funny - holding a pair of deuces, can see the royal flush in the mirror at the other guy's back, and decides to "go all-in".

I thought he was smart - turns out he is as good as the average politician when it comes to telling us that a crap sandwich is nutritious and delicious food, and keeping a straight face while saying it.

If you listen to Ted talk about Snarly heakes it sould like she will be in the White Hut if they win.

I’ve met sCruz there is something in his eyes I don’t trust.

Hopefully, Indiana will be the last of Cruz/Kasich. When they can no longer even deny Trump 1237, they should slink away.
