The person stating that he'd rather vote for Hillary than Trump because 'at least with Hillary he knows what he's getting' is like a sot stating that he'd rather step on a live land mine - because he knows what it is - rather than take his chances and step on another area that may/may not contain something harzadous. He'd rather taken a guaranteed bad thing - be it Hillary or explosive - rather than a fair chance at having something that's not bad.

Which shows two things. First, that a number of Cruz supporters are not rational (and many of the bad things they say about Trump supporters actually apply more to them). Second, that a number of Cruz supporters are not Conservatives. They might CLAIM that they are, but someone willing to vote for Hillary, knowing the impact of any number of things (eg the Supreme Court) is not a Consevative.

A number of Cruz supporters are simply spoilt children who'd rather destroy everything if they're not given ice cream for breakfast (I would have called them Cruz cultists, but that's more vitriol than logic and I prefer logic, but let's just say that would apply as well). The fact that their man was not supported by most voters made them feel so bad that they'd rather not just let Hillary win by not voting for Trump, but some would even take the active step of actually VOTING for Hillary.

You shall judge them by their fruits, and if Cruz ever runs again that is an important thing for people to remember. Basically, if his supporters can be 'Never Trump,' then what's good for the goose is good for the gander, and 'never Cruz' is just as apt.

There is a lot of defeatism in Washington state politics. We’ve been beaten so many times that the “old-growth” pubbies have relegated themselves - and the rest of us - to whatever scraps the dhimmicrats toss off their plates.

They would rather take the “safe bet” even if it is a guaranteed losing proposition - rather than take a chance on winning. It’s monumentally frustrating.

Cruise is hiding the documents that would clear up a lot of questions about his citizenship. He is also a liar. And in 4 years he will still have the same repellent face, and the same intolerable voice.
