Today the Cruz campaign announced the endorsements of former Chairmen of the California Republican Party John S. Herrington and Tirso del Junco. They join former CRP Chairmen Ron Nehring and Michael Schroeder on the Cruz team
From the campaign statement:
“As a member of President Reagan’s cabinet, I’ve seen first-hand how a great leader can change the course of our nation. Ted Cruz is the proven conservative leader our country needs to lead us to prosperity once again,” said Herrington.
John S. Herrington served as President Reagan’s Assistant Secretary of the Navy from 1981-83, Deputy Assistant for Presidential Personnel from 1983-85, and Secretary of Energy for Reagan’s entire second term. Herrington then served as Chairman of the California Republican Party (CRP) from 1995-97.
“I am 100% behind Ted Cruz for President. As a fellow Cuban American, I believe he will lead the country back to the Reagan revolution,” said Del Junco.
All four of them will be delegates for Cruz. If you don’t think that this is a big deal, think again. The support of these California Republicans will not only speak to the voters, it shows that Cruz’s campaign knows the state, knows its Republicans, and knows how to navigate the waters.
As we have seen in every state so far, save for maybe New York, the Trump campaign knows nothing about the politics or the voters or the issues that matter to them. He gets talking points fed to him and he regurgitates them on stage. Ted Cruz knows the actual people. In every state. The way a President should.
This comes after last week’s announcement of the support of 50 current and former California Republican elected officials.
Sure thar wasn’t the CPR chairman.
It is too bad that people vote in California. If it was only party hacks Cruz would have this in the bag.
You are not alone as I have never heard of them either.
Trump borrowed $1 million from his father and built an American empire that employs 35,000 people.
Ted Cruz has spent his whole life living off of taxpayer dollars and sucking campaign money from people like you.
Cruz has been in private practice as often as he’s been with the government. Do you want liberals or conservatives working in our government?
California doesn’t have a single republican state-wide elected official. Here’s a thought: perhaps Cal Republicans should try some new leadership. I’m just putting it out there because the party is a shell of its former self.
No disrespect to Dr. Tirso del Junco-Mesa author of the best selling “Dr. Tirso’s Hysterectomy Alternatives.” If Cruz is targeting the menopausal middle-aged women demographic. Dr. del Junco is the man to call.
“Cruz has been in private practice”
I don’t think you want to talk about his private practice cases. It might blow your whole narrative.
Do you think we need tort reform in the US? I know Ted says he does, except when he has a private case he’s pushing for a $50 million settlement.
Go ahead. Most of us are adults and know that lawyers don’t necessarily agree with their clients.
“Ted Cruz Earns FOUR Critical California Endorsements”
Excellent. He may only lose by 20 points now.
“That lawyers don’t necessarily agree with their clients.”
You’re right...it’s all about the money $$$$$
Everyone deserves an advocate. That’s the cornerstone of our system and if you lived here you might know that.
Won’t make any difference. By time CA rolls around, Cruz will be sooo far behind, Trump will take the state with over 50 percent. After this Tuesday Trump is going to be like a boulder rolling down hill, he’s going to crush everyone in his way.
“Everyone deserves an advocate.”
I’m impressed ..remember that the next time you attack somebody because they haven’t been on FR as long as you.
Drinking?
“Drinking?”
That’s it? :)
Which is it?
Anti establishment or backed by the establishment.
I’m lost...
