Glenn Beck knew exactly what he was doing ... what he was implying ... he’s not going daft on us ... rather he’s deliberately trying to sabotage ted cruz ...

Beck is still waiting for the “white horse” Mormon to enter the race and fulfill prophecy.

Yesterday he was yammering on and on about how Geller should have never had her event because it offended the poor Mooselimbs.

Ralphy is an opportunist. Like all good Mormons, its about MONEY.

Beck should ask his “church” elders why they support a man that is a murderer, a thief and habitual liar. Yet the elders wont kick the old bastard out because 10% of what he has stolen means a lot to the church.

Come on Beck, Ask them why they allow Harry Reid to remain in the church.

Beck KNOWS what the media do. He should be responsible enough to frame his statements in such a way that they they wouldn’t so easily be taken out of context to suit the official meme.

Who is the best communicator?
Cruz

Who is the best on policy?
Cruz

Who can raise the money?
Bush

What are the particular candidates strong points, and what are their weak points?

Bush is by far the strongest democrat in the race, and the media will love him until the general election when they will decide he is a right-wing extremist (a claim that only informed voters will know is false). He may buy the nomination with his unlimited budget.

Cruz is the strongest of the republican candidates, and the media will also portray him as a right-wing extremist. The difference is that Cruz will be able to articulate his positions and explain why they are good for America and Americans. If elected, he has a chance to preserve America as a free country.

I listened to his show. What he said was basically he can’t government because we are so divided culturally. Then he went on to say UNLESS... certainly things happen. Kind of like it’s hard to have a conservative president in a liberal culture.

I propose a live debate between Ted Cruz and Glen Beck on his show and let Glen have Ted Cruz respond to Glen Beck’s unfounded BS.

Do you people even listen to Glenn Beck's show???

All he does is fawn over Cruz. He has literally said "Cruz is America's best hope."
