Check your TDS privilege. It’s not who we are....
Now that is has been revealed that Cruz failed to disclose a loan from Goldman Sachs and has to re-file documentation much like the Clinton Foundation, are you really going to support Hillary 3.0?
Yea, I don’t think so.
Cruz is pretty well much toast from here on out. He’s still my 2nd pick right after Trump, but when people ... ordinary people not Fr savvy people start hearing. Mother U.S citizen, Father a Cuban, then Candian citizen didn’t become a naturalized U.S citizen until 2005 and Cruz did not renounce his Canadian Citizenship until this past year.
Uh? Where did all the Obama birthers go?
No.
More like Cruz had abandoned his effect campaign strategy to go all out in attacking Trump and abandoned taking about the issues. He is just doing the same thing as Rand, Walker, Jindal and the rest. Fine, it’s his right. He wants to win. But he is no longer sticking to the issues. He just another win at all costs politican. I get it he has to take on Trump. Well he was doing fine without attacking anyone. The eligibility situation freaked him out. Oh well.
We will never vote for this Democrat blowhard. Conservatives are being marginalized once again, so millions of us will stay home on Election Day once again. It will be interesting to see how an open Socialist treats the rich.

No he isn’t. Cruz thought he was being oh so clever by dissing Trump for his NY values. Trump gave s heart felt and honest response.
Get over your own self all ready
Are you going to parrot the TDS posters and media (oh, and Cruz) with lies and half truths? Are you going to use Trump’s views from 20 years ago and excuse Cruz’s from 18 months ago?
I keep reading about how Trump supporters are low information voters, and Trump has a cult like following.
It really appears that the reverse is true. Cruz has some very low information voters who have excuses for every one of his inconsistencies, every negative item that is uncovered on him, and desperately twist the constitution to prove he can be your savior. That really smacks of a cult like following.
Yes he is. His supporters, however are in a trance, blinding them to reality. I hope they are happy with their Trump/Kasich ticket.
>>4. His campaign has become all about being a strong leader with a personality cult.
Do you know what a leader is not? A leader is not a person who stands up and says, “I am your leader. You will now follow me.” A leader is also not a person who says, “You must follow me because we believe the same things.”
In the former, the person has done nothing to earn the right to take the lead. In the latter, the person has demonstrated nothing that proves that he should lead.
Here’s what a leader is: they are a person who possesses traits that followers find desirable in a particular situation and at a particular time.
Cruz has the qualities of sharing our values very closely and is a strong member of the conservative movement, but he lacks the qualities we seek in a leader. Trump is not as strong in the conservative values as Cruz, but his leadership qualities are superior to ANYONE in the race.
And they are superior by an order of magnitude!
So, what is the job of the president? He LEADS. He has to work with a Congress that might disagree with him, but he has to have the ability to lead them in a direction that he chooses. He doesn’t engage in endless debates with them. He doesn’t negotiate from a position of weakness.
He uses his bully pulpit to lead the nation—all of it—at the same time.
Cruz should be front-runner and we should all be following him. What went wrong? You believe that we are all closet leftists or mind-controlled Trumpbots. But, the truth is that Cruz failed to LEAD and that is because he lacked the qualities that we were looking for in a leader in this very crucial time where America has run without leadership for more than a decade (the second term of GWB was devoid of leadership). His failure is not our fault. It is his.
Two NY moderate to liberals with a personality cult following. Only DT has acheived rock star status a la Obama and Clinton...
“Now that Trump is making his defense of New York values the centerpiece of his campaign”
Hardly. It’s the just the winning issue de jure for Trump right now. He’ll make hay with this one as long as it works against Trump and then he’ll move on.
The centerpieces of Trump’s campaign remain as they always have:
1. Build our military back up.
2. Take care of our vets.
3. Build a southern wall at the expense of Mexico.
4. Bring back American jobs to America.
5. Halt Muslim immigration.
6. Make America Great Again.
He consistently outlines these priorities in every speech.
What else can a Queens new Yorker do?
It’s a good question but you don’t address it with substance. Maybe you’ll get some insightful relies though.
IMO Trump and Cruz are both going overboard now in their attempt to win Iowa.
It ain’t worth it.
George W. Bush was a supposed "Evangelical" who was as "pro-life" as they come. So what? We didn't get a SINGLE PENNY deducted from the coffers of Planned Parenthood, as they butchered millions of children and sold their body parts. We didn't get any investigation b y Alberto Gonzales. But he did try and stab every American in the back with a massive amnesty for his Mexican buddies. And he did disgrace every American by taking his shoes off in a Muslim Brotherhood mosque while the WTC still smouldered. And he did enrich the Military Industrial Complex by about $1.1 trillion for a stupid war against someone who had nothing to do with 9/11 to avenge his NWO Daddy.
And we all supported GWB and fought for his re-election as if the world depended on it. I donated thousands to Bush and his idiot Rove.
I am done. If Trump does NOTHING ELSE but build a wall and stop the Muslim invasion, he belongs on Mount Rushmore.
I heard Trump is a shape shifting reptilian from the Pleiades who morphs into a moonbat when Venus is trine Uranus. That never ends well either.
“Surging Ted” is that you? Dis you write this? Do you secretly have a F/R account?

I take it from the last few days that Cruznadians hate — err — do not heart New York.
