Trump needs him. Texas needs him. If we are going to help Trump move his (our) conservative agenda, then we ALL need him. It would be absolutely insane to have any FReepers working against us on this critical point.
O'Rourke would be a disaster for all of us. If you're going to badmouth Cruz, don't do it on FR!
Go, Trump, GO!!
Go, Cruz, GO!!
It’s bad enough that a Maoist is “representing” Alabama.Texas must be held!!
Never mind Texas...he was in New York the other day.
It kinda made sense that they chose major cities and stayed out of Austin.
Beto wanted all the debates to be Town Hall Style. There is only one town hall and the other 2 are moderated.
Cruz will tear him up, just you wait'n see.
Yeah, I’m not the biggest Cruz fan-although I’m probably an outlier in thinking he has a better personality than most of his critics give him credit for-but this isn’t even a close call.
Let’s hope there isn’t too much of the infamous D crooked voting
yes that is just what i was thinking
you’d think the good folks in Tx would have cleaned up the voting there by now, given the LBJ expeiernce
For some reason though many Texans are enchanted with “Beto”, whom they believe resembles what could have been the youngest son of RFK.
Thank you Jim. I have respected Senator Cruz throughout his tenure representing us. He’s a controversial guy because he isn’t in public service trying to pacify the rats. He stands for what we elected him for. It makes people mad that he hasn’t always been nice or accomodating but we have enough of those accomodating guys in office.
Go Ted!
Not I; people vote against their own best interest all the time. They are too uninformed to know.
Cruz can “mop the floor” with Beto, but in TX the voters will never know, for they don’t watch debates except for President.
Supposedly, a Cruz campaign officials thinks signs are a waste of campaign funds, but I don’t know about that. I haven’t seen any Cruz signs, but “Beto” is widespread.
Bobby’s family remind me of the Chagras.
Same with my area of central Texas and when I try to engage in conversation when knocking on doors I get the "he's the man of the people" line. Just got back from 2 weeks out of state and back to volunteering for Ted. The people with his signs mostly don't even comprehend issues and his platform.
“Cruz can “mop the floor” with Beto, but in TX the voters will never know, for they don’t watch debates except for President.”
You are talking to a Texan, and you don’t know what you are talking about. We watch them like a sporting event.
Y'all may not watch but you got that generalization way off. My family, friends and most co-workers not only watch but text and talk about it for months. It's like football.
As of the 2010 US Census, the racial distribution in Texas was as follows: 70.4% of the population of Texas was White American; 11.8% African American; 3.8% Asian American; 0.7% American Indian; 0.1% native Hawaiian or Pacific islander only; 10.5% of the population were of some other race only; and 2.7% were of two or more races. Hispanics (of any race) were 37.6% of the population of the state, while Non-Hispanic Whites composed 45.3%.
yes.
VOTE VOTE VOTE!
Thank you! I have been a Cruz supporter from the start of his senate campaign - I have met him in person at church.
He should win easily, but I am slightly concerned due to anti-Republican sentiment from Texas teachers & their family & friends which is mostly directed at state officials, but may spill over to this race.
There were some changes for the worse in their health & retiree benefits, & I have seen calls to “block vote them out!” regarding our Republican governor & lt. gov. It didn’t seem to have much of an impact in the primaries, so here’s hoping it will not in the general either.
Well, that’s the first interesting new news about Cruz I’ve heard in a long while... where does Ted Cruz go to church?
Or was it a one time meeting that he attended?
