Ted Cruz is playing it smart and hoping conservatives realize he would be the right choice for President.

There’s no telling how long the Trump boomlet will last.

I love how both Cruz and Trump have figured out the formula and have decimated the GOPe and have put them into disarray.

And they have done this, it appears, without spending any significant amount of money! The GOPes and their establishment backers have blown tens of millions on ineffective ads! LOL!

Cruz is my first choice. But he MUST change up his delivery to reach more people somehow. It’s like he’s giving a stump speech every time he answers a question. If he could just answer in a more natural conversational manner, he’d be golden.

Everybody was taking control of the debate jumping on Trapper to take the mic, I was saying C’mon Ted they are not being ignored take your opportunity it was frustrating for me to see him just stand there while others were forcing themselves into the debate, but as it turned out he was demonstrating his wisdom letting the others make fools of themselves as their forcefulness turned up empty rhetoric.

In hindsight I think he did very well and demonstrated maturity far beyond any of the others.

Hang in there Ted. If Trump crashes and burns you’re my backup. If Trump succeeds he’ll need a good man as his VP. I think he already knows who could fill that spot.

I love his positions, but for some reason, he just doesn’t come across well. I don’t know what it is. I’m not attacking him, and I’d vote for him, but I don’t think he’d win because there is simply some communication gap.

If Carson were a white guy with the exact same qualifications would he still be on the stage? It seems that if there were a white guy with the exact same qualifications as barky, he would have been laughed off the national stage on day 1 for not having qualifications. Is it because they are blacks who are “clean and articulate”.

I like Cruz’s values but he is too cerebral for the masses to stay awake. Politics is a street brawl, not a moderated high school debate. Cruz needs to jump off the academic ivory towers and land on some heads, then get in their face. The masses will respond better to that (if Trump is any indication) than a boring debate. He has the substance, but not the style.
