I made up the number 12 but I doubt there are many Republicans in that district. And you answer your questions Mr. Haney gets none unless those seven were virtually the only voters.

Read the link for yourself.

I am a liberal Democrat who plans on voting for Cruz.

One debate remark months ago is "a lot of time"?

May I ask why you're jumping from a liberal Democrat to a far right-wing conservative ?

Have you listened to what Cruz actually says? Or are you capable only of hearing the media filter of what he says? He is saying nothing that Bill Clinton, Hubert Humphrey, Scoop Jackson or Edmund Muskie could not have said, except maybe on abortion.

Even as to immigration most of those would have been in favor only of legal immigration where the immigrants did not plan on drawing benefits. In short, listen to Cruz, not the media on Cruz.

Try again, with something other than snippets and sound bites juxtaposed over subliminal footage.

Don't need to try again - the man is a Bible-thumping liar ... but I'm glad he's got your vote as he's gonna need all the help he can get in NY.

Aye, state your real party affiliation and candidate that you support, I'm no longer buying what they're concocting in Dexter's Laboratory.
Well Said. Cruz will never be the president of the USA. And if the GOP manages to steal the nomination from Trump and hands it to someone else, I predict the only way Cruz ends up with it is if they can't find anyone else to take the position.
