There is strong evidence of it, primarily how even conservative media is anti-Trump, but pro-Cruz.

Cruz is unelectable in the General election.


The Republican establishment has settled on Hillary. She'll keep their looting operation going for another 4 years.

And that would be beautiful. Deny the nomination to the clear frontrunner and give it away to some slug who isn't even running and has a grand total of zero primary votes.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

Paul Ryan running out of ways to say he

Who cares, you lost credibility a LONG time ago. The fact is, Cruz is not going to win, he will not be president. You keep thinking that he is serves only to prove that you do not live in reality. The GOP is going to use him and spit him out when they are done with him. You're too blind to see that. You're supporting a loser. NO ONE likes him in the party. No. One. And the majority of voters are not impressed by him for a variety of reasons most especially that he lies, lies, and then lies some more, and that he didn't do a THING except shut down the government. Wow, how presidential...not even willing to work with anyone. He's a total loser.

I actually want the Republican party to die, because I want it to come back reinvented, risen from the ashes. This will be a good way to get the extremists that support Trump and Cruz out of the GOP, let them have a Tea Party of their own.

I have voted democrat, but I am not happy with them, since I am socially liberal and fiscally conservative. I would love to see the Republican party reinvent itself in that way, so we can have a party that MOST Americans want, socially liberal and fiscally conservative.
How is Trump extreme? All of the polls say he's supported by mostly Moderates including the last exit poll in Wisconsin.

Maybe the FEC will have Cruz arrested at the Convention.

It's just a funny video in the context of whether people like Cruz or not. That's all.
I just keep think of all of the speeches he'd make if he was President, pausing for effect in every sentence so you can soak up what he said and appreciate the wonder that is him. Shoot me now. I'd rather hear Clinton, bark.

I voted for him in my state's primary. Although I find his demeanor somewhat abrasive and annoying, I agree with him on most issues (about equal to Trump, who also has some personality flaws). Heck, I'd vote for Bozo the Clown if I thought he could turn this country around.

I'd vote for Bozo the Clown if my choice were Hillary or Bozo. Any Rep candidate is better than Hillary. I don't care who it is anymore as long as it's not her in the White House. Even back stabbing, two faced Romney is better than Hillary.
