bbedward Posted February 5, 2016 Report Share Posted February 5, 2016 I put the blame on Cruz but still say sloppy reporting from CNN that left the impression Carson was leaving the race. Don't count on Trump winning any debates over Cruz as Cruz is the best debater in the bunch. After super tuesday Cruz will still be in the race. it will be a three man race to the finish. I got a 6 pack that says Cruz doesn't win more than 1 of the super tuesday states - I'd say 0, but Texas could be pretty close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't donate to or bet on politics but we'll see soon enough. Cruz is the most conservative candidate in the field and these are the voters who actually come out and vote in the primaries. Cruz will do better than you are predicting. What will hurt Cruz is that he really needed to pick up the Carson voters but that probably won't happen now but he will still have plenty of support from the conservative base.

I'm pretty confident Cruz will do better than you are predicting so let's do something beneficial here. $20 to St. Judes hospital on this? I have never heard anything negative about this organization other than they do a great work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think recent polling in NH has Rubio ahead of Cruz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bbedward Posted February 5, 2016 Report Share Posted February 5, 2016 Will kasich do well in Ohio? Does it work like that? Maybe, sometimes. Nothing works like normal when you have Trump. Normally you'd expect the home territory to benefit people - like Florida for Rubio/Bush, or Ohio for Kasich, but you have Trump who has defied polling everywhere so who knows.

MLD Woody Posted February 6, 2016 Report Share Posted February 6, 2016 I like how you're burning through all the candidates trying to find one you like. I like the fact that he's had Carson on a ticket with nearly every other candidate at some point He's doing whatever mental gymnastics he can to keep Carson in there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldBrownsFan Posted February 6, 2016 Report Share Posted February 6, 2016 One thing I agree with Trump about is almost all our politicians are beholden to special interest groups who pay big money to help them win elections. You know this money is not being given out of charity, they want something in return and many times our bought and paid for politicians give it to them.

Like a job for his wife, and probably himself once he's out of politics. Also is a champion for the big oil guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trump admittedly is the only one self financing and (apparently) not beholden to special interests groups but that didn't stop him from pandering in Iowa by supporting ethanol subsidies. It is amazing Cruz won Iowa with the popular Iowa republican governor coming out against Cruz (for not supporting ethanol mandates). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WSS No, I'm the only person here who has outlined in detail why I think Cruz's plans would be a disaster for this country. I see the establishment guys Hillary/Rubio/Bush as basically maintaining the status quo, which I think is better than Cruz (but still not that good) The only establishment guy I'd vote for without much hesitation is probably Kasich, but I want a Trump/Sanders GE. I see that as more nationalist vs globalist instead of republican vs democrat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There fucking crooks and getting rich, while we defend and vote for them. Dont be blind.
