Quote
Texas U.S. Sen. and Republican presidential hopeful Ted Cruz today slammed Donald Trump as a candidate who will compromise conservative values, accusing the real estate magnate -- who has run on a vow of building a wall between the U.S. and Mexico -- of being soft on immigrants, eminent domain and bank bailouts during an interview today on Boston Herald Radio’s “Morning Meeting” show

“I don't want to see Donald Trump cut a deal with (New York Democratic Sen.) Chuck Schumer to allow amnesty. I don't want to see Donald Trump cut a deal to expand eminent domain, which he supports. I don't want to see Donald Trump cut a deal to pass another TARP big bank bailout,” Cruz said. “I like and respect him personally, but when his policy is to support TARP, to support Obama’s stimulus, to expand Obamacare…those are real policy differences and I think they are differences the people of New Hampshire care about. I get that in the presidential campaign, he suddenly discovered illegal immigration was a problem, but back then, when we were fighting to stop amnesty, Donald Trump was criticizing Mitt Romney for being too tough on illegal immigration."

Cruz has a proven voting record on fighting amnesty and illegal immigration.  Donald has no record; only what he claims he will do.  I stand with Cruz.  I too worry about Trump's negotiations and deals. I couldn't agree more with Cruz's concern over Trump's stance on eminent domain.  I think Trump will do what it takes to close the 'deal' regardless if it means swinging far left....if it's in Trump's best interest, he'll do it.

Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

If you had asked me 2 weeks who I was going to vote for I had a answer. Now not so much.
