Is Ted Cruz Finished?

Political suicide is a terrible thing to witness. But that's what Texas Senator Ted Cruz might have done with his disastrous speech at the GOP convention last month:

    A new poll suggests there is at least one fellow Republican who could unseat U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz in 2018: Rick Perry.

    The former Texas governor would beat Cruz by 9 percentage points, according to the forthcoming survey from the Democratic-leaning firm Public Policy Polling. Set to be released later today, the poll found Perry would get 46 percent of the vote and Cruz 37 percent, with 18 percent saying they are not sure whom they would support.

    Perry is the only challenger that PPP tested who would defeat Cruz. The poll indicates he would trounce two other Republicans talked about as potential opponents, Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick by 22 points and U.S. Rep. Michael McCaul by 32 points. He would also beat two Democrats, U.S. Housing Secretary Julián Castro and former gubernatorial candidate Wendy Davis, both by 12 points.

Gonna be kinda hard to keep the hate going all the way to 2018 so maybe they could work on destroying Mike lee, the only man arguably more solidly constitutional conservative than Ted Cruz.

"Disastrous speech."

I'm sure all the liberals thought it was disastrous.

We staunch conservatives use different terms: soaring, epic, principled, a ray of hope in dark times... that kind of stuff.

I suppose it 's just a matter of perspective and how tied you are to the uniparty.
How to lose credibility while posting:
1. Trump is never wrong.
2. Default to the most puerile emoticon you can find. This is especially useful when you can't win an argument on merits.
3. Be falsely ingratiating, completely but politely dismissive without talking to the points, and bring up Hillary whenever the conversation is really about conservatism.
4. When all else fails, remember rule #1 and #2. Emoticons are like the poor man's tweet!

Cruz-Bot smearing hate bullies because of their abrasive contributions have already been put on ignore; I'm sorry if the rules of this forum are all articles must contain hatred towards the Republican nominee.

But maybe we can pull out Mark Levin's report card and say a Senator with little actual effect on the rule of this country are the Messiahs of Conservatism.

If I didn't know any better, I would think you're a Cruz concern troll. If you think Perry would be Cruz in the 2018 primary, I would suggest you check your premises.

Why not just answer the question, Gomer?   Is he finished or not?   

I'll bet you a hundred bucks he loses his bid at reelection.

It doesn't really matter, does it? He has the Uniparty against him and he still stands strong. That is magnificent and commendable.

Moderators: Typical Cruz-Bot, personal attacks on others, what was your hate excuse three days ago before whatever Trump said when forcing his name in so many world news threads?

Total hypocrisy.

Let alone, the Senator from Texas has done very little in Washington DC; for his great report card conservative grade from Mark Levin.

Bottom line.

They clearly seethe with rage because Cruz refused to back down from his principles.

And it's driving them crazy.

(ESPECIALLY the ones like Tom who came on the forum claiming they voted for Cruz!  They actually think we fell for that line!  **nononono*)
Character still matters.  It always matters.

I wear a mask as an exercise in liberty and love for others.  To see it as an infringement of liberty is to entirely miss the point.  Be kind.

Cruz offered illegal aliens "legal residency" with his amendment to the gang of 8 bill. So, we just forget this, eh?

It really depends on what scenario happens -- Trump will undoubtedly spend millions to ensure that he loses and undoubtedly he will continue with the lies and the smears.  IF/when amnesty is granted to millions of illegals the DEM electorate will increase dramatically.

Trump smears won't matter much as people are already seeing him for the clown that he is.  The amnesty scenario on the other hand is going to have a huge impact not only on Cruz but every GOP candidate running; IMHO I think we're going to see a DEM controlled Senate this election and a DEM controlled House in 2018.  So ... definitely not going to bet you the $100 bucks.
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.

Still wondering.....how many of the idiots 'still' attacking Cruz..... are some of those 'lifelong Democrats' that a previous article mentioned re: Trumpocrats.

And I'm sure that the fact that Cruz received an almost unanimous standing ovation when he walked onstage pisses them off to no end.  And Cruz received rousing applause at his speech right up until the orange.ahole crashed in mid-speech....quite deliberately so.

Apparently not!  In fact, more and more people are coming to realize that Ted Cruz is the one man who could not be bought or corrupted.  He's more popular than ever.
