WELCOME TO ALL THE NEW MEMBERS. :seeya:
There will be 2 polls!
We haven't done a poll in a while and this seems like a good time to edo TW0 :nometalk:
After the convention, will you vote for Ted Cruz?
This is an anonymous vote. You can only vote once.
you may discuss on the thread, unless it gets out of hand :beer:

BUMP

Looks like even on our forum Cruz is electable. Something like 89% would vote for him. On the Trump poll it was something like 49%. I don't know why any Conservative would vote for Trump. I don't watch FOX News any longer. I wonder why I ever thought it was a Conservative News Source?

FOX seemed Conservative, because the rest of the field was so outrageously Liberal. They never claimed to be anything but "fair and balanced", and I think that was reasonably accurate. They were actually in the middle. There hasn't been Conservative TV since...well, since...Huntley and Brinkley.

Well in my world Fox is the 2016 MSNBC..
-
As i posted on the Trump poll, There are only about `10 trump voters here.
Comparable to a Republican running for mayor of Chicago :silly:
-
I'll vote for the GOP nominee to keep Hillary from the White House.
-
Just another little quibble with the questions: I would vote Cruz because I can deal with his policies and positions (I'm not happy as a clam with him, but the folks I preferred have all dropped out by now), not simply because he was nominated at the convention. If being picked at the convention were the only basis on which I would vote, then I'd vote for Trump if he were nominated; however, as I have been at pains to make clear the last week or so, I will never, ever, ever vote for Trump. Not in the primary and not in the general.

FOX has made a general left shift, but they are still closer to the middle. But what makes up the middle now used to be called the left shoulder... I wish I could find my Au H2O bumper sticker.

Depends would probable write in trump :whistle:

Agree. There are LOTS more reasons that I would vote for Cruz than just "he was nominated at the convention." He's a principled Conservative who knows and loves the Constitution. THAT is why I would vote for him (or WILL vote for him WHEN he becomes our nominee. ^-^ )

"If we lose our freedom here, where will we go? ... This is our fight. And it's not enough for conservative leaders to just say they're leading. They need to show it with action, not with just words. They need to stand with you, rather than only asking you to stand with them. And they need to listen to you, rather than lecturing you -- because only when elected representative in Washington start listening to the American people will we reignite the Promise of America."
-Ted Cruz :patriot:

The "principled conservative" hooking up with liberal Kasich? :facepalm2:

Many conservatives will stay home if Trump is the nominee. His is a blatantly hostile, hostile takeover. Three years ago he was a brazen liberal. Now, as he approaches his 70th birthday, he wants to pretend he's a conservative. Our memories cannot be so short that we do not see through him. His campaign exposed very well his weird childish character. And, if elected, he'd be all over the map because he has no core convictions, and certainly is not a conservative. His supporters now often do not know or do not care what he says. He could quote Karl Marx, Mussolini, Hillary Clinton, or Bernie Sanders and still get their vote. And what almost is as bad is that if you were to quote him you'd think his words were that of someone who has no idea how to improve America, let alone make it great.

What "blatant liberal" would contribute nearly a half million dollars to the Republican party over the last decade? What "blatant liberal" wants state reciprosity for concealed carry?

Who would vote for Hillary over Cruz?

How stupid would a person have to be to vote for a sexual predator enabler?

Who would vote for Hillary over Cruz?
There is at least one avid Trump supporter who said he would vote for Hillary.

In terms of money: the guy who wants to buy off politicians so he can get them to do favors for him, like using eminent domain to steal people's homes and give them to hm to build failed developments.
It's the heighth of hypocrisy to dismiss Cruz as having been bought by Goldman Sachs without any evidence that he did their bidding and in the same breath ignore the proven corruption in Trump (because we know that he has gotten governments to use eminent domain as a favor to him). The facts show Trump is corrupt on this point, period.
As for reciprocity: other than his own self-serving words - which we know from his own book he won't honor if he doesn't want to - what evidence do you have that he would in fact push for reciprocity? None.

Are you now accusing the Republican party of accepting bribe money?
Who "dismissed Cruz as having been bought by Goldman Sachs"?
What other candidate has spoken in favor of concealed carry reciprocity?

Absolutely I'm 100% for Ted Cruz!!!
-
In a heartbeat!
-
Not my 1st choice (cause I want to WIN)....but of course, it's a no-brainer! :patriot:

Betting on Trump, the guy with the highest negatives and the most likely to lose against Clinton. Very strange way of wanting to WIN. Then again, you have bought into Trump's lies, I mean "truthful hyperbole." Go figure.
:whistle:

By the way, selecting the "Cruz" poll question from the header results in an HTTP 404. :thud: Link needs fixing.
Selecting it from the BriefingRoomPolls index, is successful.
-
Will definitely vote for Cruz if he gets the nomination. Trump? I'm not a NeverTrump person but I'm not a proponent either. I just don't trust the guy. NYC values and all.
I hear people say over and over that Trump is a business man and we need a business man to run the country because the USA is a business. I consider that crazy talk. There is a vast difference between a government and a business and I don't think that a CEO like Trump has the correct mentality to become a 'servant' to We the People.
Trump would be more comfortable as a dictator and will become frustrated and ineffective as a mere 'public servant'. Heck, Trump may even fail more miserably than 0bama.

Hey, as a Cruz supporter, maybe I'll join him/her!
The Trump-Cruz reapproachment is on!! We're all saved! :silly:
-
Compared to Colmes Hannity was a conservative. Now we know he was for sale from the start.

The matchup on those shows was usually barking moonbat/moderate, not liberal/conservative. The contrast only made it look that way, but the effect was to slide the 'center' to the Left.
-
Definitely yes, would vote for Cruz. Would vote for Trump but not whole-heartedly, and would be holding my breath to see how he would actually govern.
