Breaking News!

Conservative Firebrand Ted Cruz Wins Straw Poll At South Carolina Trailer Park!

Experts are puzzled as to why voting patterns at this trailer park are in sharp contrast to nationwide polling analysis at conservative site http://www.realclearpolitics.com/ where the "Texas Firebrand" holds a commanding level of 10.5% support among Republican voters overall. At the current "Hilary +9" this 10.5% support among 46% of Republican leaning voters puts "the firebrand" at 5% of the overall nationwide vote. Stay Tuned for More Exciting Breaking Trailer Park News

A memo to all GOP presidential candidates not named Ted Cruz

Here’s why if the Iowa caucuses were today he would win and you wouldn’t


This memo amounts to an intervention.

It serves to warn all other Republican presidential campaigns of a perfect storm looming on the horizon. Not only does the storm favor Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, but your combined failures/refusals to recognize it are only helping him. If that environment persists, Mr. Cruz will not only win Iowa next year, but win it convincingly.

Your skepticism of Mr. Cruz’s candidacy, and willingness to play ball with a system the average Iowa conservative no longer trusts, is helping to positively brand Mr. Cruz to voters looking for a fighter and an outsider.

And that is what the majority of 2016 Iowa Caucus voters are looking for.

Re: Sen. Ted Cruz Makes It Official

Hey, PO!

Bro. Strange is looking for something that he posted here and he doesn't remember his username. I'm trying to find it myself, but knowing his username would help a lot. Do you remember?

He said he thought one was Adoniyah, but I haven't found that and I know that wasn't his normal username.

Breaking News!

Sen Ted Cruz, the "Texas Conservative Firebrand" has inched up in the polls in Iowa!

http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epo...ucus-3194.html

He currently has a COMMANDING lead (over the bottom two) and is holding his own at a WHOPPING 4.3%. The good news is that this "Firebrand" is ONLY trailing Walker, Huckabee, Paul, Bush, Carson, Christie, Rubio, and Santorum but there is still hope for some sort of consolation prize as the (8) leaders are looking for someone to make the coffee and pick up the empty cups.

Perry (3.3%) and Jindal (2%) have been left in the dust as Cruz rockets towards fourth place from the bottom in a group of eleven.

At +16 points, Cruz has his eyes on front-runner Scott Walker, which he might achieve if he picks up all of Cristie, Rubio, and Carson's supporters combined.

When asked about his campaign, Cruz simply shook his head and stated that his campaign theme was all about leading. When asked to elaborate, he proudly declared "If you aren't the lead dog, the scenery never changes". This was interpreted to mean that he actually LIKES Cristie's fat backside in front of his face.

Best of luck to the "Firebrand" and hopefully he and his band of supporters will never achieve their goal of "no chicken in the pot but yes a camera in every bedroom".

We are waiting breathlessly for someone to explain why people who aren't even running for president are more popular in the polls than "the Firebrand".

Stay tuned for more!

Hey, Renda! I will have to think about it. Was there was a horse in the avatar? If he can remember the avatar pic, it would also help put the two together. Or maybe he can remember a thread he posted in and can be located that way.

Hope you and your grandchildren are well.

Re: Sen. Ted Cruz Makes It Official

I can only see our resident anti-Semitic member's posts when I am not logged in. So, I am wondering if he knows he is posting a poll from January and February?

April 20, 2015 shows Cruz in third place at 11.3%

http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epo...tion-3823.html

Still too early to call for anyone and we know the polls have failed us in the past. Most recently, the polls showing us the awesome leader of Israel was projected to lose, but he didn't. He won by a LARGE margin!

Re: Sen. Ted Cruz Makes It Official

In related news, after an epic fail on the Iowa issue, Cruz supporters have turned in desperation to national polling data, indicating a COMMANDING lead of 11%. This 11% was interpreted by the unlearned as a mandate to lead the Nation Forward.

http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epo...tial_race.html

Said supporters were mortified that this mandate translated to a statistical head-to-head trouncing of 52-39% in favor of Hilary Clinton (the ONLY other matchups that gives Hilary Clinton a solid >50% margin were against Huckabee, who is not running, and Carson, who nobody has heard of).

The same 39.3% who polled that they would vote for Cruz also polled that they would vote for Christie or Huckabee, indicating that if Hitler were running as a Republican, they would vote against the democrat. In national polling it was also noted that Rubio, Paul, Walker, and Bush attracted >40% of the votes and reduced the "Hilary trouncing" by up to 5%.

Polling that achieves the same number of supporters as someone who isn't even running is an achievement all on its own!
