I've been saying this for awhile. The GOP just said and did what it did to foment.... irrational discontent (and that's putting it mildly)-- knowing full well that the political promises they were making they were impossible to keep.

The GOP did not foment the discontent, Obama did.

Will Cruz, Fiorina, or Carson be Trump's running mate?

Do we really care about debates? I usually look at a candidates voting record.

From Mark Levin's Facebook page. Thank you, Mark Levin for pointing out the obvious.

My brief take on the debate (I will discuss it more fully on my program tonight)

2. Twice now Ted Cruz was treated as a third-tier candidate. He received very little time and was rarely called on. Moreover, when he tried to speak as a”skeptic” during the discussion about global warming – where Marco Rubio, Scott Walker, and Chris Christie apparently accepted the supposed”science” of global warming — Jake Tapper rudely cut him off. When Cruz had about 60 uninterrupted seconds or so to address the Iran deal debacle, he was superb. Same with the Supreme Court. There appears to be a pattern in these debate to marginalize him. Unfortunately, given the nature of these debates, he needs to become a bit more aggressive in pushing his way into the discussions.

He said that he would pick a Supreme Court type VP. That can only leave Ted Cruz.

Donald Trump: Carly Fiorina was even worse at Lucent than at HP

Comparing Fiorina’s tenure at HP to her time at Lucent is a toss-up of bad vs. worse. In the end, neither is a shining example of her executive leadership, and Trump certainly won’t be her only opponent to use them as a point of attack. Yet her improving poll numbers, which earned her a spot in CNN’s primetime Republican debate Wednesday night, suggest that voters—at least for the time being—are looking past her resume blemishes or simply cheering for her as the comeback candidate.

I still can't believe you guys are acting like any of this is anything but a programmed circus show for entertaining the masses.

You must be interested or you wouldn't keep reading and posting things on political threads.

Ted Cruz was one of these liars. Glad Graham could tell it like it is. MAYBE I can bring myself to actually support my party in the Presidential election if the GOP can put someone forward who will be honest.

But seriously, Ted Cruz led the hit parade of lies during the Obama Presidency.
