re the OP. Actually, Liberalism seems to have it made if "Republicans" now favor Trump by 31% lead. He is a liberal: large government, socially liberal, executive action, government health care. The public is dangerously mindless, more than ever.
I believe the public are more desperate than ever for dramatic change and are willing to turn anywhere but, what is called "establishment" politics to find it.
So true, hence the Ted Cruz revolution. Knowing your political ideology, can I safely say that you'd want the "second party" to have a platform (agenda) that looks like this?

Sad commentary that so many are so fed up that a pandering casino thug is an appealing choice.
Even if Ted Cruz had been born in the US of American parents he would still be totally unfit and totally unqualified to be President .
The terrifying thing is that the GOP does not even have a single candidate who is even remotely fit to be President , and Hillary's victory this November is far from guaranteed . Cruz is the worst of a horrible pack of idiots, incompetents, bigots, liars, phonies , and
losers .
Donald Chump is not quite as horrible as the fanatical Dominionist fascist theocrat Cruz, but he's still a prize jerk with absolutely no experience in politics or running a country , and is a narcissistic, egotistical, power-hungry, cynical,pandering and shallow jerk
who is appealing to the lowest common denominator and is using racism and xenophobic fear and hate mongering to try to win votes .
Donald Chump has zero integrity and principles and tells people what they want to hear in order to try to win support and votes
He's not particularly religious, but is pandering to the religious right to win their support for his own nefarious purposes .
Please wake me up when this national nightmare is over !

| Rafael Edward "Ted" Cruz (born December 22, 1970) is an American politician representing Texas in the United States Senate, where he is that state's junior Senator. He is a member of the Republican Party, and a candidate for President of the United States in the 2016 presidential election. Cruz attended elementary and high school in and around Houston, graduated from Princeton University in 1992, and then from Harvard Law School in 1995. Between 1999 and 2003, Cruz was the director of the Office of Policy Planning at the Federal Trade Commission, an associate deputy attorney general at the United States Department of Justice, and domestic policy advisor to President George W. Bush on the 2000 George W. Bush presidential campaign. He served as Solicitor General of Texas from 2003 to 2008, appointed by Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott. He was the first Hispanic, and the longest-serving solicitor general in Texas history. Cruz was also an adjunct professor of law from 2004 to 2009 at the University of Texas School of Law in Austin, where he taught U.S. Supreme Court litigation. Cruz ran for the Senate seat vacated by fellow Republican Kay Bailey Hutchison, and in July 2012 defeated Lieutenant Governor David Dewhurst during the Republican primary runoff, 57%–43%. Cruz then defeated former state Representative Paul Sadler in the November 2012 general election, winning 56%–41%. He is the first Hispanic American to serve as a U.S. senator representing Texas, and is one of three Senators of Cuban descent. Cruz chairs the United States Senate Judiciary Subcommittee on Oversight, Federal Rights and Agency Activities, and is also the chairman of the United States Senate Commerce Subcommittee on Space, Science and Competitiveness. In November 2012, he was appointed vice-chairman of the National Republican Senatorial Committee. |
looks like an impressive CV to me
certainly better than bammy's "community organizer" CV
Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC)...talks about his distaste for Senator Ted Cruz, who he refers to as an "opportunist" who "is a libertarian when it is hot" and "has done more to allow ISIL to gain a foothold in Syria than any Senator other than Rand Paul."

When a puppet of The Establishment like Lindsey Graham has something negative to say about Ted Cruz, Cruz should be honored.
Lindsey Graham: Too Liberal for America
US Sen. Lindsey Graham censured by SC county GOP
CHARLESTON, S.C. -- Republicans in Charleston County censured their own U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham, saying he puts bipartisanship before the party on issues like climate change.
"U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham in the name of bipartisanship continues to weaken the Republican brand and tarnish the ideals of freedom, rule of law, and fiscal conservatism," according to a resolution passed Monday.

Now enough of your attacks against Ted Cruz. Come out and tell us all of the good things that your candidate: the baby murdering, sodomite loving socialist Mrs. Bill Clinton has done and will do for America.
I'm a registered Republican.
LOL...who brought us such greats as Mitt Romney, John McCain and Bob Dole in past Presidential elections.
:nono: Horn is so pathetic he doesn't even add water....He just eats the red sand with both hands.

I hear what you're saying. I'm just thinking that it looks like Trump could take it, and figure he stands the best chance in the general. Unfortunately, I live in Oregon, and I already know we'll go blue in the general. So far, I'm seeing a lot of Bernie crazies, and that is downright scary.
The Bernie crazies are just that...crazy. Stevie Wonder can see what is going on now, you got the establishment trashing Cruz trying to take him out and Trump following suit,Ttrump is attempting to take out the only real competition he has, and the establishment wants Cruz out so they can challenge Trump with one of the many milquetoast establishment candidates as if any of them really have a chance, which is highly doubtful. Today Trump was touting how he can work with Pelosi, Reed, Schumer, gets along with them all very well, all the while trashing Cruz probably the most conservative senator on capital hill so, I ask you, do you believe that is the rhetoric of a conservative? playing footsie with the enemy while trashing other conservatives? It may be a divide and conquer move or??? Trump's colors are coming into full bloom.
And Trump just backed out of the FOX debate. Convenient, he knows it can only hurt him if he speaks now.

Are you asking me if I think Trump is a conservative? Compared to Bernie and Hillary, I'd say YES. :chuckle:
But, No, he isn't a true conservative. I will say, though, that "working with Pelosi," etc. doesn't mean they would get what they wanted. I can remember Reagan was able to work across the aisle quite well. Someone like Pelosi can be sweet talked into anything....you just have to know how to do it.

Regardless, that hurt Trump, and I'm glad that it did.
Did you support Romney?
