He must be a threat, libs heads are popping like zits on a teen girls face all over the web.
Run Ted, Run!

I agree.  I'm puzzled as to why a few here object to him.  I guess everyone is entitled to their opinion.

No objection here! What this means is that I won't have to vote 3rd party - at least not in the Primary, anyway!

I just heard his speech and official announcement to run for President.

I haven't paid much attention to him, but he did a good job. 

It will be a long year until the Primaries.     Mine isn't until June 2016.

I thought his speech was outstanding and it certainly aligned with my beliefs. It is refreshing to hear a politician talking in a positive manner about what we can accomplish in this country. The MSM will come all out after him. Rush has made some good observations today about Cruz and his speech.

It shouldn't be long before the MSM manages to link him to a dead hooker or a live boy.

That's fine, as long as they aren't associated with any Dems...

There are a few that are running I like. Cruz is on of them but his negatives are way to high. He has a lot to overcome.
I don't like the fact that he was born in Canada. Not because I think it disqualifies him but that it is going to be a major distraction from the issues. I already see the libs bringing up the Birthers campaign against Obama! Anyone that doesn't believe me go check the kids site! Or for that matter and left leaning site. The worse thing about it is they have a point! Anyone that has had any part of questioning Obamas eligibility would be hypocritical to support Cruz! We don't need this distraction no matter how good he is!

Redbeard, it's a good thing that the liberal and RINO establishment doesn't like him.

Beat me to it. The only polls being done so far are paid for by the establishment, which is the only reason Bush shows an inkling of a chance, they're all skewed.

Does anyone here actually think Bush has a prayer, and that Cruz's negatives are in any high amongst the base?

The establishment will go all out for Bush so that will keep him in. However, I am trusting the conservatives will not sit this one out and we will find a true conservative. Cruz made an excellent point that 1/2 of evangelicals sat out 2012. If our true conservative candidates can get that vote out we will prevail.

WORD!

I gotta tell ya I LOVE THIS, when I head he was throwing his hat in the ring I let out a shout, I'm re energized, finally somebody who will HIT back at the left and call them out.

I particularly Love the fact  he chose Lynchburg Va almost in my back yard. This wasn't done lightly, Lynchburg is Falwell ville, and LIBERTY UNIVERSITY has to be the only college named thus the very name must piss off the Marxists. its a beautiful campus in a beautiful historic city, which I think exemplifies small town CONSERVATIVE America, beleive it or not it is one of the wealthiest cities in the USA & has been since the civil war.

Little crime, no reports of corruption by city Fathers, low unemployment (Thanks to Liberty U and other colleges) and the fact its a railway center. The anthisiss of all the left hates.

Sorry personally I prefer Hillsdale, where they don't allow liberals to teach, and they still teach our youngsters, about our founding documents such as the Declaration of Independence, (not a founding document I know) and the Federalist papers (I know not a founding document per se) and of course the Constitution, why we have it, why we have the bill of rights, AND MOST IMPORTANTLY why the rights enumerated therein are enumerated there.

The opposition will find or create dirt even on candidates that are supposedly vetted such as Walker.  They will paint him as being against everything that he is actually for.  It's called dirty politics and the Democrats play that game the best.  When you find the "perfect" candidate, let us know.

Opposition including rino, who willing work with leftists to bring down quality people, think Herman Cain, Allan West etc.
Though I do believe people are sick of the circle jerk the GOP, Dims and their media play every election, and that scares the shit out of the establishment, they know the jig is up and are losing control over the ignorant masses.

I think you're right.  People are fed up with the establishment RINOs and are finally waking up.
