" "You want to lose elections? Stand for nothing," Cruz said. "All of us remember President Dole and President McCain and President Romney. Those are good men. They are decent men. But when you don't stand and draw a clear distinction, when you don't stand for principle, Democrats celebrate." "

...ummm, no ted - there was a clear distinction and they all did stand on the republican "principle(?)" - which is exactly why Democrats celebrated - do yourself a favor ted and remember Pogo - "We have met the enemy and he is us" - it applies to republicans more now than ever before...

Funny, why wasn't Ted standing on his principles in the Fall of 2012?


i.e. calling out Romney for "not standing for anything"? Did Ted EVER criticize Romney once the Primaries were over...or even when they started?

Ever notice the Ideologues TALK a good game on "We gotta stand for rock-solid principles"....but still go out and loudly and enthusiastically support the guys they LATER (after they lose) claim "stood for nothing"?

the repub/con base is smitten with Ted Cruz. they will follow him over the cliff.

 

[as seen on tv]

so to sum up - you prefer politicians without principles?

you've found the perfect match with the democratic party

...but therein lies the problem - they campaign on their "core-values" during the primary appealing to their far right base to win - then in a general election they must "etch-a-sketch" their rhetoric in order to appeal to "normal" Americans but by then it's too late and people recognize them for what they really are - far right ideologues.

Again, they are their own worst enemy yet they blame their problems on everyone else...

...no, to sum it up - I prefer politicians that stand on their principals instead of having one set to get the nomination and a second set to try and win a general election.

...the wingers love this guy - and as we all know, because his father told us so, he is the "chosen one"...
