The recent online poll of 62,000 grassroots activists conducted by the Washington Examiner allows us to make a scientific prediction of the next Republican presidential ticket. Of course it will be Jeb Bush/Chris Christie (not necessarily in that order), ensuring the continuation of America’s unstoppable march towards the liberal democratic progressive utopia/dictatorship.
Paul Bedard describes the situation:
Conservative Sens. Ted Cruz and Rand Paul top the biggest Tea Party presidential poll yet, while moderates New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie and former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush are dumped at the bottom, undermining their hopes of being 2016 crossover candidates.
The online poll of 62,000 grassroots activists provided exclusively to Secrets finds that conservatives and Tea Party organizers stand fully behind the heroes of their movement, including outspoken surgeon Ben Carson, Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker and 2008 vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin.

Ted Cruz is a complete hypocrite and an asshole, which merely shows how stupid and gullible GOP voters are.
GOP voters?
what about the other half?
like the democrats made better voting choices?
douche or a turd sandwich. idiot.
Cruz was correct about Obamacare and “Every”Dimocrat was wrong. The definition of a dumbass is an Obama supporter. That’s the reason the Dims up for election this fall want nothing to do with Obama. Anyone on that list would be better than Obama.

How so? You live in Texas now and are likely exposed to lots more info and media buzz on Cruz than the average out-of-state citizen. Enlighten me.
The financial and societal house of cards will continue the fall to total collapse no matter who is elected president in 2016, dem or repub. This thing must be nearing the end.

Cruz is annoying. The only potential candidate I can see who could be acceptable to both the establishment wing and the true conservative wing – and who has credentials sufficient to be president is Scott Walker, and that’s probably because I haven’t yet discovered the disqualifiers.
Repub nominee in ’16 will be someone completely committed to maintaining the status quo (so that if he/she is actually elected, NOTHING will change from Obushma) and likely as extreme as possible to make the bankster’s preferred choice Hillary appear reasonable.
Cruz is pretty much in ’16 what Obama was in ’08: “change” on the surface, but a insider (wifey @ Sachs, for example) through and through. And he will likely make Hillary look like “the lesser of two evils” to many in comparison, which seems to be desired by TPTB (think Kerry to Bush, or Romney to Obama).
With Sarah Palin scoring in at #5, and Huckabee just below, I fail to see how these people have any grasp of the importance of sanity in their choices.
Rand Paul is right on his NSA views but wrong on so much more, including trying to make abortion illegal. Guys like him need to drop the act to pander to the extreme right and concentrate on how we’re all getting royally screwed out of our freedom and money.
Pretty fruitless to try to guess the candidates at this point in time.
That being said, I think Hillary has the Dem nomination locked up, if she wants it.
That means the Repubs entire strategy will be “How do we beat Hillary?” In other words, to hell with important shit like, you know, keeping the shit from hitting the fan.
The end result for the American people, as usual, will be either A Big Shit Pie or An Even Bigger Shit Pie … take your choice. Guaranteed.
I like the Rand Paul for President, Cruz for VP.
Catches most of the Mexicans, and if they can get the millennials behind them, most whites will vote for Rand Paul. The millennials, of course, support liberal progressives and big government, so we’re finished. The debt will be $20 trillion at the time of the next presidential election. So, I say again, we’re finished.
(Since no one went there yet) Perhaps it won’t be Hillary or any of the above Repubs. How about a 3rd term for Obama? 😉
Worked for Bloomberg.

Here are three big counts against him which clearly place him comfortably in the Neocon category:
1) He wants to increase military aid to Israel
2) He wants war with Iran
3) He wants to keep an “open mind” about NSA spying and fourth amendment violations. Likewise he has been wishy washy about Edward Snowden refusing to call him either a hero or a traitor.
Obviously none of the above positions are consistent with a self-described constitutionalist. Rather he is “tea party” in the sense of a completely establishment politician who is bent on destroying the liberty movement by rendering the term meaningless.

Agree with Z. And – Cruz’s wife works for Goldman Sachs.
