A benevolent King, thank you.


I can't help it if your preferred candidate is a wishy-washy politician. But he doesn't have his own money to campaign with, so he can't be his own man.

It's the game. Cruz has to play it. Trump doesn't.


It's not a "game" !

Bet Trump, if you asked him who said your tagline quote, you would get some hilarious response....
Bet Cruz would know it was Robert E. Lee
That's the difference between flash and substance.

TFF...now you understand the game? At this point in 2011 you swore that Ron Paul had it in the bag.

No.

I never thought Ron Paul "had it in the bag" I appreciated him because he refused to play the game, but I always knew that he was a longshot,

Ron Paul tried to engage Americans at an intellectual level. He wanted to talk about Constitutional original intent and the failure of Keynesian economics.

Any candidate who attempts to engage Americans at an intellectual level is going to be a longshot.

You're absolutely correct, Bristoe. This will continue to haunt Ben Carson and elevate the Trumpster.

If this plays out in the election, we'll lose. Republicans are like the librarian always shushing everyone up. Democrats are the fun kids that make too much noise in the library.

Cruz was then asked, “if you have a husband and a wife who are illegal immigrants, and they have two children who are here, who are American citizens, would you deport all of them? Would you deport the American citizen children?”

He responded, “So, Megyn, what I’ve said is that we should approach immigration in a staged manner. We should start with focusing on areas of bipartisan agreement. Where is there bipartisan agreement? On two major areas. Number one, that we should do everything possible to secure the border and stop illegal immigration. And number two, to improve and streamline legal immigration.”

Kelly then cut in, “that doesn’t sound like an answer. Mr. Trump answered that question explicitly last night on ‘The O’Reilly Factor.’ Will you do so now?” Cruz stated, “Well, Megyn, what I’m doing is answering what I think Congress should do. What Congress should do, and I introduced legislation to do exactly this, triple the Border Patrol. Increase fourfold the fixed-wing and rotary-wing aircraft to monitor the border, put in place a strong biometic exit/entry system, because 40% of illegal immigration doesn’t come across the border, it’s visa overstays. Put in place a strong E-Verify system. And then this final piece is critical, actually have the federal government enforce the law.”

Kelly again cut in, “Senator, I understand all that, and you’ve outlined your plan, but you’re — unlike you, you’re dodging my question. You don’t want to answer that question. He says he would.” Cruz protested, “I’m not playing that game.”

After Kelly again asked whether the American citizen children of illegal immigrants would be deported under his policy, Cruz answered, “Megyn, I get that that’s the question you want to ask, that’s also the question every mainstream media liberal journalist wants to ask. They focus exclusively –.” Kelly then asked if such a question was “unfair.” Cruz maintained it’s “a distraction from how we actually solve the problem. You know, it’s also the question Barack Obama wants to focus on.”

Kelly asked why it was “so hard” for Cruz to give a yes or no answer. Cruz stated, “Because, Megyn, we need to solve the problem. And the way you solve the problem, is you focus where there’s bipartisan agreement first. Once we’ve secured the border, once we’ve actually proven we can do this, once we’ve stop the Obama administration’s policy of releasing 104,000 violent criminal illegal aliens in one year, once we’ve solved that problem, then we can have a debate, then we can have a conversation.”



There's the premise I wouldn't agree with.

Amazing how many men are terrified of smart and capable women. Kelly's simply good at her job and she doesn't care whose ox is being gored, like any good journalist.


We may know the time Ben Carson lied, but does anyone know the time Hillary Clinton told the truth?

Fox seems to have an agenda and thinks it can manipulate who the GOP candidate will be.Kelly doesn't like Trump and since Cruz agrees with much of Trumps rhetoric she isn't fond of Cruz.I hardly find that good journalism

We have not seen any impartial journalism for a long time. I don't expect any, any way soon since they are all taught at the same schools. miles

That's assuming she's acting on her own

I doubt she's capable of that.

At this point, I think they sent her on vacation to protect her from the firestorm of Trump supporters who would get in her face immediately after the debate.

Now that she's back, Fox is doubling down on protecting their brand and taking Trump down in the process.

This is a big deal - because if Fox News succeeds, every candidate from here on out is going to kiss their ass and bow down to them - and if Trump succeeds, Fox News is rendered a propaganda machine and everyone will remember them trying to take out the GOP nominee
