Cruz is my man, but he is almost as pedantic as Trump and to the great unwashed, not electable to them..
A good principle to guide me through life: “This is all I have come to expect, standard lackluster performance. Trust nothing, believe no one and realize it will only get worse…”

You may have to dislike him a bit longer Jorge as only he and Jeb! have people on the ground and infrastructure in place to ensure their name is on the ballot. The others have no presence, and time is rapidly running out... Only Jeb! and Trump Truly in the Race You keep posting that link, which is just one guy's opinion, as if it were the definitive take on the election. It's not. Do you REALLY think that Cruz could get the big donors backing him if he didn't have a ground game and an overall strategy to win? REALLY.... ? Cruz has one of the better ground games going and still has more of his money than the others.

Rather moot if Cruz (and the others) don't get their azz in gear and ensure they qualify to have their names on the primary voting ballots come March and beyond.
I like Cruz (above all the pack), however reality is he will NOT get the GOP nomination.
If you think otherwise, are you willing to place a bet? You want me to take a longshot against the field? Not much of a gambler, are you?

Spot on, but you are pissing up a rope... First time I said Trump Can Kiss My Ass was when he called our POWs “losers.” His lame half-assed attempts to apologize did not satisfy this veteran.

Sure....... but I'm a gambler. So.......
The currency is bullets.
Odds are 6-1 against Cruz.
You pick.

For clarification (and post for posterity)...
You bet Ted Cruz WILL be the 2016 GOP nomination for POTUS?

You bet Ted Cruz WILL be the 2016 GOP nomination for POTUS? I'll take him at 6 to 1 odds, which is a very generous bet for you, considering how many candidates are in the race. I'm sure Vegas has his odds much longer. You DO understand how gambling works, don't you? For posterity, of course.

George Bush had been President for seven months when the Towers came down.
Bloomberg Television: STEPHANIE RUHLE, host: In order to be the president of the United States, you have to be a leader. We have not seen your soft hand. We have seen your offense, but George Bush had to stand in front of America after 9/11, Barack Obama did after Sandy Hook. Help us understand who Donald Trump is as a man. I need to know that you will make us feel a safe and you will make us feel proud.
TRUMP: I think I have a bigger heart than all of them. I think I’m much more competent than all of them. When you talk about George Bush—I mean, say what you want, the World Trade Center came down during his time.
RUHLE: Hold on. You can’t blame George Bush for that.
TRUMP: He was president, OK. Blame him or don’t blame him, but he was president. The World Trade Center came down during his reign.”
A Doe walks out of the woods today and says, that is the last time I'm going to do that for Two Bucks.

If you think otherwise, are you willing to place a bet? Just like I stated from the outset, I'm willing to bet Ted Cruz DOESN'T win the 2016 GOP nomination for POTUS. That's my position, and hasn't nor will it change. If you believe Cruz IS going to win the 2016 GOP nomination for POTUS, then put up.

I don't know if you are an idiot, or if you think I am, but I offered YOU a bet in as fair a way as possible. Your ignorance is showing.

you DON'T know how gambling works. I'm wagering that Ted Cruz is NOT going to be the 2016 GOP nomination for the GOP. You're wagering that Cruz WILL be the GOP nominee. If you're right (win) I'll owe you 6 (six) boxes of bullets. If I'm right, you're only putting up 1 (one) box of bullets (as you honestly don't have confidence Cruz will pull it off). Do I have the terms correct?

Oh, and BTW, it may sound funny but I hope I loose the bet as Cruz (as I've stated numerous times) is my pick of the litter. I just honestly believe he's not going to gain traction and end up as the GOP's nominee. In all honesty, I doubt Trump is going to get the nomination either. I firmly believe the GOP/RNC, MSM, Wallstreet, ect. will find some way to make Jeb! the GOP nominee when all is said and done.

It's a "no lose" bet for you since you like Cruz anyhow. I'll probably be so glad to win that I'll settle for some cheap cup and cores.

"I just honestly believe he's not going to gain traction and end up as the GOP's nominee."
Take out the two most hated candidates, Bush and Trump.
Then Cruz's chances are as good as anyone remaining.
