"Hey check out this selfie from Jeb! Bush!"

"oh cool what did you talk to him about?"

"I don't know, he mumbled something about Gampy Senior, his fantasy football team, and then he asked me about how good his handshake was. Then he told me he liked his Mom better than his Dad. And then he took a guy's french fry off his plate and ate it."

I was going to ask a librarian at the George W. Bush presidential library if they had a copy, but then I remembered that Osama bin Laden referred to it in a taped message and I chickened out because I didn’t want to end up on a list.

I love that Reine Priebus is doing the "I don't know" shrug regarding Cruz's eligibility. Ted Cruz has a The Scorpion and The Frog relationship with the GOP but I don't know which one's the scorpion. Probably both.

quote:


Iowa Gov. Terry Branstad (R) says questions about Sen. Ted Cruz's (R-Texas) eligibility for the White House are "fair game."

"When you run for president of the United States, any question is fair game. So let the people decide," Branstad told reporters Monday, according to The Des Moines Register.

Cruz was born in Canada to an American mother, and last week GOP rival Donald Trump questioned whether he is eligible to be president.

2012 Republican nominee Mitt Romney late last week weighed in on debate, defending Cruz as a natural born citizen, as stipulated by the Constitution.

Cruz is leading recent polls in Iowa, according to the RealClearPolitics average, ahead of the state's caucuses on Feb. 1.


Between Donald Trump Jr.'s photo OP and this, I'd say Trump is on the verge of scoring his first real endorsement and its a biggie! Gov. Branstad sees the writing on the wall, he shall have his own fealty and yoooooge harem in the coming Empire of Trump.

Communism will help more white people than anyone else. Any equal measures unfairly provide less to minority populations just because there's less of them. Democracy is truly the tyranny of the mob.

A strong pivot in the general would only make it easier to paint the guy as an unscrupulous flip flopper saying whatever gets applause. He's already changed his policy promises a few times. And it's pretty clearly all hot air even before he throws out most of what he's already said to appeal to a new crowd.

Trump is already bleeding support into him!

Actually I wonder if Cruz wins over Trump in Iowa he'll steal a few points. It's clear at least some of Trump's support is people who just want to bet on the winning horse.

Yeah, it's the just the oddest thing that someone who flogged Obama birtherism harder than anyone not named "Orly Taitz" would be the same one ask similar "questions" about a primary opponent. Who ever could have seen it coming?
