The Biggest Shoe In Iowa Drops – For Cruz!

Ted Cruz has been building momentum in several key states lately, and seems to be benefiting, especially amongst evangelicals, from the decline of Ben Carson’s poll numbers.

Over at GraniteGrok.com, this morning, Steve noted that, “Cruz is in the best position to win Iowa right now and if he gets the Vander Platts endorsement he will own Iowa.

Make it so, Mr Cruz, Make it so…….

HOUSTON, Texas — Bob Vander Plaats, President and CEO of the FAMiLY LEADER, today announced his endorsement of Ted Cruz for President. The influential conservative leader, who has lent his support to the last two winners of the Iowa Caucus, is considered by many to be a key endorsement amongst Iowa Caucus goers, particularly with evangelicals and strong conservatives.


According to Vander Plaats, “Today is the culmination of a months long process that was deliberative, intensive, and covered in prayer from start to finish. I am confident that Ted Cruz is the right man for the job, and look forward to working with Iowans in every corner of the state to help him win the Iowa Caucus on February 1st.”

Slowly, slowly, catchee Trumpee – Cruz is building momentum the old-fashioned way!

Politico: “Ted Cruz has an increasingly clear path to [GOP] Nomination”

603 Caucus (L Wickett) (24) We have previously mentioned Cruz’ superior organizing and fundraising skills, coupled with a low cash burn rate – now, the results of that effort are beginning to scare the Establishment and other campaigns.

From Politico’s story on Cruz’ improving chances:

He has more cash than any other Republican candidate. He is organized in every county in the first four voting states. And he has served up one strong debate performance after the next.

Now, not three months from primary season, rivals concede they have begun to fear Ted Cruz has an increasingly clear path to the Republican nomination. “Anybody who thinks differently,” said an operative with a rival 2016 campaign, “is lying to you.” Continue reading Politico: “Ted Cruz has an increasingly clear path to [GOP] Nomination”

Ted Cruz Files At The State House

Thanks to all of you who came out on a rainy November morning, there was a heckuva turnout for Ted Cruz’ filing at the State House this week, and a couple of history lessons, too – I like the way Secretary Gardner did not just deliver his usual short history of the First In The Nation primary, but also referenced an earlier visit by Rafael Cruz, talked about Ted’s senior thesis, and showed a copy of NH’s first proposed amendment to the US Constitution – which became the TENTH Amendment!

Whither The Alliance?

Whither, not wither! Dear Members, there’s work to be done – we’re in it for the long haul, and we hope you’ll join us in our journey.

Cruz-CNBC-Debate First and foremost, as the immediate followup to the Grassroots Presidential Selection Caucus on Oct 17th, we are pledged to support Senator Cruz in his bid for the White House – thus far, he’s proving to be an excellent campaigner, a fiery debater, and great at raising and managing money.

We encourage all the caucus-goers to rally behind Ted Cruz and to take a leaf from Gov Sununu’s book to “talk, talk, talk” to your friends and neighbors about how Senator Cruz is the real deal, and how he will win this race with hard work, steady fundraising, our help, and God willing.

You. Picked. Wisely 🙂

But what else will the Alliance be doing?

From now until February, the big push is to get the Alliance’s pick through the NH primary.
But that’s not all, folks….

It Is Critical To Defeat ‘The Washington Cartel’

In a clear indication that the ‘Washington Cartel’, as Cruz calls it, is an unholy alliance, consider this: Never mind that the eruptions by Cruz, Rubio, and Christie during the second part of the debate created so much heat that the RNC was forced to censure NBC and pull the plug on the next debate, it’s what the RNC did during the break which speaks volumes about the true situation.

Instapundit notes this nugget from Politico’s story on the debate:

CNBC-JEB-Snooze In the middle of the CNBC-hosted GOP debate on Wednesday, RNC chief strategist and spokesman Sean Spicer and chief of staff Katie Walsh approached CNBC officials. According to a source familiar with the encounter, the two had a complaint: Jeb Bush wasn’t getting enough questions.

The same complaint had come from Bush campaign manager Danny Diaz, though Bush spokesperson Tim Miller said he was not aware of the encounter between the RNC officials and CNBC. The source familiar with the encounter said Spicer and Walsh did not bring up any other candidates.

GlennMccoy-20141216-WorkTogether This cartel, consisting of the leadership of BOTH parties is working together just fine – to spend the USA into bankruptcy, and suffocate it with regulations.

Just listen to Cruz excoriate it in this excerpt (Courtesy of Liberty Pen) from his floor speech on the corrupt bipartisan budget deal:
