    You know, people make a lot out of "Hillary's Supreme Court picks."

    Do remember, the Senate has to approve them.

    That's why I don't necessarily care at this point which of the two fools gets in, but I'm focused on the downballot.

    And you trust Mitch McConnell to stonewall for 4-8 years?

    Mitch McConnell will sign off on any communist Hillary chooses.

    Isn't Gary Johnson an open borders guy and didn't he pick a communist for a running mate?

    I don't understand all the hubub. The guy gave a decent speech and the next day explained why he didn't endorse Trump. Nothing wrong with not endorsing someone who was a dick to your wife. Now people far and wide are saying Cruz is a disgrace, that they're ashamed they ever supported him, that he's not a true Christian, that his political career is over. Seruously, what's the big deal?

    He didn't hurt Trump. He didn't help Hillary. He didn't bad mouth anyone. He had the honesty to tell Trump he wasn't going to endorse. He spoke his mind, encouraged republicans to vote. So what he doesn't like Trump. Why in the world does anyone in this country care if he likes Trump? It truly matters nothing. But damn, people are foaming at the mouth over this.

    The only thing Cruz did was make a whole bunch of people lose their minds over an insignificant issue. And that's not his fault, it's ours.

    We all need to refocus on whats important...and it's not Ted Cruz's November ballot.

    He signed a pledge to support the Republican candidate. If his word is negotiable, then he's not worth much at all.

    And then he publicly retracted that after the personal attacks. Who said it was unconditional?

    There are actual issues out there to get worked up about. The "pledge" is not one.

    A pledge that Trump renounced in March.

    But a pledge he never renounced himself.

    Trump was a dick to attack Cruz's wife and father. I don't blame Cruz for refusing to overlook that. However, I believe he should have just been the bigger man and turned down the offer to speak at the convention. I also believe the speech helped Trump's run.

    I believe this course of action would have been totally acceptable by all and viewed as the correct response...
