This Just Ain’t Ted Cruz’s Day
Well, you know how bad I’d feel if anything unfortunate happened to Ted Cruz. I mean, here’s this Super DeLux Brand Christian Man O’ God who everybody just picks on.
Take the FEC for example. They released the information that caused this headline in the Washington Post:
Now, if you’re wondering what psychographic profiling is and why it costs $750,000, it does voter personality profiling.
Cambridge Analytica aims to increase the accuracy of micro-targeting by adding “psychographic analysis” to widely available demographic data. Potential voters who look much the same on paper — a 35-year-old white woman from Iowa, for example — may have very different personalities that make them care about different things and respond to different political messages, according to Nix.
So what Ted is going to do is gather all the information he can on you, put it in data form, and pay a mathematical witchdoctor to tell hm what to say to you. Everything Republicans claim to hate.
The good news for us: (Click the little one to get the big one.)
It ain’t working worth diddle squat. Cruz remains at 4% behind the other Bible Thumper, Mike Huckabee. Huckabee has probably spent $1.98 total.
Then, his former employer George W Bush went all wacky weed on Ted.
Former President George W. Bush reportedly ripped into Texas Sen. Ted Cruz at a weekend gathering of donors to his brother’s presidential campaign, according to a published report Monday.
Politico reported that Bush said of Cruz, “I just don’t like the guy,” at the event, which was held Sunday night in Denver.
Bush said that he didn’t like the way Cruz was all palsey-wowsey with Trump and added that he is refusing to paint a portrait of Cruz’s feet in the bathtub. Okay, so I made up that last part. So sue me.
They say things come in threes and, hell, it’s only noon!
Thanks to everybody for the heads up.
I a-ah, agr…, agre…agree with Bush. God, that was hard to say.
1Dang it. I’m in the wrong business. I knew it!
Now, why don’t the Dems ever pay that kind of cash for stuff like psychographic profiling? Huh? I betcha I could do that, for that kind of moolah. Yessir.
2Something unfortunate has already happened to Ted Cruz.
His father, for one.
3Bush and Tom Coburn in the same week.
Does anybody but his wife and Daddy like him?
4Why would Raphael crash a meeting of Jeb?’s campaign donors? I know zombies travel in herds but ….
5If you don’t understant East Texas, might I recommend a movie which is only on DVD and you can probably get it at your local library. It’s called “Bernie” (nothing to do with Sanders) about a gay or bi funeral director they all loved in Carthedge TX. and even when he killed a local widow, they supported him and for the first time a proscutor had to ask for a change of venue because the locals would have aquitted him. Shirley Maclaine who plays the Widow made the best comment, “They believe what they want to believe” . Also a good film to understand the sentiment..”She needed Killin'”
6“I just don’t like the guy.”
That’s inspiring. It shows it’s never too late to start showing good judgement. (Or maybe G.W. Bush has the first recorded case of reverse dementia. Where after a lifetime of bad decisions, he has started to slowly descend into a twilight of good choices.)
7“psychographic profiling”, “psychographic analysis”…
Y’all might be reading that wrong.
The Cruzers might actually be looking for the demographic pockets of ‘psycho’s’ in our midst. You know, the teabaggers, to start with.
By targeting just the voters most likely to be ‘psycho’ cases, Ted’s campaign can save some big bucks and get the most bang for the PAC dollars available. Good that they recognize that their affinity demo are mostly whackjobs (sounds like a major case for the TV FBI “Criminal Minds” team, probably cheaper than Cambridge Analytica, emphasis on ‘Anal’).
The best part about it is that it appears to be quite expensive to do this (I’ll bet that the con-sultants doing this are making a huuuge profit).
Frankly, I’m astounded that Cruz even pulls 4%, probably comprised of all those little butt blisters that tortured small animals in grade school.
And Cheney’s puppet standing up for his little ‘smarter’ (bwahahahaha) brother against Sen. Nas†y, as he slides into a primary sinkhole, is so touching. Next we’ll be treated to Mama Babs defending her spawn.
Is the IRS looking at Prestonwood Baptist yet? If not, why not?
8Oh wow! GW doesn’t like Teddy. I’m crushed. And they were getting along so well just a few years back. Maybe counseling can help these two lovebirds get the romance back in their bromance. Ya think?
9@Carol . . . Bernie is streaming on Netflix and is quite good. Jack Black, as most comedians tend to be, is a very good actor and Shirl does a great turn as a woman who needed to exit some time ago.
10A painting of Ted’s feet has got to be better than one of his face.
11Gosh Crazy Cruz has recently been spurned by the likes of Dubya, Huckleberry, Coburn and Chuck Todd. Next thing you know, the headless horse’sa$$man (Trump)will be stomping on him. Boo Hoo.
12Aw shucks, a Dominionist squabble between the dumb and the daffy Dominionist. Hope the media covers the rapture. Can’t wait for all these ‘good’ Xtians to second amendment each other over the limited seating.
13“The Cruzers might actually be looking for the demographic pockets of ‘psycho’s’ in our midst. You know, the teabaggers, to start with.” says Sandridge
YESSSS!! PsychoPATHIC profiling. I could do that… Get rich…. hmmmm.
14I have something in common with Dumbya – whodathunkit.
15Well, ya see . . . The Cruzer is just not able to read “signs”. I know. That sounds pitiful.
These damn “profiling” companies are also used by lawyers to help in picking a damn jury. Seems lawyers can’t read “signs” either.
16Cruz could have saved that $750,000 and Carson $200,000 because what appeals to voters in a primary campaign doesn’t necessarily appeal to voters in a general election. Sure, GOP/TPers like anything their politicians say/do, but most Americans, not so much. They all look like wacko birds to me.
17I don’t care who gwb likes or dislikes the man is a freaking War Criminal! I remember all the lies and then Abu Grahib and the ongoing torture in Cuba. gwb should be rotting in prison with his lying mouth taped shut! But maybe it’s just me.
18As I have already posted elsewhere, Cruz is so preternaturally creepy that even Duhbya finds him repellent. And Bush claimed that he looked into Putin’s eyes and could see a soul.
Do they have a Cruz mask for Halloween? I might get one – AAAIIIEEEE!!
19Not to mention, Bush was around Cheney every day for 8 years, and yet he doesn’t like Cruz. How disquieting is that??
