CNBC, and the entire media, is trying to elect the next president. Did CNBC succeed, but not with their anointed candidate? Is the moment where Ted Cruz, the senator from Texas, both won the nomination for himself and the election for the republicans, video( with advertisement):

Cruz’s Hit on the Liberal Media
Lot of anger about this.
Who could have seen this coming, except everyone with any degree of competency or brain function?
More reax, C. Edmund Wright, American Thinker [2]:
There was a disturbance in the force last night at CNBC’s Republican debate, and it left no doubt of who won and who lost.
[…]
Everything changed when Ted Cruz dressed down Carl Quintenilla and John Harwood – two of CNBC’s far-left commentators – and literally mocked their absurd line of questioning.
Cruz did not just criticize the questions; he made sport of them. He demonstrated just how infantile most of the CNBC crew was (Tea Party originator Rick Santelli not included). Cruz flat-out embarrassed them, and they knew it.
[…]
After the crowd stopped roaring in approval of Cruz’s protest, which took a while, the rest of the Republicans followed the Texas senator’s lead, and there was almost no Republican-on-Republican crime after this exchange. In fact, we then saw numerous examples where Republicans made it clear that any of the ten on the stage would be far preferable to what we have now, and to Hillary Clinton.
We need as president a person, can identify the enemy. The democrats think that Iran is their friend and Israel their enemy. And we need a president can lead. Ted Cruz identified the enemy and the entire viable republican field charged. Well done Senator.
