GOP Senator Would Back Sanders Over Cruz

GOP Senator Would Back Sanders Over Cruz

"SNIP...........



Sen. Richard Burr (R-NC) told supporters at a campaign fundraiser for his own re-election that he would vote for Sen. Bernie Sanders for president before Sen. Ted Cruz, the AP reports.

“Burr did not appear to be joking, said the person, who demanded anonymity to discuss the private gathering.”


.............SNIP"

I wonder how many other GOPers warned the RNC behind the scenes that they would vote for a democrat instead of Ted Cruz?
