Re: Sen. Ted Cruz Makes It Official

But, of course, McCain says Cruz is a "valued member of the Senate Armed Services Committee."

McCain's nice sayings about Ted Cruz

Thus far, they haven't been able to clip his wings, which is a great thing.
He is a principled individual, that is one reason they aren't able to roll him.

BREAKING! TED CRUZ DEFEATS THE NEW YORK TIMES!!

Five days after accusing The New York Times of bias, secrecy and foul play, Ted Cruz is finally getting what he wanted: a highly coveted spot on the paper's bestseller list.

He is doing much better than 7th place, but we will take it!

Well the only viable alternative to Obama then was Romney. I didn't have any illusions that your vote would change anything. But the thinking of many conservatives to not vote or to vote for a third party guy kept Obama in office, much to the detriment of us all. I tried to persuade you and anyone else who wanted to send the GOP a message that the GOP establishment was the least of our concerns with all that Obama obviously represented.

My view is that if we can't get anyone better than these guys, let it burn.

It's not that foolish of a notion, when you think about it.
