While the fact that he is even a member of the US Senate - much less potentially our next president - is disturbing, I imagine Ted Cruz will provide bloggers like you and me with tons of material in the coming months. (sigh)
ReplyDeleteDonna -- I'm sure of it. He's a gold mine of right-wing rhetoric.
DeleteI caught a little bit of Cruz' appearance on Fox News last night, and all he did was spit out right-wing buzzwords and empty rhetoric.
I don't follow politics that much - I should, but I don't. I just brace myself for the onslaught of news stories, debates, and the like. I'll enjoy reading your blog and Donna's to keep me informed. =)
ReplyDeleteHeather -- I'm glad to hear that. Thanks!
DeleteTed Cruz has delusions of grandeur. Even the Republicans I know see him as too extreme. I predict a primary implosion of delightful proportions.
ReplyDeleteAgi Tater -- Pass the popcorn! This will be fun.
DeleteI have no idea where Cruz got the idea that he would be a viable candidate. Liberals (and many moderates) will shun him, and he lacks the ability to unite the GOP against the Democrats in the 2016 election.
