Liberal projection...

Texas Republican Senator Ted Cruz officially announced his White House bid in a tweet at 12:09 am EDT Monday morning, becoming the first candidate to formally enter the 2016 presidential campaign.
"I'm running for president and I hope to earn your support!" Cruz tweeted with an embedded 30-second video.
"It's a time for truth, a time to rise to the challenge, just as Americans have always done," Cruz says in the video. "I believe in America and her people, and I believe we can stand up and restore our promise. It's going to take a new generation of courageous conservatives to help make America great again. And I'm ready to stand with you to lead the fight."
His decision to run for president should come as no surprise. Cruz was never interested in being a serious U.S. Senator. He had no desire to develop strong relationships with Senate colleagues, and diligently work to turn conflict into consensus, all with an eye towards getting things done as a lawmaker.
No, Cruz wants to be president. He used his Senate platform to garner media attention, raise money, and boost his national profile. His service in the Senate was just another bullet point to add to his resume, a quick stop en route to the Oval Office....

“Anyone here ever heard of this guy before today?”
I’ve never heard of Ayobami, nor Olugbemiga for that matter.

So you’re smarter than Ted Cruz? What physics lab do you work at?
That dude ain’t smart enough to get out of the rain.......he totally missed the point of the filibuster. Ignorant, maybe willfully.
He’s actually from Wisconsin and very pro Walker. Makes you suspect as to his motives for slamming Cruz, in the Huff Po, no less.
I have no way of knowing that but its seems obvious that I must be WAY smarter than those fools who actually believe him that Obamacare funding was cutoff by the shutdown, when it clearly wasn't.
Obviously a Muslim, obviously Obama acolyte!
Why is a girl horse called a mare and a boy horse called a stallion? Why do we drive on the parkway and park in the driveway? Who moved my cheese?
Always great when liberals tell us about our candidates.
Nope. Look, I like seeing opponents' drivel as much as the next guy. But, if we go posting ALL the barking moonbats out there, this board is going to get terribly clogged up.
The Huffington Post, whether you and I like it or not, is a major player now. It’s not someone’s Wordpress blog.

“Cruz was never interested in being a serious U.S. Senator. “
LOL, really?
Any comments on the current resident of 1600 Pennsylvannia Avenue?
He was present, as Senator, what? 90% of the time?
He worked where before entering politics?
His accomplishments as a representative?
Zero.
Wisconsin-Madison?
Nnuff said.
He’s a big Walker fan , no doubt. ;-)
