Why Ted Cruz Is Not a Serious Contender for President in 2016

The Huffington Post's The Blog ^ | March 26, 2015 | Ayobami Olugbemiga

If you read press reports, Cruz must be the Schödinger's cat of politics. He is simultaneously not electable and the greatest threat to American politics if he would be elected. But whatever you do, you shouldn't look at him.

“Anyone here ever heard of this guy before today?”

I’ve never heard of Ayobami, nor Olugbemiga for that matter. However, knowing that he is writing for the HuffPost, and arguing that Ted is not a serious contender, makes me more optimistic than ever about Ted’s chances of both beating the Bush/Rove/Chamber of Corruption establishment but also to put a beating on the Dims.

So you’re smarter than Ted Cruz? What physics lab do you work at?

[C. Edmund Wright]

That dude ain’t smart enough to get out of the rain.......he totally missed the point of the filibuster. Ignorant, maybe willfully.

[C. Edmund Wright]

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.

RE :”So you’re smarter than Ted Cruz? “

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.

After reading (or attempting to read) this person's name, I thought it surely was satire!

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?

[struggle]

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.

This is one that clearly warned us of the shutdown=defund folly well ahead of time, and its not the only one

The Huffington Post, whether you and I like it or not, is a major player now. It’s not someone’s Wordpress blog.

Defunding Obamacare would defund Obamacare; but NOT DEFUNDING Obamacare is not FUNDING Obamacare

They got this new fangled thing you should try, its called GOOGLE

[Timber Rattler]

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....

Liberal projection...

[Vendome]

“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.

[NormsRevenge]

Wisconsin-Madison?

Nnuff said.

He’s a big Walker fan , no doubt. ;-)
