Don't be distracted by this... lets get back to real important issues like a battle flag.

How and why does Cruz escape your rightful disgust? He voted for it the first time; today, McConnell told him his vote was not needed. Happens all the time with these votes. Now, he can go out in the field and say he voted against cloture, and since only 51 votes are needed to pass the bill, he can also vote against the bill. He will neglect to mention he helped make it all possible in the beginning.

When in danger or in doubt, run in circles, scream and shout!

Yep. Unfortunately, the GOP is corrupt and is a formidable corrosive force that will do everything in its power to deny him vital political resources unless he capitulates to their demands. I like Cruz but IMO there is no way he will ever be president. The powers that be won’t allow it because he is a threat to them and their symbiotic arrangements with the Dems. That’s just the stark reality.
