Yes it does. Sen. Ted Cruz could easily become Tom Coburn over the next 8 years. Coburn sounded a lot like us and Ted 8 or so years ago. He, Coburn, even wrote a book about how conservatives get co-opted by the system in DC the longer they stay.
Oh my, that comment gave me a pit in my stomach...so true and sure hope not but probably likely. Just about to give up on the whole bunch! To me, if Cruz go the way of Coburn, I give up on the whole political party thingy - they can have it all - I would just give up!
Last hope is Texas...
Cruz came from communist tyranny... Cruz understands the enemy and was raised to despise the enemy because his father grew up in cuba under tyranny... coburn became communist tyranny.
