The best part is that he appears to be squeaky clean.

That doesn't mean anything. They will simply make something up, true or not. They are nothing but slimey scumbags who could care less about the truth.

Remember Herman Cain?

Worth watching! Cruz is quite impressive. He speaks to the point in straight talk to decipher the typical Washington double-talk. He has his facts together and throws Reid’s hypocritical words right back to him. In a mere few minutes he distilled this to a clear explanation of his unanimous consent requests. He is calm, collected and deliberate. How refreshing compared to the muddled minds attacking him.

Thank you Texas. If I could trade you a Durbin and Kirk (and I’ll even throw in a Duckworth) I would do it in a heartbeat.

After that trial by mud fire in the Primary Runoff, if there was anything not squeaky clean about Cruz we would be having a Senator DoWorst.

If the Senate is going to amend it we need a Senator to insert an amendment that all federal employees, including Congress and everybody in the regime, be subject to exactly the same requirements as every other American, and all waivers be declared unlawful, as would be appropriate under the 14th Amendment’s Equal Protection Clause.

Sane here, this man can go all the way so long as the stupid party actually stops taking out their own.

They can manufacture all they want, if there is no truth in it we’ll find that out as well.

Usually after the damage has been done.
See: Sarah Palin, Tom De Lay, Ted Stevens, and many more.

Agreed.

I like when he says this.....

People come up to him and say Ted are you really going to say and do what you said, or are you going to be like all the others that promised same, but then went on and did the Washington thing.

I completely butchered Ted`s words, but he says he reminds himself every day of that.

Ted says it so well
