Doubt he’s going to. Unlike Rino’s, he’s not looking to be liked by the media, but I believe he intends to command their respect based on the strength of his arguments.
Above, some have said this article was a “back-handed” compliment. But, this piece concedes that (1) the NRA placed him last- so as to keep the crowd (Walker and Rubio spoke previously); (2) other candidates are copying his speaking style; (3) that Cruz is - top tier, polished, dynamic, crowd pleasing, and that he would be around for a long time.
That’s respect— from a Rino publication.
Sorry Vin, but to me the slurs are glaring.
As others have mentioned, he uses the MSM/GOPe meme that ““Ted Cruz’s role in the government shutdown and other high-stakes fights that DIDN’T TURN OUT SO WELL FOR REPUBLICANS...” That is a bold faced lie. It turned out extremely well and the ‘14 elections are proof of it. Why did he bring that lie up if he is so supportive of Cruz?
Yes, he says Cruz will be around for a long time, then he slams him with the ego card at the end.
“Ted Cruz left the stage to whistles and a standing ovation. He may win the nomination or fall short, but it’s certain that the Texas senator is going to relish his big role in the spotlight for a long time.”
Yes, I like the positives listed because they are so true of Ted Cruz. It’s just that he rips Ted Cruz to shreds with his little additions and inuendos.
Cruz has handled the interviews with the MSM beautifully, unlike Rand Paul who attacks rather than answering uncomfortable questions. He came off as a petulant child.
Cruz relishes what the MSM throws at him and he does a masterful job of listening, then takes away their argument. He had one interviewer who crossed his arms across his chest, body language that defeats their blows. That is intimidation. That is turning Liberals into basketcases. And yes, they hate him because he shows them up for exactly what they are and he does so respectfully. Now that is a leader and a winner.
