So I go out to my car to cut out for lunch at a restaurant not yet decided on but also to check out how much money I made on my gold funds as the DOW crashes and burns down over 250 points, I turn on my car radio to listen to the Savage Nation ...
... and on the National syndicated News at the Top of the Hour is featured some Ted Cruz campaign ad, a hitjob targetting Rubio that urges Republicans to “vote for more than just a pretty face.”
I could not believe what I just heard! Does Cruz know how lame this is? Did anyone hear this one?
I mean, I am no Rubio fan to say the least, but does Ted Cruz and company understand this is going to have exactly the OPPOSITE effect the message is intended to convey?????
I mean, I guess Cruz is saying, “I know I don’t look as good as Rubio, but you should vote for the one most principled and not for Rubio who looks better than I do when it comes right down to it”.
Vote principle, even “if I am not good looking like, ah, Rubio”.
I mean, the first image folks hearing this isn’t going to be “Ted, pricipled, Rubio, just pretty” ... no. That is NOT the first image they will see in their mind.
The first image they have, is Ted Cruz’s face next to Rubio, and the thought “Ted looks ugly, Rubio looks great! What a JFK! Ted looks like Nixon.”
Hmmm.., this wasn’t well thought out by Cruz. This is dumb. Real dumb. I mean, I seriously wonder if this guy has the savvy to win this one, much less a lot of other things.
I mean. Dumb. One other guy in the car with me literally started laughing out loud.

I've listened to Cruz's attempts at humor. He may be good at many things, but humor is not one of them.
