Cruz walked into the left’s latest divide and conquer social issue. Does the left want to talk about Muslim terrorism, their invasion of Europe, the invasion of cheap labor into the U.S., the export of manufacturing...and service sector industries? No, of course they don’t...they want to talk about perceived bias in the culture they own. They know no one will go with cultural conservatives because a huge majority of Americans hate cultural conservatives. Ted, of course, falls for it because he is hopelessly desperate...for anything.
This is actually a winning issue for social conservatives legislatively, but it's too insignificant to change anyone's mind in the primary. Not when immigration policy, counterterrorism, gun rights and taxes are in play.
Unfortunately we're probably going to lose this one in the courts, which have proven utterly subservient to the gay agenda.
