Will the latest news about Ted Cruz hurt his chances for the 2016 GOP nomination? Click to learn the betting odds for the junior Texas senator and other contenders for the Oval Office.
When Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, was a teenager, he was caught doing teenage things, as revealed in documents obtained by BuzzFeed.
In his application to become Texas solicitor general, Cruz was required to list any prior convictions. That included one "guilty plea for minor in possession of alcohol."
Apparently when Cruz was a high school senior in 1987, authorities found an unopened case of beer in his vehicle. They gave him a ticket....

So, the chances he took a pull on a cold one is good...
That means he’s human, just like the rest of us...
Therefore, perfect for the job...
I guess at most the intent of the article is to perhaps give him the distinct possibility of losing the Baptist vote???
I really wonder when the Houston Chronicle will lose so much readership, check that (most do not read), advertisement dollars, that they’ll have to go to a weekly issue, then maybe just close its doors forever...I do not know of anyone who still peruses those full page ad-filled birdcage liner rags...
I really feel sorry for the homeless guys they hire to stand on the corners selling that thing...
Very Funny... hope it was Lone Star Beer..
Given the time and advertising, I’m guessing Bud Light.
Who cares?
Nobody.
Thats why we have fun with it.
No surprise they’re digging up literally everything they can now. I also wouldn’t be surprised if it was a RINO that ordered it.
And so it begins..
Must be members of the choom gang
Unopened? Now that is the crime right there!!!!
Bet he also looked at a Playboy magazine.
This so reminds me of president George W Bush.
Just saying...
The dog was not on the roof...
A MIP reminds you of a DWI? Does a traffic ticket remind you of a breaking & entering?
a little advice.....get over this obsession with Mitt. It was very odd the way the thread read, with your little injections of Mitt into a chat that didn’t involve Mitt.....
Just saying.
George W Bush was our president. A good president, even if he messed up some things. He stood up for America, and he stood very strong for us.
I was just noting, that. Ted Cruz has nothing to worry about from this partisan whining.
That is my point.
Whether you support Ted Cruz or not (I would prefer Sarah Palin, though I have seen nothing to indicate she’s considering running this time)
Ted Cruz is qualified and ready.
I think that is why this story is coming out now, or maybe even it is Ted Cruz himself, getting it out early.
Whatever.
HEY !!! Kid !!!
I still wont vote for your cowardly liberal boy, Willard...
See I figured you would do that....I figured you would ASSume that I was pro Mitt. NO< not at all - long published history - and on air history - of slamming him - including the idiotic notion of him running again in 2016.
But this just goes to show that I was right...YOU ARE MITT OBSESSED. He lives rent free in your head.
You should seek professional help on this. He is ruining your life - and yet you have zip zero nada impact on him.
Kid you can push your golden headed boy Willard till the cows come home, I still wont be voting for him...
never have never will...
No insults, no slander, no libel on your part will move me, a lifelong Conservative to vote for your lifelong dishonorable liberal boy Willard...
So stop trying..
you are really sick.....I was never a “Willard” boy - I worked in Newt’s Super PAC to try and defeat him.
It just shows a total lack of nuance and intelligence, not to mention paranoia, on your part, to think that my comments were pro Mitt. NO. I was saying this was a thread about Cruz and the media...IGNORE MITT....MITT AINT GOT SH-T TO DO WITH THE TOPIC AT HAND.
If he runs again, there will be plenty of stories and threads about him. Only the infantile are obsessed with him at this point though.
DITTO!!!!
The liberal Democrats and Republican RINOS are desperately trying to slaughter Ted early.
TED CRUZ 2016!!!!
