NASHVILLE, Tennessee — Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz has named anti-Shariah activist Kevin Kookogey as his state chairman for Tennessee.

Kookogey, a former chairman of the Williamson County Republican Party, was unsuccessful in his bid to coalesce tea party support for a primary challenge to U.S. Sen. Lamar Alexander last year....

How come we don't hear about all the other candidates naming state chairmen and staffing up?

We do. There have been several highly ‘conservative’ candidates stocking up with the cream of the highly ‘conservative’ crop from the highly successful Romney and McCain campaigns.

Oh joy. America is saved. Yay.

How refreshing....this could signal that we wouldn’t have to worry about a Ted Cruz White House being INFESTED WITH MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD CONNECTED/linked STAFFERS as it is in the current regime.

On the other hand, if Hillary gets in we’ll look back on the days of the Obama regime’s Islam infestation as the “good old days”.

Hey, AP, sounds good to me. Because we’re all anti-Shariah.

Right?

We hear many stories about how Ted is unpopular with his fellow senators. If it for reasons such as this choice of his...I love it.
Wonder how Lamar will react.

Cruz or lose.

We all should be anti-shariah, but unfortunately, we’re not.
Some do not see the evil that is Islam.
Some think they can use it to their advantage.
Some hope we can appease evil.

Because, none of them have what Ted has...

An Army of hungry Consrevatives ready to roll. A good ground game. A core belief system that we haven’t seen since Reagan. HUGE money coming into his campaign.

This is the dirty little secret. Ted is building grassroots organizations EVERYWHERE (NC, MA, MI, etc)...others, like Jeb, get retreads from failed campaigns. Carson is falling apart. Walker has some endorsements in IA, but nothing major.

Cruz is rolling. This is why he is feared.
