Yes, why is he so alone? Surely some of the other senators could stay up until midnight.

[Marcella]

I’m still here with Cruz across the room talking. Isn’t TV great? There he is in Washington and I’m drinking coffee in my recliner and my little Yorkie is asleep in her bed next to my chair. Thanks to whomever made the first TV.

Cruz is brilliant, no one can best him.

[Jane Long]

I saw those two adorables, earlier. I luv that pic ;)

[AllAmericanGirl44]

Get your rest, see you tomm!

[krunkygirl]

gotta love Senator Cruz-—he speaks
for millions-—his voice is our voice

thanking Senator Lee, as well, for all his
very hard work

(the Senator’s daughters are adorable!)

[RitaOK]

Cruz is not Sarah. I know what you mean, though.

Cruz is on his own ticket, after whipping a richly funded shoe-in (supported by the Bush machine), with no help from the NRC, doesn’t scare off, will not stop, and is up to the fight. He is commanding two houses of congress, gutting the RINO’s, taking names and kicking nether regions.

Nothing seems be taken personally and he just doesn’t seem to give a damn about name calling or pressure, he’s cool and single minded about dismantling the socialism gripping our country.

[The Cajun]

Going this long, not letting up one bit and staying this sharp, this guy is made of tempered steel.

[Jane Long]

No kidding. Thanks for exposing HuffPo’s vile bias.

[Helen]

Agree. He doesn’t even look particularly tired. I am so grateful for this man.

[Gator113]

You made my night with that post.

[mylife]

Bigtime.

[Jane Long]

Like someone stated earlier, Cruz is pulling the veil off of Socialism and Commies. And, he’s doing it quite eloquently, too.

[Girlene]

Wowsa, what a comparison. ONe stands for those who want to kill the unborn, the other stands for all want to avoid the death panels.

[MestaMachine]

Nighty night. See you tomorrow.

Glenn Beck ‏@glennbeck 2m Louie Gohmert On the floor with Mike Lee watching History. Thank you! To the brave men and women who are going against abusive power of GoP

[GoCards]

Finally sitting down with glass of wine and watching live action of my senator. Ive been watching and reading via cell phone. Im so proud of him and praying that he goes the distance. Cannot believe our leadership is not on the floor with him. Im sorry I CAN believe our leadership is not there.

[Marcella]

Gee whiz, how is a man as old as you staying up? :o)

[AllAmericanGirl44]

Wow, reading a very powerful statement from the unions!

[mylife]

He is having it all entered into the record.

[txhurl]

My nick for Ted is Rollback.

He’s gonna do it, too.

There’s a lot of it in this thread, which is quite long. Most of it was more toward the beginning. This is not the time to dump on Marco Rubio, or hate Ron Paul via Rand Paul, or anyone else who has disappointed us. If Lindsey Gramnesty himself supported Cruz on this, that would be great.
