the Constitution does not forbid a sitting US Senator from being selected House Speaker.

Imagine a world in which Senator Cruz also runs the House?

Would be better than Ted being POTUS for us Conservatives

A couple of days ago, there was a report on Fox that gave poll results from some recent preference poll of potential Republican presidential candidates. Two or three had around 12% and then a couple had 9%. The name of each potential candidate was simply used, except for one at 9% who was:

Firebrand Ted Cruz

The only one where I heard any adjective before the name. But I think it is positive that Cruz is at 9% because he is still not very well known. I think he'd make a big leap in any initial Republican primary debates late next year.

Since Boehner and McCarthy are too ball-less to do their jobs, then Cruz is doing it for them.

In all of these situations, Cruz has been focused on his own political future, staking out a position as far to the right as he can. He didn’t care that his antics damaged the party. They were good for Ted Cruz—and that’s what mattered.

And it's also funny in how these lib pundits all think that they know what's in Cruz's mind...very similar to how they treat Palin, who they believe is only in it for the money.

Looks like Ted is stirring up things in DC. I am so glad he is our senator. We have to work to get rid of the RINO Corn hole.

“Ted Cruz Proves Why He’s Still the Most Hated Man in Congress.”

And your fascist, racist buddy Obama is the most hated man of his time.

.....”Ted Cruz ... came back with a force in blowing up House Republicans’ bill to address the border crisis”...........

Conservatives in the House revolted against the Republicans!!!!!!

The obligatory,he is only doing it for himself!
That moniker is never plastered on the the First Black President of the United States,or The louse Nancy Pelosi,or the Senile Harry Reid or the plethora of other self serving Bastards in the government.
Ted Cruz was RIGHT to do what he did,he is showing LEADERSHIP,something that has almost disappeared from Washington,if that leadership results in the American public being served properly then bring it on.
I am sick an tired of Ted Cruz being criticized for standing up and doing the right thing!

[Tau Food]

Don't listen to them, Ted!

Ted Cruz - 2016!
