We need fire like this leading Congress, not the turtle McConnel

True, and just think - before the internet and talk radio and cable, etc, someone like Cruz could not be a major player with so little seniority. However, with his bully pulpit of sorts, he can impact the trajectory of big issues.
A man for these times.

I agree-—and btw, you’re only the 2nd best in TX—I would put Mr. Cruz as the best—LOL!

Cruz may propose but unless he’s able to get a following large enough thats all it will be...proposals. I must agree though that the current GOP ‘leadership’ is weak at the best of times.

The Uniparty system in Washington right now won’t do that, so what will conservatives do.
In the UK, they join with working class Labour Party voters to support UKIP, a new party opposing the invasion of foreign workers....

Amen, amen, amen!
And where are the other potential 2016 candidates on this matter? Nowhere.
Now just watch the GOPe and their milquetoast candidates try to sabotage and backstab Ted.

Only dem-rats play “hard ball” don't ya know!
Traditional Values Folk have to play by the “Marquis de Queensbury Rules.”
Too many “White People” on the our side. “People of Color” don't have any POWER!
It's the “Fairness” thingy.

Weve got to demonstrate that the campaign words Republicans used on the trail were more than just talk, that were willing to honor or commitment, Cruz said.
And if the spineless, low-life p.o.s., Mitch McConnell, doesn't do anything, which is very likely, what then, Ted?

I think Cruz has a good plan. Add to that a formal censure of Obama by the incoming Senate in January and it works for me. All this lawsuit stuff and impeachment talk is not going to work.

Yet, wasn’t the Turtle re-selected (unanimously) as leader just recently??
Where was the outcry, etc. then? And, if being behind closed doors it was ‘fraudulent’, why no outcry since?
Sorry, but as with all things in D.C., until a bill is written/acted upon, it’s all bovine blathering

I hope he stays in the Senate. I think he could do so much more moving up in seniority and eventually becoming majority leader. It will take a few elections to get him there, but I think he could do so much more staying put rather than running for POTUS. We need a Governor to be our next presidential candidate. First pick, go Walker!!

The GOP ignores Ted Cruz.
But wait until the middle of 2016 when he starts winning Primaries and appears unstoppable.
They will treat him like Goldwater and he needs to be ready for it.

Senator Ted Cruz (R., Texas) proposed a plan to stop President Obamas administrative amnesty, the first step of which can only be taken by incoming Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R., Ky.). Senator Cruz, I admire and respect you as much as is reasonable for any politician. You and I both know the truth is that step 1 of your plan isn't going to happen. Therefore, your plan is invalid. I must ask, what is your Plan B?
