Despite what he wants you to think, Ted Cruz is not the great anti-politician of our time. In fact, he may be our most potent symbol of everything that is wrong with modern politics.
This would be hard to believe if you’ve been listening to him, of course. He desperately wants to be thought of as the one principled man in Washington—at least if your values hew closely to those of the Tea Party—but that posturing has alienated much of the party establishment. Ted Cruz attributes that development to them being “squishes,” while the rest of the world suspects it’s because Cruz is the kind of guy who goes around calling his co-workers names like “squishes.”
Of course, being a showboat is forgivable in American politics; if it wasn’t, Bill Clinton wouldn’t still be as popular as he is today. The bigger problem with Cruz is that the thematic basis for his showboating—that he won’t sell out like the rest of the Washington phonies—is a whole lot of bunk, like the rest of his campaign.

That’s impressive and important in a candidate. Did he go into detail as to his method?
I'm at a place now where if a supposed conservative candidate is taking huge donations from those with an anti-conservative agenda, I want to know why.
In Rozsa’s 2012 Rutgers University Doctorate dissertation, entitled, ‘To One Subject Only’: Grover Clevland’s 1887 State of the Union Address,” he attributes his parents, Lance and Pamula for “footing my bills.” He is between 30 and 34 years of age. He may be still living with his parents.
At LinkedIn, Heidi Cruz is listed as Managing Director at Goldman, Sachs & Co. I should have looked at Wikipedia. Sorry.

If this screed is a representative example of his work, Rozsa has a chance to become the most incompetent historian in....well, history.
Is this all that is required of a PhD candidate these days?

Hire a teenager while they still know everything.
If the GOP is against him, that’s reason enough to vote for him in the primaries. Something has got to be done about those folks.
Gop-eSTAB has to know that they’re going down, and their behavior will sooner or later reflect that.
Ted is going to make DC listen one way or the other, and he’s pretty much driven the wheat from the chaff. Chaff goes bye-bye in ‘16 and ‘18.
Imagine the bench Ted meanwhile is building to replace the reptile chaff!
This pompous screed should earn the sniveling little mouse, Matthew Rozsa, two free drinks from the drunken fascist who runs the psychopathic Salon.
Wipe your runny nose, Matthew, and tell your two mommies to change your oil and sparkplugs.
Ok you can take off the fake nose, glasses, moustache and beard ahole.
