He’s already passed that attitude to his lovely daughter so his work is done.
If you think we’re in the end times and believe it, then voting surely does not matter.
You like him. He is a hot head just like Obama. My wife said he will be crying just like Obama if he doesn’t have his way.
Time to bring out my old tagline.
I am not even speaking about McCain. Cruz is a hothead just like Obama.
As opposed to members of the GOPe who, like Obama, prefers to use the Constitution as roll of toilet paper.
Both Dole and McCain had their chance and no one wanted what they had to offer.
Trivial mistake by Cruz. Let’s look at McCain’s HUGE mistakes: gang of 8 on court appointments, campaign finance leftism, Arab Spring foreign policy flops, global warming junk science believer, and on and on.
“Yes, the Republican party has to get back to right of center, but; it has to be done from within.”
I’m from “within” and have been for 50 plus years, I recognize Senator Cruz as being from “within”. “Withins” have been contributing, knocking on doors, making phone calls and giving support to the Republican party since before I could vote. The problem appears to be that the game has changed from being a competition to an exhibition with our “team”, the Republicans, becoming the Washington Generals to the democrats Harlem Globe trotters. The Conservatives I know are tired of being the “withins” and want a real team with the goal of winning. This means we need real Republicans like Senator Cruz instead of backdoor democrats like John McCain.
McCain could not be acting more like a douchebag.
McCain is an egotistical PITA who should have had the decency to retire after the end of his last term. However, I don't see what you guys are talking about. I've looked at McCain's quotes and what I see is the leftist media trying to stir things up by making up things. And you fell into the trap.
The article in this thread bears this out: John McCain's Fake Fight With Ted Cruz Over Guns on Military Bases (Bloomberg News Defends Cruz!)
This looks like another case of "I'll believe anything said about [insert name of person you don't like] as long as it's bad."
I'm not feeling all warm and fuzzy about this.
Examples of Cruz rage, please......
That's between quotation marks, and douchy.
Ted's original remarks, OTOH, were misrepresented, as Bloomberg reported.
How do you know McCain was attacking Cruz? It sounds like an innocuous remark to me.
I have to admit, I stole it from Mark Levin 8-)
It works well in certain situations.
Maybe I’m giving McCain too much credit, but I don’t think he aimed that remark at Cruz. I think it was just an attempt at humor.
Plays well with others:
In the landmark case of District of Columbia v. Heller, Cruz assembled a coalition of 31 states in defense of the principle that the 2nd Amendment guarantees an individual right to keep and bear arms.
Cruz presented oral argument for the amici states in the companion case to Heller before the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit.
Has a long history as a Republican:
Domestic Policy Advisor to U.S. President George W. Bush on the 2000 Bush-Cheney campaign.
On November 14, 2012, Cruz was appointed vice-chairman of the National Republican Senatorial Committee.
Great source to steal from.
He always manages to sound like a gentleman even when having a yelling tirade ;)
I have turned down his reelection cry for funds three times this month. First he wasn’t decided, then his wife tried, then he did. I think he should retire if the seat will stay Rep.
Do you have a suggestion as to who may be a “team” player who can get the Republican party back on track?
Perhaps John Kasich. I recall he was highly respected and left somewhat frustrated.
