“On the surface it makes no sense. I’d want to know why, because frankly it is NOT in character for Ted Cruz.”
Makes perfect sense. When you say no, you lose all credibility when you start commenting about it. Cruz made his case on cloture and voted the correct way.
Now when this starts getting bantered about in committee, Cruz can say his piece and offer up constructive criticism without coming off as one of the two people who voted no on this.
Call it strategery on Cruz’ part.
What stage in the legislative passage process is this even AT? I’m seeing conflicting accounts.
” Cruz made his case on cloture and voted the correct way.”
11 words 4 dozen FReepers can’t be bothered with.
Sheesh.
