Clearly, Cruz is not ready for the big leagues. This was an opportunity to identify liberal hypocrisy and contrast this with their treatment of Obama.
But, instead, like most GOP, Cruz grabs his ankles and asks for more.
You're talking like it's a game -- or a war -- between two players, the candidate and the media.
But the point is to win votes from the public. A candidate doesn't need to be always on the attack against the media to do that. In fact, forever lashing out at the media may hurt a politician with the public.
If you know that the media treats Republicans and Democrats differently, you don't need a politician to point it out to you. Those who don't know, probably don't care, and aren't going to be swayed by another politician going after a reporter.
Well put.
Cruz was excellent in the way he maintained his composure and his identity.
Ted Cruz is in the big leagues and doesn’t even consider stooping down to the level of so-called journalists or their immature little league tactics.
He truly is presidential material, not that that interview proved anything other than the fact that he’s not impressed or affected by their attempt at distracting him.
