The media’s approach to dealing with Cruz is this: Ignore him. They tried to paint him as a nut, but he interviews too well and is too smart to get caught in “got me” questions. So they’ve decided to basically not report on him at all.

He's breaking through, in a BIG way, on that front as well.

It's not working, like Reagan, he is finding ways to simply go around the media.

There was a span of about 4 weeks there where there was an absolute dearth of articles to post. Now I have so many articles, I can't post them all.

[sigh]"I know, sir! We've FAXed all the major media outlets. McCain's advice to paint him as a 'Whacko Bird' didn't work, and...no, sir, we won't listen to McCain anymore...yes, he still twirls those steel balls in his hand at meetings."

"Ignore him? We tried! Ever since he came out with that damned book, he shows up at these signings and the line stretches out the door!"

"Yes, sir, we'll keep at it. Some of the other Republican Leadership have more ideas, and as always, the Chamber of Commerce is happy to lend a hand."

[Hangs up and sighs deeply] "Hungarian prick!"
