“Cruz fought 9 Conservative causes before the Supreme Ct. and won 5.”

“He took his law firm to one of the top appellate firms in the country

That’s not the senate...”

“In the Senate he fought Obamacare”

So? Lots of people did. They all failed.

“penned many amendments and fought amnesty and per Sessions”

The so-called poison pill amendments that he said were really there to kill the thing...but no one can really tell until long after the fact when he just tells us that’s what they were for?

“He had one bill pass and signed and that was that no terror suspect or spy could be a U.N. rep.”

Oh......um, ok?

“He’s only been there a little over two years...”

So then he decides to just screw off the rest of that term and decide to run for president? Didn’t we knock Obama and Hillary for this?

I knew what they were for at the time. I was paying attention. Why didn't you? There were plenty of discussions here on FR.

No. We knocked Obama and Hillary for using the Senate as nothing but a stepping stone. Obama only voted "present" and Hillary only passed fluff "naming stuff" legislation. Both were only there to fill a square.

Ted has actually been working hard in the Senate on all of the things he promised to do. He has been elevated to a national stature and set up for the presidency through his accomplishments and hard Constitutional stances. Even now, he's still doing his job as a Senator (see my previous post). If he came into the Senate with Presidential aspirations, it doesn't show. However, he's man enough to step up when he's the only one willing to restore the Constitution to its position of prominence.
