"Remember he didn't tell the people of Texas that he was a Canadian citizen...and tried to tell some sap story, which his college roommates come out and said he knew about it because he bragged to them about it... "

Now, everyone in Texas knows he lied to them by withholding the fact he was STILL a Canadian citizen when he stood for the US Senate.

While I'm certain that Ted's deal was for, if not establishment support in 2018, at least for their agreement not to run anyone against him in the primary.

So, he'll have to settle for defeat at the hands of a Jim Webb-type Democrat.

"Ted Cruz lied to us in 2012, why would we believe him now?".

That will be the winning theme.

Certainly they can find one decent Republican in the state of Texas to run against Cruz.
