Did Cruz just hint that he is going to run AGAINST McConnell for Majority Leader?
Posted on 11/04/2014 9:14:25 PM PST by Fettigator
Cruz was just on CNN and again to refuse to commit to supporting McConnell as Majority a Leader next week in conference. 
Paul Begala caught it...it was subtle by Cruz.... 
He may not win but Cruz' Tea Party "caucus" just got more powerful tonight....oh please, oh please, oh please run for Leader, Cruz

    If he is by some great stroke of skill able to defeat McConnell, does he still run for POTUS or does he push a Conservative other to take POTUS.
 I for one have always said ‘Any Senator that decides to run for POTUS should be immediately taken away for psychiatric treatment. Senator of the U.S. is the best job in the World!’

    Begala almost got laughed out of the studio by the other talking heads. What exactly did you hear Sen. Cruz say that would have you spouting the same piffle as Begala?

    I thought about this. I honestly hope Ted Cruz does run for Majority Leader.

    Cruz is talking about forcing reconciliation to REPEAL Obamacare knowing the dictator will veto it. He welcomes the veto.
McConnell is afraid of the veto.
Go Cruz.

    More likely he will demand concessions from Mitch.
