What exactly have Ted Cruz's accomplishments in the U.S. Senate been, to date?

I'm not even suggesting the guy wouldn't be a great president. I'm talking about how his candidacy is going to be viewed by the people who matter most: voters and financial supporters.

When you have a candidate whose only major accomplishment to date was his heroic stance against ObamaCare in the U.S. Senate back in the fall of 2013 ... for which he was roundly criticized and beaten down by his own fellow party members .. you can understand why a lot of us are skeptical about his prospects in a national campaign.

What did Ted Cruz accomplish? He succeeded in scaring the crap out of the Rats and their RINO weenie lackeys. He shut down our enemy, Leviathan. Ted Cruz did that. Nobody else did. In fact, mostly the rest just tried to stab him in the back. Ted’s my main man. If he’ll lead, I will most certainly follow.

His accomplishments are moving the debate and challenging his own party leadership. This is the best thing he could possibly do, a GOP without Cruz is not even worth a vote. He was a junior senator from the minority party and you want to demand he pass legislation on his own? That is being unrealistic in the extreme.

Well, here’s a fast refresher course, for you...as I see you left out a few things from his resume....
