Screenwriter Craig Mazin was Cruz's freshman year roommate in 1988 Said he was invited to senior parties because people felt sorry he had to be Cruz's roommate Mazin said girls would complain to him after Cruz would walk to their side of the dorm in his bath robe '
'Other than existing, what's the worst thing Ted did to you?' one asked.
'Set his alarm for 7am and then hit the snooze button seven times in a row,' Mazin replied. 'Day after day. Until I crazy-glued it.'
But Mazin didn't have a response when one Twitter user asked what Cruz did on a 'typical Friday night in college'.
'I have no idea,' Mazin replied. 'Because the first thing I did after my last class of the week was GET THE F*** AWAY FROM TED CRUZ.'
One user couldn't believe it had been all bad, asking Mazin if at any point during in their dorm he and Cruz shared 'genuine moment', made 'sincere eye contact' or even agreed on what television show to watch.
'No, no and no,' Mazin responded.
The screenwriter did admit there was one benefit to being Cruz's roommate. Along with the party invites out of pity, he said his hatred of Cruz 'got me laid a few times in '88'.
But along with the jokes and tales from college, Mazin has been vocal in his belief that Cruz would make a dangerous president.
'Ted Cruz will become the thing you need him to be so that he wins an election,' Mazin wrote. 'No principles, no moral center, no values. Just ambition.'
Mazin said that ambition came from Cruz's upbringing: 'Ted has wanted to be President ever since his father told him that's what Jesus really, really wanted to happen,' he wrote on Twitter.

How come we never hear college stories about Obama, Hillary, Bill Clinton, Al Gore, etc.
In Al Gore’s defense, his roommate was Tommy Lee Jones so at least Al was at the school.
Well, I’m at least half as evil as Ted. I usually hit the snooze 3 or 4 times before getting up. Plus, I’m a geek and a lot of lefties hate me.
Boo-hoo.
Exactly.
If you look on FollowTheMoney.org, you'll see that Craig Mazin donated money to "No on 8 Equality California", and a total of $5,000 to a democrat, anti-gun, California Senate candidate; Anthony Portantino.
Why would a progressive democrat, who is passionate enough about leftist causes that he donates over $5,000, have any reason to say anything bad about Ted Cruz?
That piece is genius ... especially the last few minutes with his wife.
I saw this a few hours ago and made the judgment not to post it.
Could even get along with his old college room mate. Couldn’t even get along with his new senate collegues.
I don’t believe it. The story reeks of liberal smugness.
And some of our fellow Freepers even run the same story once a month.
See post #88
I can see anybody’d have a right to post, but I don’t know why anybody would. When Trump and Cruz, neither of them is our enemy. The enemy is Mitt and his ilk. Good Lord, I’m mad at that guy today. What treachery!
Concerned about what? I’m conserned that Cruz has so many people fooled.
Your incite is Luke a bucket of rotten fish.
It’s not just this former room mate.
The same things against Cruz are repeated over and over by many. Google it.
Of course, you wouold say that. You have the Cruz blinders on. This guy is a screenwriter, so I have to assume he has plenty of fame with his name on the silver screen.
Um, I don’t think I”m the one who has rotten fish for insight. (not incite). You are the one wearing Cruz blinders. It’s sad that so many have been so fooled by politicians over the years, and Cruz is no exception.
Leftists always consider strong opinioned conservatives to be arrogant.
I guess you are just a bird of a feather.
And it’s just precious when a FRUMPSTER wHines about someone else’s blind ambition.
I can’t fathom your lack of comprehension on current events. At least you have finally found socialists you can call friend.
FR has degenerated along with the foulness of this disgusting political season. Several members of our family will not vote this time because they have been totally turned off by the tenor of the discourse.
The only people on the planet more full of arrogance and crap than Trump are some of his supporters.
If Trump gets the nomination, and he doesn’t win, your life on FR will be a daily hell. If he wins the general and doesn’t deliver, your life on FR will be a daily hell.
The level of BS and vitriol you people have put out is astounding, and your messiah better not let you down, because I’m not forgetting a thing.
