Imagine what he'll do from the executive mansion.

Cruz and Jeff Sessions are the lions of the senate.

TC could be Speaker sooner. Optus later.

Cruz should not run for President. It’s unlikely he’ll win and he serves best in the Senate.
I’ll never vote for a Senator for President. Always look towards good Governors like Wis’s Scott Walker.

They are giants among midgets!
The GOP leadership are bought and paid for amnesty pimps.

Spot on. We need governors in 2016. No more Senators.

Power abhors a vacuum. If Senators Cruz, Lee, and Sessions are providing inspiring leadership in the House and Senate, that says a lot about the Speaker’s, House Majority Leader’s, and Senate Minority Leader’s leadership abilities. These guys couldn’t lead a horse to water.

Feh.
Then you'll get to set on the sidelines while Ted Cruz is sworn in.

I’m with you on that but Ted Cruz might just be an exception. But in general we need to nominate strong conservatives with executive experience and governors are the best source of candidates with that resume.
Slightly off-topic: how about Trey Gowdy for Attorney General? That would be a hoot.
To: 2ndDivisionVet
I doubt that my congresscritter John Carter was with Cruz. Carter is a big disappointment and Boehner crony.

Although I believe you mean it and will follow through on your promise, is it wise to make this statement at this early stage?
To: lormand
Looks like the Bonehead crony’s got out numbered. And so was their weak bill.

Not me that posted that statement.
And it lacks a certain amount of common sense as well.

We need governors in 2016The only Governor who has done anything to stop the hordes from overwhelming the US is Rick Perry. And even he, although calling up the National Guard, isn't having them defend Texas.
NOT ONE of the govs stood up to Obama! They should be defending their states.
Especially reprehensible are Brewster and Martinez. They should've called up the NG when Perry did, since they have a border with Mexico.
It's time for governors to defy federal over-reach.

So, if Walker is such a good leader, where has he been on this latest Border issue and Obama's attempts at Amnesty?
