The insprational thing about Cruz and what sets him apart from most of his colleagues is that he has the mindset of a winner. He clearly understands that politics is a contact sport and to win you have to be smarter and stronger than your opponent. You have to be on offense to score points.

Unfortunately Republicans’ natural posture is to be on defense, if they’re even on the field at all. Most of the time they are content being spectators in the grandstands.

Cruz is exactly the type of unapologetic warrior we need to stand up to the Democrats and the viscious jackals in the media.

You are absolutely correct. Cruz came out swinging from day one and hasn’t stopped (thank you Sarah).

THIS is the type of NEW leadership our party needs.

OUT with the ole GOPe’s....... in with the new young WARRIOR bloods!

I need to go and watch Sarah at CPAC video again. LOVE when Cruz came out and gave her the credit for his win.

Sarah was correct when she said you don’t need a title to affect change.

Cruz is a shining example of that!

It is WAY BEYOND TIME that the pushback against the liberal agenda take on the form of a Rachel Corrie smashing bulldozer. The Constitution was built to prevent the exact kind of government we currently have.

The Amendments are explicitly worded, and easily understood. that we have allowed ONE INCH of any type of control on free speech, gun control, or impediments to our freedoms was a terrible oversight on the American People’s watch. Now that we’re seeing the intended outcome of allowing even ONE INCH, and the lib agenda taking a hundred miles, we need two hundred more Cruz types to be elected and NOT GIVE an inch in pushing back. Put them against the wall and do not let them away from it until they’re pummeled into submission.

SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED means what it says. Enforce it.

An author I've read has said that is the problem with conservatism - it's like being in a castle while the left is outside chipping away at the walls. Sooner or later they will get in. Part of the problem is that Republicans allow themselves to be shamed into being passive.

Obvious to all but the GOP Elite.
