“He’s getting Palin-ized. “

Yeah, probably so. But, no disrespect meant to Palin, he’s a lot smarter than Palin and more comfortable in his own skin which is what scares hell out of the left.

->he’s a lot smarter than Palin and more comfortable

What a dumb comment. Palin endorsed him and Ted wanted her there to help him. Seems he's pretty keen in knowing how smart she is. There's no competition. They work on the same team.

Indeed. They both have the strength of character, and understanding of fundamental principles, but Cruz has the superlative intellectual horsepower Palin evidently lacks.

And his voice is perfectly agreeable, unlike Palin’s inexplicably untrained tones.

What is it with so many here? Do you really buy the Tina Fey/Bill Maher/David Letterman/Hollywood/MSM/Steve Schmidt/Nicole Wallace bullsh*t that Gov. Palin is an idiot who thinks she can see Russia from her house? That she thought Africa was a country and all the rest of it? Do you REALLY think someone like that could rise to the governorship of a large state? She has a university degree, do you think someone took her tests for her and she was pushed forward due to affirmative action, like our exalted leader was? She WAS NOT a part of a large, powerful political machine, unlike DEAR LEADER and just the opposite, fought the entrenched powers-that-be in Alaska. How many “morons” send politicians to jail? How many “idiots” get picked to be vice president of the United States? Or do you really believe that a major political party did little to no research on a presidential running-mate? C’mon!
