The top two Republicans in the Senate made clear Monday they will not join Cruzs call for a filibuster of a government funding bill that cleared the House last week. Their decisions signaled that the fiery freshmans plan isnt good politics even for Republicans facing conservative primary threats and reinforced a widely held view that it wont work in practice.

Thanks for the info. I’ll look into it
I don’t know. It’s a possibility here in Texas. John boy Corncob must thinbk he has a strong hold on the moderate and liberal Rep sections to get re-elected. Since he turned on Cruz, he may have a deal worked out with the f’n Dems.
Even though he had all his “crimes” tossed out, I think the meida has rendered him unelectable. But I sure as hell would vote for the Hammer, he has the guts to do what needs to be done.
Cornyn has to go! We need another Ted Cruz in that seat!
I will definitely be voting for Cornyn's primary challenger. If Cornyn gets the nomination, I will not be voting for him in the general.
Fact is... Cruz exposed many GOP as ObamaCare supporters....Cruz wins...
That’s interesting, I hadn’t heard that.
I really think the only thing that MIGHT help is a march on the capital. In fact, a few million cars in a caravan heading toward Washington just might scare the hell out of them. I’m sure the military would stop the people from entering the city but the rinos would know they can’t be shielded from the voters forever and every car represents thousands of votes..
The democrats are marshalling all their formidable forces to Palinize Cruz. Their mastery of the politics of personal destruction is legendary and lethal. Fasten your seatbelts, it’s going to be a bumpy...
Sen Cruz on Senate floor LIVE, Now!!

Taking swings at Rats and Rinos.
Yes...he’s amazing. And, he just pulled in the UNIONS/TEAMSTERS for originally supporting and now wanting an exemption from SOCIALIZED 0CARE!!
God bless Ted. He is doing an awesome job. Watching on CSPAN. Mitch and Cornyn could only hope to be as big a person as he is.
RNC screws us, why care about them?
They have been beyond weak and spineless for far too long.
Lets start that conversation by acknowledging we arent going to deport 12 million illegal immigrants... bringing these workers out of the shadows and into being taxpaying members of society. Imagine 12 million people who are already here coming out of the shadows to become new taxpayers.12 million more people assimilating into society. 12 million more people being productive contributors. [but hes not in favor of amnesty, snicker, definition of is is]
...by softening its edge on some volatile social issues and altering its image as the party always seemingly "eager to go to war... We do need to expand the party and grow the party and that does mean that we don't always all agree on every issue" ... the party needs to become more welcoming to individuals who disagree with basic Republican doctrine on emotional social issues such as gay marriage... "We're going to have to be a little hands off on some of these issues ... and get people into the party," Paul said.
THIS TOWN.........needs an enema!
God love and bless Cruz, Lee, et al for fighting the good fight, and bringing to light the abomination that McConnell and Cornyn are.
