Remember. Ron Paul was banned from the convention while Joe Lieberman was a featured speaker.

Like it or no, believe it or no, Obama is pretty well shut down until those CR’s are passed. Obama’s track record is such that it’s pretty predictable he will attempt to supersede the Constitution and bypass the House. The question is can Reid and Pelosi hold the rank & file down as the outrage simmers at a new high.

The media of course will continue to play the same song and claim he’s fallen ‘just shy’ of violating the constitution or ‘didn’t technically’ when in fact that Rubicon was crossed already.

I reckon it depends on what "Team" the gutlessly anonymous GOPer is talking about.
If it's Team Big Government (with its GOP scrubs) who play by Marxist rules he may have a point.
However, if he is talking about Team America who plays by the Constitution he is sadly mistaken.
God Save the Republic.

Ted Cruz was not elected by the People of the State of Texas, to become any other legislator’s bunk buddy!

“I choose Cruz!”

Ted Cruz was the only one who knew to get in front of the Obamacare disaster. Otherwise, their strategy of figuring out how to get votes in the future from the disaster would've meant shared blame....and Obamacare.

The only reasonable conclusion is that these RINOs have something to gain from the implementation of Obamacare.

I think Lee went on record saying he and Cruz were ASKING about any other alternatives....and the leadership was silent.

So if not being a team player means not surrendering, and having SOME SORT of plan, then I applaud him.

Lazamataz complaint: That's because you are joined with the opposing team, GOP.

They all attacked him from the get go because of their usual fear of what the MSM will say about them - which they are going to do anyway. They might as well stand up and fight.

The one’s that aren’t team players were the ones that ran to the dems. They don’t support the team, they support themselves. Imagine the lefty’s doing that? No chance.

When Goldwater ran in 1964, he got much of the same treatment from both parties. He lost the election but started a conservative movement that elected Reagan, who also was called an extremist until he proved to be such a great president.

That lack of strategy certainly rankled one influential Republican member of Congress, who bemoaned President Obama’s disinterest in rescuing the GOP from itself to a bunch of reporters last Thursday, speaking on the condition that he not be quoted by name:


So are we sure this was McCain, who is the disgruntled “influencial” member of the Senate they are talking about???

I guess McCain is more upset that Cruz is getting more attention than this poor excuse for a senator...

I guess McCain would be better of just quitting and allowing Arizona to elect someone a little more amiable to the original intent of our Constitution and reasonable conservative principles...

Something he seriously lacks...

Hey Arizona!!! You know I love your state and its people, but y;all could do so much better, if this is the case...
