OK, sure he’s only one guy, and if the House fails to do it’s job (which is seeming more likely, given the latest rhetoric), there’s not going to be any defunding.

I’ll give him this - ultimately it’s up to We the People, at the ballot box. I was looking for a little more clarity as to how he intends to change the defunding talk into action, although it’s clear that won’t happen without the strong support of the House to send over piecemeal funding resolutions. Maybe I’m overly influenced by past behavior, but I just don’t see them doing that.

So I guess I get it. Cruz’s plan is to smoke out those who support Obamacare and our job is to vote them out. A lot depends on 2014.

I think that was his fall-back plan.

I think his first priority was to light a fire under their collective, lying, cowardly butts by using the anger of their constituents to try and force them to do the right thing, and lacking that, provide enough proof and ammunition to their constituents for the 2014 elections, to kick them out if they refused to do the right thing.

People keep talking about dealing with the mess at the ballot box. This is not a proactive solution and the USA lost last time with this strategy. If you trust the ballot box you have to believe there are no illegals voting or any other non eligibles such as Muslims and other ineligible ‘change’ believers. No, I say if your in a struggle you don’t relax thinking your opponent is filled with sympathetic goodness.
