It would be interesting to see what would happen, that’s for sure. A little too much at stake for me to feel comfortable playing chicken though... Especially when Roberts is probably the deciding vote.
My guess is that Hillary would try to get Cruz’s name off the ballot when it’s too late for the R’s to replace him. Or have him disqualified before he receives any electoral votes (Dec 15th)
It’s occurred to me that the left has been wanting revenge for Bush v Gore for a long time. Hillary would be a hero of heroes if she did these very things. More incentive.
I just read an article from 2 days ago, on yahoo ( http://news.yahoo.com/ted-cruz-natural-born-citizen-eligible-serve-president-100207138—politics.html ), it talks about how reasonable and critical it is to sort out the definition of NBC, but says that “purported concerns about President Obama’s constitutional qualifications led “birthers” to file lawsuits challenging his natural-born credentials on the basis of a variety of far-fetched theories during the last several years.” The news media is going to legitimize the questions about Cruz’s eligibility in a way they never did with Obama. Cruz isn’t going to threaten the media into silence like Soros did for Obama, but instead the media will dutifully hound Cruz on Soros’ behalf. They’re setting the stage already.
The left doesn’t want to bring Obama into this ad bringing an eligibility suit to Cruz would do that. The USSC tripped all over itself to say no one had standing, practically eliminating everyone from it.
