Her premise is so vapid
The constitution is his sidearm. He’s outnumbered but whom he’s fighting for, and the institution he’s fighting for is the only viable choice if the country doesn’t end up destroyed
It’s like if the entire institution of HS football was taken over by steroid users but no one would admit it. Some less equal were prosecuted to make it look good but eventually it was going to get cleaned up for the sake of the game and the kids’ education.
One team disallows it, zero tol, and plays the kids. They have a great and knowledgeable coach and tons of support from a not so usual crowd They lose every time
Do they quit?
This vapid feminist would say so
Maybe she needs to review the serpico case
He’s so smart-—and outnumbered 50 or 80 to one...might that be a factor?
“Junior Senator is smart, so why can’t he resist picking so many losing fights...”
Let’ help Erica out here.
“Junior Senator is smart, so he can’t resist picking short term losing fights...
Amazing how the direction of journalism is always to move away from truth, rather than towards it.
I would ask the writer to notice that Ted’s political positions are more aligned with telling the truth than with trying to get good or bad reactions from other congressmen.
“If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves.”
—Winston Churchill
Erica, the fitness of your mind is in question here, so take notice.
To move away from truth is to pick the losing side of the most important battle of all time.
All movements which are small and take on the big giants look like losing causes at the beginning.
See William Wilberforce.
Only the Democrat Texas Monthly would employ such a poor writer. Why in the world does Sen. Cruz subject himself to such boring people?
Found that lie in the first sentence.
Picking a Winning Fight - For Dummies
1. Find some project that Harry Reid supports.
2. Fight for it.
3. Win.
Interesting point. Makes sense
Gee, could it have anything to do with the fact that the Clymers surrounding him don’t have the stones to make even the fights they COULD win!!
Ted, you keep on keepin’ on!! You’re pissing off ALL the right people.
Scoundrels choose the winning side; principled men choose the right side, regardless of the outcome.
If she’s talking, Cruz is not losing.

His fights are not in vain. I am sure there are some becoming emboldened and encouraged by his example, but the ones that are not are being exposed for the failures they are, even right here at good old Freerepublic, but most importantly in the supposed friendly press, and in the supposedly on our side GOP.
Ted is accomplishing much, one way or the other.
He is feeding the status quo country club business as usual crowd their lunch and driving them out of the shadows and into the light where we can see them for what they are.
The enemy.
Because Erica, you are supposed to fight for right not what will win
If Thomas Sowell hadn’t come in with the same point yesterday I’d forget this
But ... What is wrong with these people
“I tried to make small talk—which was, as always, a thankless exercise..”
An admission to be expected from a 50 IQ liberal ape.
