RomneyCARE's sister wife: "My Master said "Let the Palinization of Cruz begin."

Conservatives have lambasted New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, whose sometimes over-the-top behavior has been captured on video, as a “bully.” They castigate the president for being aloof and arrogant. But when it comes to two conservative favorites, Sens. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) and Ted Cruz (R-Tex.), the right-wing suddenly tolerates all manner of bad and alarming conduct.
Paul reminded us yesterday what a low threshold for criticism and mildly probing questions he has. He has demonstrated that behavior over and over and also wound up in hot water for hiring and briefly defending the Southern Avenger, for plagiarizing speeches and for playing it too cute by half with his “board certification.” Isn’t this a problem for someone who wants to lead a country, end dysfunction inside the Beltway and presumably work with Congress to obtain desired ends? If you don’t work well with others and can’t abide by nettlesome rules (like citing others whose words you use), it becomes difficult to govern, which Paul has never had to do. (He has run a medical practice and a Senate office, which doesn’t exactly prepare him as chief executive.)
Cruz, of course, has picked fights consistently with colleagues, misled them on an ill-advised shutdown and become famous by denouncing other Republicans as sellouts. His burning ambition and lack of cooperative legislating give the impression that everything he does is calculated to advance his career and enhance his ego rather than to bolster the party or the movement.

What we don’t need is someone ‘cooperating’ with the Left.
J. Rubin has plenty of rent free space in her head.
Well that was fair and balanced...
So tired of people trying to link a true conservative like Ted Cruz with a faker like Rand Paul.
You don’t back a Mitch McConnell over a Tea-Party conservative like Matt Bevin and get to call yourself a conservative.

CRUZ or LOSE!Republican Presidential Candidates blah blah blah.
There could be no higher endorsement.
Jennifer Rubin telling the GOP establishment to follow the McCain method, i.e., go-along/get-along with democRATs.
US Media suddenly HUGELY motivated to scrutinize, vet, question, criticize, and hold to account, my, my, my.
Some new type of coffee, I’m suuuure.
Worse- one can’t claim to be “anti-Washington establishment.”
Miss Rubin has her panties in a wad... too bad...so sad.
This is so laughable. Notice all of the conservatives are rude and arrogant bylines the last few days. This from the people who wrote the book on being egotistical and arrogant. Jenny wrote this waste of internet space because she and the rest of the MSM are noticing a little bit of push back by the GOP. Nice start but we need a little bit more of this. Lefty bullies don’t like it when you hit back against them.
One huge asset of Cruz is his ability to wade into the viper’s nest and keep his cool. Paul needs to learn that skill if he wants to stay in the race.

J. Ruben needs to take a look at Obingo before he can have a shred of cred on this.

Everyone, including the GOP, forgets that the GOP took control of the Senate and increased their control of the House after the "ill-advised shutdown".
Remember three weeks ago, right after it turned out Hillary had simply deleted her whole server:
She was giving a speech, honoring Integrity in Journalism:
Hillary joked, “My relationship with the media lately is, how should I say it, complicated...”
AND THEY ALL FELL OUT OF THEIR SEATS, LAUGHING.
they thought it was FUNNY.
“J. Rubin has plenty of rent free space in her head.”
That’s only because her space has no market value.
To the left, they are from hell. That’s a good thing.
