It was a spectacular job delivering the case against Obama, Holder, and Lynch. Hearing the persuasive evidence against Lynch presented by Cruz in his speech, the 20 Republican Senators who voted for cloture (John Cornyn of TX was one) and the 10 who voted to confirm Lynch deserve the rebuke of voters. The fact Cruz missed the final confirmation vote means nothing to me as his constituent; he fought hard throughout the Senate Judiciary hearing and at the appropriate time on the floor of the Senate.
