add cruz to walker and jindal and i’m right with him.

Ted Cruz's accomplishments in the Senate?

Oh, yes, giving Obama's Iran deal his blessing, then turning against it. Giving Obama TPA (which Cruz will turn against when Obama presents a free trade agreement)

Yes, Cruz has a list of accomplishments...few of which are conservative or constitutional.

well, i agree that the obama trade and iran stuff was wrong. i have no idea why he supported them. but no candidate is perfect, because no human being is perfect. those weren’t deal breakers for me.

i like ted less for what he’s accomplished in the senate then what he’s done outside of it.

one tremendous asset for him is that he is apparently an experienced pastor. if you’ve spent anytime around great pastors, true men of God, you’ll know what i mean.

basically it makes him mega-gifted with people, knowing them in the spirit, and then being able to translate that knowledge into personalized, articulate teaching and real help—far better than any secular psychology based professional could ever do. after all God is the Great Physician. the pastor is convincing people to let God in to do all the work. and God fearing pastors, the real deal, can’t help being true conservatives. conservatism derives from the true Faith, the living God.

the other thing about the ted cruzes, dave brats, and the like is that the uniparty hates and fears them with a passion, because they beat them on their own turf against a heavily stacked deck. there’s truth in the old “enemy of my enemy” saying. gope fear and hate can also be used to good advantage by a smart campaigner, and i’d be willing to bet cruz is a very good campaigner based on what he’s accomplished against the gope.
