Ted Cruz on Tuesday nabbed an unlikely endorsement: the backing of a Bush.
Neil Bush, a brother of George W. Bush and Jeb Bush, was listed (along with his wife) as one of 13 new additions to Cruz's national finance team. The campaign said the new additions are all former supporters of other candidates, including Bush, Rand Paul, Rick Perry and Marco Rubio.
This follows the release last week of a list of several other previous Jeb Bush backers now supporting Cruz, whose hardline conservative approach is generally at odds with the one Jeb Bush took.
Last summer, former President George W. Bush told supporters at a private fundraiser for his brother's campaign that Cruz was the GOP contender who most got under his skin. "I just don't like the guy," George W. Bush said at a Denver fundraiser.

Good golly, yes indeed Cruz is another politician.
Can I be #2?
check FReepmail.
Just Gawdawful. Cruz is an embarrassment.
You and SJB can share the honors.
We both care about the outcome, as do you!
That’s what concerns me.
Amen. lots of closet libs are smoked out aren’t there?
“Cruz is an embarrassment”
I have met him and his family, and I guarantee that he is legit and what we need in this country.
If you have real information otherwise, let me hear it. I have seen him first hand.
Just remember that there are many who just ain't happy about anything unless they can b*tch about it.
“Thats what concerns me.”\
shouldn’t.
Go check out how he managed to win the Senatorial office he now represents in Texas.
He beat a well-funded GOPe sitting Lt. Governor who outspent him 10 to 1.
He is legit and is definitely not part of the establishment you can see by looking at his record of the past 4 years in his Senate seat.
Why do you think the leaders in Congress hate him? He is against them as he is pro-America.
“there are many who just ain’t happy about anything unless they can b*tch about it. “
You just established the Trump voter’s position on everything.
You are seriously suggesting Trump is not “power-hungry?” LOL. That’s his defining lifelong characteristic.
Trump said he was pure establishment until 7 months ago. History backs it up, as he was for amnesty for illegals in 2012.
neil Bush signing on to his campaign.
Tells me asll I need to know.
Okay being a nice guy, but if he is establishment, I am not interested.
You are seriously suggesting Cruz is not power-hungry? LOL. Thats his defining lifelong characteristic.
He voted for cloture on TPA, voted for the Corker bill and now has Bush people joining his campaign.
None of that is pro-America.
