Mazin has seriously kicked it up a notch since Cruz launched his presidential campaign in March 2015 and has been one of his most vocal critics. There are personal shots from their time together 25 years ago, but he also weighs in on Cruz’s positions as they relate to the presidential campaign.
The hatred clearly runs deep.
“I would rather have anybody else be the president of the United States,” Mazin told the Daily Beast in 2013. “Anyone. I would rather pick somebody from the phone book.”
He’s also called Cruz “a nightmare of a human being.”
“I have plenty of problems with his politics, but truthfully his personality is so awful that 99 percent of why I hate him is just his personality,” Mazin said on the Scriptnotes podcast in October 2013. “If he agreed with me on every issue, I would hate him only one percent less.”

I understand as I watched Cruz for some weeks and almost bought into his act. Then I started to notice many mannerism’s and everything was just to well laid out as if preplanned and rehearsed. My wife started saying she was not sold when he used the Christian college/university. Cruz’s father is full of it. They both met working with the Bush team. Cruz is not the outsider/tea party type he wants to sell to everyone. I see through this. I did not like the Iowa game he played with voters, then the lie he told about Carson, etc. Cruz and wife are out for much more.
I was just giving him due respect for all the great work he’s done exposing communists in the demonRat party. Because no one before or since in such a prominent media position as he had on Fox never approached what he did. Limbaugh and Hannity included.
Interesting analysis here. More here. Unfortunately, the MSM goes along with the Cruz-baiting but doesn't want to take a hard look at Mazin.
Utter garbage.
