Gee Ted...and you wonder why no one loves you??
Is McConnell in the Mafia also?
I think this took courage, regardless of who one’s voting for.
the would seem like a positive article for Cruz.
if he had taken it back, you and others would have said “look, no principles!”
silly.
Gotta love the truth. The truth will set you free.

“A prominent aide to George W. Bush’s 2000 campaign could barely contain himself when we asked him to discuss Cruz, who worked in the Bush campaign’s policy shop.
This person described Cruz as hyper-arrogant and widely despised, and he emphasized—over and over—that the pervasive dislike of Cruz within the Bush ranks had nothing to do with ideology.
(Cruz, he noted, never objected to Bush’s call for compassionate conservatism, immigration reform, and national education standards, and no one on the campaign regarded him as an ideologue.)
The problem was simple: Cruz’s personality.
“Ted thought he was an expert on everything,” says this campaign veteran, who asked not to be named. “He was a smart and talented guy, but completely taken with himself and his own ideas. He would offer up opinions on everything, even matters outside his portfolio. He was a policy guy, but he would push his ideas on campaign strategy. He would send memos on everything to everyone. He would come to meetings where he wasn’t invited—and wasn’t wanted.”
In fact, this Bush alum recalls, “the quickest way for a meeting to end would be for Ted to come in. People would want out of that meeting. People wouldn’t go to a meeting if they knew he would be there. It was his inability to be part of the team. That’s exactly what he was: a big a$$hole.”
“I don’t know anyone who had a decent relationship with Cruz.” And when Bush became president, his top campaign aides agreed Cruz should not be offered a job in the White House.
“No one wanted to work with him,” this source remembers. “George W. Bush couldn’t stand the guy.”
This person adds, “It’s a real quandary for Bush campaign people: Trump versus Cruz, who to vote for? And it would be a big quandary even if it’s Cruz versus Hillary Clinton. That’s how much they cannot stand him.”
“Ted, Ted, you say this after all the money my PAC is giving you?” - Mitch McConnell
ted’s a mess and a bit of a maniac.
Well, it obviously IS true Mitch McConnell is a liar. I’l give him that one.
Now, about that Chicago thingy.....
Cartel Cruz, the Queen of BS.
He feeds his flock of geese, 24/7. “Look over there” is his moral philosophy and entire campaign. The geese love it.
Being from Kentucky, it’s just nice to see anybody call Mitch McConnell a liar in public. He’s such a weaselly little turd I can’t stand to see his face when his mouth is moving. Or any other time for that matter.
And yet, you yahoos call him establishment. Confuse yourself much?
Notice Tricky Teddy doesn’t call McConnell a liar again when given the opportunity and also quit with the incendiary “Washington Cartel” bomb throwing.
I agree with you.
for having courage in this instance?
what would have said if he apologized?
this thread makes no sense.
Could the secret GOP establishment guy that Trump talk about that want to endorse Trump is Mitch?
McConnell also lied to voters so he would get reelected, and went back to his liberal ways. SHAME on McConnell.
Throwing conservatives a crumb once in awhile isn’t good enough, Sen. McConnell.
Anybody who likes “moderate” Republican - aka liberal - McConnell will also like Donald Trump.
Wait until the bus runs him over at the convention (if required).
