Excellent article and comments.

Toxic Ted Cruz left the stage amid a thunderous chorus of boos, having diminished himself spectacularly on the grandest political stage of them all. The entire audience, and millions of people around the world saw first hand the toxic and abrasive nature that is Ted Cruz unmasked.

I predict his career is over. He’ll hang a shingle and do personal injury and divorce (probably his own) to buy his food.

It’s like after a football playoff game and the score was 59-14. The coach of the losing team being interviewed-
and acting like there was a bad call and he was cheated out of the game. The fact was Cruz lost about 3 to 1.. I’m not getting why he is relevant at all.. In other words the winning team just scored the most points in history of the playoffs against you..sit down and STFU and get some gel for that hiney...

Reporter- “Coach, what do think about your team’s execution?”

Coach- “Sounds like a good idea”

“Cruz is an a-hole with no friends left.”

Come now.. He still has Glenn Beck. Right ? Beck still picks up the phone from the anointed politician of God ?

Only Cruz sycophants are left believing Ted Cruz has any political viability left at all.

Now there's a perfect summary of the reality of the situation.

Cruz remind me of a lot of Silicon Valley people - @ssholes, yeah, but even more than that. It’s referred to as a “social autism” which they mostly get away with because they’re engineers. But for a politician, its amazing Cruz has gotten even this far. People like this really don’t know, nor really care, how they come across to others. They are convinced that they are superior, and that’s the end of the subject for them. Believe it or not, Steve Jobs was like Cruz. But of course unlike Cruz, Jobs won like Trump.

His career is over. Why am I thinking that somehow, Glen Beck, is involved in what Cruz did last night?

Ted Cruz the AV Geek was invited to the big Football party with the team and the cheerleaders and instead of acting cool and making nice he got drunk, pooped in his pants, pissed on the rug, threw up on the head cheerleader and groped the family dog.

Ted Cruz.: The new Tim Misney. Doing wills and chasing ambulances for a career.

Ironically, an 1876 A.M.E. Bishop and Ohio State Legislator named Rev. Benjamin W. Arnett provided a definition of an "Oath," as understood by America's Founding Fathers, which Cruz might want to read and think about. That definition was included in his Centennial Sermon celebrating the 100th Anniversary of the Declaration of Independence and the history of America to that date.

He had lived through slavery and the Civil War, and his Sermon's title was "Righteousness Exalteth a Nation, but Sin is a Reproach to Any Nation." He retraced the history of nations and documented the Christian foundations of America's liberty. Of oaths, he declared:

"Oaths and affirmations are appeals to God, by him who makes them, that what he has said, or what he shall say, is the truth. It is the most solemn form under which one can assert or pronounce anything, and its violation is a crime of the darkest hue; one which God has declared he will punish; one that is made infamous and punishable by fine and imprisonment, by the laws of the land. Thus Christian obligation is required of every officer of the general Government, who fills any position of trust, honor or emolument. Many reports are required in the form and shape of affidavits." - Bishop and Ohio State Legislator, Benjamin W. Arnett, 1876 - Entire Address may be read at the Library of Congress)

I told friends a while ago that I see a divorce between Heidi and Toxic Ted. Just like Al and Tipper. Both Al and Ted have a lot of the same personality disorder. We shall see.
