GOP sources: Rick Perry encouraged Michael McCaul to challenge Ted Cruz
WFAA 8 ABC ^ | 31 OCTOBER 2016 | TEXAS TRIBUNE

Posted on 10/31/2016 5:33:54 PM PDT by Extremely Extreme Extremist

(TEXAS TRIBUNE) Late this summer, former Texas Gov. Rick Perry strongly encouraged U.S. Rep. Michael McCaul to challenge U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz's re-election bid in 2018, according to GOP sources.

The encouragement, which was relayed to The Texas Tribune by two Republican sources familiar with the correspondence, came around the same time that McCaul, an Austin Republican, emerged as a top potential challenger to Cruz's re-election efforts, amid an outcry among many grassroots conservatives over Cruz's decision not to endorse presidential nominee Donald Trump at the Republican National Convention.

Cruz is giving himself the aces.. to pull his own fat out of the fire, in Texas.

Already have Cornyn. Many years ago he was the Ted Cruz from Texas. Look what happened to him. Difference is it only took Cruz one term to change.

If there was any solid recognition of our need to defeat Hillary and all she stands for, Cruz would be our candidate right now.


Sorry, It’s already been proven Cruz can’t beat a “NY Liberal”. LOL.

You must be one of his mistresses. I did not say anything about hating him. Your definition of an honest Godly man is different from mine.

Although his mouth speaks otherwise while campaigning it’s all a front. Perry is an open borders guy. He is also in bed with big pharm and tried to make it mandatory for all kids to get Gardisil shots. Worst of all he turned Texas into a magnet for Islam and signed in creeping sharia laws. Texas has some of the largest mosques in the country.

After all this time, and just a week from an election where Hillary could become President, you are still shilling for Cruz? Incredible.

Likely because Cruz continues to be savaged here at FR, and I don't understand why it's tolerated. IIRC, JimRob has posted several threads to stop the Cruz bashing, yet it persists.

But hey, it's a free country, so knock yourself out. Got news for you, though: McFaul may do well in Austin and the Hill Country, but Cruz owns North & South Texas. McFaul's "F" rating from Conservative Review should be a warning to all of you "learned" Cruz haters.

7.5 billion MSM dollars is what it took for a world known Billionaire to beat the only Godly, honest candidate in the race.

And he was barely able to do it!

How long will you be “LOL?”

Spiritually diseased is the best description of your kind.

Cruz has dedicated his life to upholding our sovereignty, and our Yehova-given and constitutionally guaranteed freedoms.

Can you name anyone else who has?

You’re a complete joke. The Babylonian globalists declare that Cruz has to be destroyed, and you enlisted.

Did they give you a real cool badge to wear, or just your idiotic smirk?

You need to go back to taking care of Ted Cruz and stop speculating about me. Assuming that Ted still wants you. Either do that or find yourself another hobby rather than posting to me. Your attention to me is neither wanted or appreciated. Go torment someone else. I am not interested in either you or your boyfriend, Ted.

Hillary could become president because you and the rest of the globalist sheep dedicated your souls to satan to beat the man that best could have demolished her in the debates.

Lets hope you fail miserably at that goal, and Trump manages to pull out a victory against all of you.

Your sorry a$$ posted to me, remember???

Keep your filthy rectal port out of your mouth and you’ll do well.

Trump will have a mountain to climb with idiots like you blowing your runny nose all over his chances.

The butt hurt remains strong apparently, and now you call Trump supporters the globalists? Seriously? Yes, because Trump is married to Goldman Sachs. Oh wait...

The Great Debater didn't win any debates when he had the chance, there is no way his whiny beta male presence would have convinced the people to vote for him. He would have lost far worse than McCain and Romney. He would not have broadened the party at all. Trump is poised for a Reaganesque landslide. Enjoy your McMuffin.

You’re not a Trump supporter, you’re a stupid shill.

You think that the only man to challenge the global agenda is a globalist?

Take your 65 IQ somewhere else.

You are parroting word for word a false HILLARY CLINTON talking point. LMAO. How principled and conservative for you.
