I’m sorta torn on these tactics. Like everyone here, I applaud Cruz for standing up for what’s right and raising a little hell. On the other hand, he needs to build a strong enough base to get things passed and that means not pissing offf those who might otherwise support him when it is avoidable. In short, he’s got to be real good at picking his fights or he’ll end up with too few soldiers on his side.

The majority of Americans believe the country is headed in the wrong direction, but if anyone tries to raise the alarm and change course, they are told to get back in line and maintain the status quo.

Ted Cruz has astutely identified the enemy and his tactics are necessary to ensure victory. He never compromises his principles and Senator Cruz stands his ground without wavering or watering down his message of Bible-based Conservatism. In short, he’s not lukewarm.

Love the guy but does he have any soldiers on his side? Every move he does, the “right” and left Palinize him further. Outside of FR, where could he get a ton of votes? When the media finishes with him, people of all stripes would be embarrassed to vote for him. I hope he has a way around that.
