Last year, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) stood front and center in the battle against President Barack Obama’s health care program, leading an effort that shut down the government because the budget bill did not include a provision to defund the president’s plan.

This year, Cruz was the lead crusader against the spending bill again, this time because it did not include a challenge to Obama’s executive action on immigration, which could shield an estimated 5 million people who entered the country illegally from deportation for about three years....

The Republican Party has been infected with the Gruber virus. Like the architect of Obamacare, they think the American people are too stupid to know what’s good for them.

I hope to see such debates. Praying the GOPe does not find a way to sideline Cruz.

I suggest that Michael Savage read this and understand exactly what Ted Cruz was saying rather than belittling him on national radio.

Cruz+Walker+Pence+Jindal+whoever versus Jeb Bush, Jeb wins

Let me explain again....if Cruz + Walker + Pence + Jindal, all remain in the race to the bitter end, and no other RINO except Jeb Bush remains in the race, Bush wins.

It is exactly similar to 2012. Newt & Ricky fought each other to the bitter end, clearing the path for the lone RINO, Mitt.

Based on 2012 exit polls, there are not enough conservative voters in the country to lift Cruz by dividing votes with other conservatives Pence, Walker & Jindal, to win over Jeb.

One on one, Cruz can beat Bush.
