New York Republican Rep. Peter King, who is considering his own bid for the White House, mocked Texas GOP Sen. Ted Cruz's announcement that he was running in 2016 and said the Texas Republican isn't qualified to serve as president.
"Shutting down the federal government and reading Dr. Seuss on the Senate floor are the marks of a carnival barker not the leader of the free world," King said in a written statement on Monday.
King's statement references a Cruz speech on the Senate floor that last more than 20 hours, railing against Obamacare in 2013.
The New York Republican has been a vocal critic of Cruz' since the government shutdown that fall, blaming him for the standoff and calling him a "fraud."(continued)

Peter King is a Lieberman democrat. Tell me where the difference is. Of course a liberal doesn’t like Ted. That’s not news.

Is King planning on running as a Republican or a Democrat, or does it matter?

They're coming out of the wood work. Only a matter of time before "Porky Rove" is out and about on Faux News dissing Cruz.
Long line of Rino trash yet to come.
