CLOUT???
This idiot would be lucky if he keeps his Senate seat, considering how willing he was to scuttle this election in the Democrat’s and GOPe’s favor!
I see a bright future of personal injury lawyer commercials in the greater Houston area in the near future.
Gets old. Cruz has destroyed his career in the short term.
Maybe after a lot of mea culpas and humility, he could possibly resurrect himself. God knows Newt did. Nixon did. But in the short term, he saw his poll numbers go from the mid-30s and leads in many states like IN to low 20s and massive blowouts. It now looks like Trump will win Nebraska, which Cruz had a complete lock on.
Cruz screwed himself by running a very nasty campaign, rather than one of optimism, vision, and hope. Had he done that, indeed he would be one to watch.
Cruz would be a great replacement for Scalia.
He would get overwhelming support getting confirmed by the senate. His peers would love to get rid of him.
I love how the press likes to tell us who our leaders are/will be, even in the face of Trump’s victory.
Tells you how deep the manipulation and corruption runs.
This will only get worse as those “in power” become desperate to hold on to it.
Only the GOP puts looser’s on a pedestal.
I supported him out of the gate, but imo he played too dirty for me
That's not to say I find the schoolyard drubbings by Trump enchanting, by any means & am glad he has redirected it to Hillary
You’re an optimistic guy :) That’s a good trait.
all his gaffes will be forgotten as time goes by and he will be remembered as a good challenger but that’s not going to happen today or tomorrow.
Still good SC pick.
It’s true.
He’s young and smart and very respected outside of the Trumpers who have somehow taken over a conservative forum.
He has a very solid organization of serious-minded people.
So the crowd picked Barabbas this time.
Picking the loudest idiot is what crowds do.
Eventually something else shiny and sparkly will attract their attention and they will wander off again.
The only problem I got with Cruz is his and his Dad’s insistence that he is “God”’s gift to US! That’s kind of creepy.
I’m just thankful I don’t have to listen to his whiny slimy voice every day..Lyin’ Ted.
Um no....not even in dreamland
I don't trust McConnell to support a Trump agenda, so we need a true conservative coalition to challenge McConnell at every turn.
Cruz can lead and grow that coalition, and maybe some day even challenge McConnell for Majority Leader.

LOLOL.
Bless your heart.
His very public mental breakdown was embarrassing to watch and will be hard for him to overcome.. Ever.
Cruz would have to remove all doubt in Texan voter’s minds that he’s one big blackmail-able hot mess if he ever expects to get reelected as State Senator. Not to mention the dirty tactics he used for months in his campaign; his extremist Dominionist belief system; and his irritating preacher-approach on the stump.
But worst of all was his lack of good judgment. He could have had it all if he had reconciled himself to be Trump’s VP, as Trump was insinuating. But either he didn’t have enough good sense to see it, or he had handlers who refused to let him do it. If you have any other explanations for all of the above that make sense, then sure, I may consider voting for him again his next time around. Maybe.
Give up.
Cruz was a vice chair of the NRSC before he got into the pres race. Maybe he’ll do that again...he’ll fit RIGHT in. They did plenty of fundraising for him USING TRUMP SUPPORTERS! And still are!
When you going to learn? THE RNC IS A CRIMINAL ENTERPRISE!
THAT is what Trump is trying to tell you!
ROTTEN, miserable NRSC still using Trump to raise $$ for their own! May 5, 2016

Cruz displayed breathtaking levels of incompetence and poor judgement in recent months. It will take a lot of years and a lot of work to fix it. But first he has to realize the depth of his blunders. I have serious doubts Ted Cruz can even see his own mistakes, let alone rectify them.
