Rand Paul backs Ted Cruz on Obamacare
9/24/13 5:36 PM EDT Updated: 9/24/13 7:10 PM EDT
"Rand Paul is standing with Ted Cruz.
The Kentucky GOP senator will oppose a vote to end debate later this week on a House-passed spending bill, which includes a provision defunding Obamacare, a spokeswoman said. Cruz (R-Texas) is urging Republican senators to halt the bill procedurally later this week to prevent Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) from removing the Obamacare provision and pushing a clean spending bill back to the House this weekend.
“Personally it’s not a good a idea to shut down the government. It’s also though, not a good idea to fund Obamacare,” Paul said aside Cruz.
But in backing Cruz, Paul will vote opposite Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, his state’s senior senator. "

Bingo! Jim. He has been saying the same thing for over a week, people just haven't wanted to notice I guess.
Amnesty dance was enough t turn me off, but this should do it for any but the most loyal Party Line GOPe.
Nancy Mace and Lee Bright slamming Linda on Twitter over his absence. This is excellent.
GO TED GO!!!!!!!!!!
Hammer it home; People are being ruined by Obamacare and the Democrats.
“Paul tried to sandbag Cruz. It certainly wasn’t a helpful “question.”
I think they’re strawmen to be knocked down.
He was excellent Jim, but was it real or was it Memorex?
“For anyone who tweets- go #StandWithCruz.
For the rest of us who only read twitter:

Yes indeed,,,we got some golden active Austinites, right here on FR!!!!!
I’m the tarnished one!

Good for Rand.
If #StandWithCruz is trending in Austin...Cruz’ mission is on target!
Cruz just subtly sniped McCain and his staffers. Good stuff.
Good for you, austinaero!! Keeping it real for the *weird* Austinites :)
Caught that! Love Cruz’ diplomacy.
Rand has a bad habit of wanting to be on all sides of every big issue. He did that with amnesty and now he doing it with kenyancare.
“Texas would be a true force to be reckoned with with Ted Cruz at the helm, our own power grid, oceans, lakes, farms and ranches, oil and refineries..sigh..”
