It was a losing battle.
So too was the Alamo, but without it, we probably wouldn't have won Texas independence. Sometimes, you have to take the bullet! Sometimes you have to engage the enemy to see their full force (that is what Cruz did - he exposed the GOPe is as corrupt as the Dems & Obama).
I think Cruz was fighting for the long haul, not for today. I can see the tactics as plain as day. He has exposed ALL the corruption in Washington. People may still choose to see that only one side or the other is corrupt or wrong, but he did us all a favor in waging this battle.
Some on here have said, "He distracted from the failures of the Obamacare rollout." BS! He showed that one side and ONLY one side is willing to fight against this failure! Since people are going to be dealing with the Obamacare fiasco for the next 2.5 months, trust me, they will remember that Cruz and Tea Party were fighting against this stupid machine.

There are times that all that’s left to do is fight. This is not the case in this scenario, IMO. We have elections coming up. We can fight there. That is our Alamo moment.
