How many times can Shieffer mention ‘shutdown’ during the Cruz interview?
Cruz doesn’t take the bait, but responds with the Prez’s lies about keeping your doctor and keeping your health plan.
Cruz does tell Shieffer that it was Obama and Reid who threatened the shutdown, when Shieffer continues to confront Cruz as being the one who shut down the government.
Shieffer asks whether Christie is still a viable presidenial candidate, and whether Cruz will run.
Cruz says he is representing the people of Texas.
Shieffer cuts him off with a thank you.
Cruz got Schieffer’s dander up. Beautiful. Two Texas pols from diametric opposite sides of the spectrum.
