[Servant of the Cross]

This is a new article. It seems to me to be Sowell clarifying the initial article with less Cruz bashing and more establishment bashing, kind of suggesting they are each to blame ....

Moreover, each side in this political civil war has all too many valid criticisms of the other.

I believe all of his criticisms of Ted Cruz are wrong and continue to be surprised that he holds on to these accepted establishment talking points. What Dr. Sowell is saying that the Republican party needs ....

The Republican establishment has more than a tactical deficiency, however. They seem to have no principle that they offer or follow with any consistency. Their lack of articulation may be just a reflection of that lack of principle. It is hard to get to the point when you have no point to get to.

... is EXACTLY what Senator Cruz is delivering/proposing! It is the establishment that is stupidly thwarting it. Sowell should be completely on Cruz' side.
