I pray that he does win!!

He hasn't announced his bid for president, has he? And if he did, I'm not sure that it'd be a good thing; according to the info I've seen he was born in Canada and his father didn't become a naturalized citizen until 2005 — so I don't think that Mr. Cruz qualifies under the Natural Born Citizen clause. (I think the McCain/Obama election was put forward to establish precedent for ignoring the NBC-clause; Mitt Romney's father was born in Mexico [to American citizens] so I'm unsure of his [and therefore Mitt's] status under the strictest NBC definitions I've seen.)

We need him so badly!

I agree; but, honestly, I think he'd do better on the USSC — I have virtually no respect for that institution because of the people and decisions it's put forth, and that needs to change. (GONZALES V. RAICH, KELO V. NEW LONDON, and KENTUCKY v. KING spring immediately to mind.)

One of Ted’s guys yesterday said there’s a 90% chance he’s running, and that’s ‘low-balling’ it.
