Unfortunately Cruz won't be leading; Boehner and McConnell will. Cruz will be the voice in the wilderness that the establishment ignores.
I actually doubt that. If the GOPe gets the Senate it won't be because everyone hates Obambi. Cruz and a few others, will have set the new standard, simply because so many want to return to our roots.
I believe the old guard will have much to think about, and we all know how they flip-flop. If they flip towards conservatives, great. Remember, how the House won the majority because of conservatives? The McPains, Gramnesty, and the do nothing AckConnell still cherish their jobs. However, you can bet Sen. Collins will always disregard our Constitution. At least Snow is gone.
If only the Founding Fathers had put term limits in the Constitution or as an Amendment. But then, they couldn't foresee self-serving politicians that would spend their life dictating our inherent rights and spend so much time trying to establish a legacy through their unnecessary and over-bearing legislation.
If only I had a time machine...what I would tell Mr. Washington, Mr. Jefferson, Mr. Adams. Mr Madison and all the Fathers of our nation what happens when you don't include term limits in your Constitution.
Texas has the right idea with legislative sessions being every other year. The less legislatures are in session, the less harm they can do. That's second on my list after term limits - reduced Congressional sessions.
Spot on assessment! Cruz will be kept far away from any position of influence or power if the Republicans take control of the senate. For one thing he embarrasses them, he calls the GOPE squishes out on important issues and makes them votes when it counts and that is the last thing a liberal wants to do, show their true colors. For this alone he will be fought tooth and nail far worse than anyway the GOPE would ever battle a democrat.
