Ted Cruz’s campaign HQ opens in Houston
Legal Insurrection ^ | Wednesday, April 1, 2015 at 6:45pm | Kemberlee Kaye

Senator Ted Cruz’s campaign headquarters opened in Houston last night. Nestled in the bustling Upper Kirby neighborhood, the campaign HQ is situated in the heart of Houston.

Handing out small American flags and Ted Cruz labelled bottles of water, volunteers sauntered through the crowd with iPad minis, ensuring faithful supporters were registered for campaign updates. With more attendees than anticipated, the lines to view the office space were quite lengthy.

To keep people entertained, Rafael Cruz was there to shake hands:

And to keep supporters hydrated:

Move over Marco Rubio, Cruz has his own water.

Though I should mention the fact that I partook of a delicious, patriotically decorated cookie is in no way indicative of candidate partiality. I just like cookies.

The office space is far nicer than average campaign digs, but modestly so, and this is the campaign hub. There’s an office for the Senator, open office space for staffers, and even a play room for Cruz’s daughters.

To wrap up the open house, Cruz addressed his hometown supporters with an abbreviated version of his Liberty University campaign kickoff. It’s safe to say we can expect to hear a lot more “imagining” throughout the course of Cruz’s campaign.

"We don't intend to turn the Republican Party over to the traitors in the battle just ended. We will have no more of those candidates who are pledged to the same goals as our opposition and who seek our support. Turning the Party over to the so-called moderates wouldn’t make any sense at all." -- President Ronald Reagan

They had more people attending the opening than anticipated, and they had long lines of people waiting to see the campaign headquarters.

It would certainly be interesting:

“MacLaine has claimed that, in a previous life in Atlantis, she was the brother to a 35,000 year old spirit named Ramtha channeled by American mystic teacher and author J. Z. Knight.”

The elevator ride to the 7th floor may have caused some congestion. I think much
of the speaking, greeting was conducted outside based on some photos I’ve seen.
