It’s a good thing that I knew that Cruz, as a fallible mortal and even more, as a politician, was bound to disappoint before it was over. I never put that much faith in any politician, so I’m never disappointed. Even so, out of all the viable choices currently declared, I’ll still vote for him. Unless he does something really egregious on one of my priority issues, one being illegal immigration, and another being sodomite “marriage”.
Also... it is not perfectly clear to me how any bill can override the Constitution.
These issues are symptomatic of a larger spiritual problem that no amount of secular politics can fix.
I’ll wait to pass judgment on him until he has a chance to explain his position.
I voted no on cloture because we should have insisted on amendments to put real teeth in this bill. Ultimately, I voted yes on final passage because it may delay, slightly, President Obamas ability to lift the Iran sanctions and it ensures we will have a Congressional debate on the merits of the Iran deal. I will continue to lead the fight to prevent the Islamic Republic of Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons and to protect the national security of America and our allies.
