Not effective? The guy won 5 of 9 Supreme Court cases!

But that’s okay- he’s not your guy. I’m sure you have, or will find, someone who represents your views. Good luck.

He’s a great lawyer, no argument, but he hasn’t been too successful in the Senate. I’ve been looking at Perry, and now Walker.

You need to be able to coalition build and outflank your opposition, that’s pretty primary as a skill set for president. He’s a brilliant and talented guy, just not in that way.

That's ok. I really don't expect everyone to vote for Cruz.

I've got an agenda, and so do many others. We'll keep volunteering and sending real money to the Cruz campaign.

I know who I want to vote for and I'm not ashamed of having an agenda to make sure he's the last man standing.

We live in DIFFERENT times....until there’s another 9/11...I doubt there will be a “coalition”

Cruz is basically saying to Obama “Prove that you are not a traitorous liar.” Game, set to Cruz.

An amendment like this is needed. Because as it stands now it's the worse bill ever. And what about the UN overriding of U.S gun laws and the empowering Obama giving him fast track authority on trade. I think Congress and the people should vote on any trade deal and it should not be handled soley by an anti-American communist dictator named Obama’

Once again, Senator Cruz is carrying the fight to Mr. Obama.
Anti Terrorists and Securty Moms and Dads need to support Senator Cruz.

All I know is that there have been a number of times (fast track is just the latest example) when a broad consensus of voters runs starkly contrary to the way their elected representatives are voting. There’s grassroots aplenty, all that is needed is leadership.

I have a ton of admiration for Gov. Perry. After that debate mess- up, many would have slipped into the background. But clearly, he doesn’t want that to be his legacy. He wants to prove himself, at least, to himself. That takes great courage.

I think he’s mishandled. The guy has a great asset, he looks like a President. But, they have him wearing those old guy eyeglasses, and trying to mimic Cruz, speaking outside the podium.

IMO, Gov. Perry should stand in command behind the podium, and the audience should be able to meet his eyes.

I will. I'm giving real time and real money to the Cruz campaign. The only campaign showing any leadership.

I am glad that Perry has no government job right now. Since he was my governor, I wouldn't elect him as dog-catcher.

His real legacy is to try to get my teen daughters to take a vaccination for an STD. No thanks. He's a fricking liberal. I lived it.

I wrote that above passage. it's good to have an amendment like that than the original bill but even better to kill it altogether. It's the worst bill ever.

I think he’s probably exactly who we need in our corner on the international stage. The public might be about sick of tedious PC b.s., gay EVERYTHING, and failure to launch on any initiative backed by the voters, providing an opening for a guy who reliably gets the job done.

I appreciate the stands he too against gop-e, even though fruitless, especially so. Each time I hear him I am more impressed.

Well, I’m going to look askance at someone with the access and power he has that, well darn it, seems to never get the job done.

Sometimes there are so many good positive quotes available that it is hard to get them all in and clearly attributed.
The bill should be killed.

Looking at your posting history, I don't think you ever intended to support Cruz. That's ok. Lots of others are.
