I'd be much more impressed by him if he'd actually been able to get something done about it.
I don't think exposing things we already knew were going on, even if we didn't know exactly how they were doing it, is particularly noteworthy.
When Rush Limbaugh exposed the House Bank Scandal, he managed to get it eliminated, and he wasn't even a member of the body.
IMO, Cruz’s biggest accomplishment so far has been blinding his idiotic followers to the fact he hasn’t been as Conservative as they think he has.
The 2007 McCain/Kennedy immigration plan?
Ted’s plan in 2013 looked almost identical.

Has it occurred to you that it is up to us -- the voters -- to do something about it. An individual Senator can't do anyting more than blow the whistle. Only we have the power to change the nature of the Congress.
Cruz had the courage to blow the whistle. Now, it's up to us.
