Exactly. I'm a Cruz fan but he's NOT going to get a pass on this. Nobody is going to pass a resolution ala McCain that he is qualified. The media isn't going to smear "birthers" as nut jobs as they did with Obama. Judges aren't going to dismiss suits. It will be the full force of both parties going against Cruz and using every means at their disposal to get him disqualified.
Honestly, we have a lot to do with how successful the left might be at pushing the birther issue. There is a close to zero probability that a real case will emerge, given the mechanism for ascertaining candidate eligibility. The effort to cast doubt on Ted’s eligibility is mainly smoke and mirrors. To the extent the left believes they can peel off Cruz votes by scaring the ill-informed voter, to that extent they can get some mileage out of this issue. But the actual problem of eligibility is hokum.
