Everyone knows Cruz is allied with the conservative wing like Mike Lee and Jeff Sessions.
Neither one has endorsed Ted. Big red flag. He does say that he worked with Sessions on some bills he couldn’t get through on his own but with a conservative Senator by his side, Sessions was able to do the job Cruz couldn’t.
Sen. Mike Lee is in a unique position as the 2016 Republican primary field takes shape: Though not running himself, he’s close to three colleagues - Marco Rubio, Rand Paul and Ted Cruz...
Lee called the trio “three of my very closest allies in the Senate” at a breakfast hosted by the Christian Science Monitor, joking that it’s the first time he’s had that many co-workers seeking the Oval Office. He said he doesn’t expect to endorse one of them, mostly because that would be tantamount to “unendorsing” the other two.
