He stopped nothing. He did not filibuster any of the ridiculous bills passed since he has been there

He is a first term senator. He was not there in 2009 when Ocare was being slammed through.

Did you despise Sen. Cruz when he stood there for 21 hours trying to defund Obamacare? Should he not have bothered since he was up against a behemoth of opposition? Well, he didn’t lose that battle, the American people did by not calling or showing up at the Senate or senate offices in enough numbers to scare those who could’ve made the difference. We blew it, not Cruz or his associates. They did their job and I respect that, despite the outcome.
