U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz was crisscrossing Texas this week, meeting with constituents in Houston, El Paso, San Antonio, Laredo, Amarillo, Lubbock, Dallas and Tyler. It wasn’t how Cruz had once hoped to be spending the second week of August, when, had things gone his way, he might have been hopscotching battleground states as the Republican nominee for president.
Instead, it was Donald Trump with rallies and speeches in North Carolina, Virginia, Florida and Pennsylvania — Donald Trump, who Cruz refused to endorse for president in his speech at the Republican National Convention in July, and who, the day after he accepted the nomination in Cleveland, said he would not accept Cruz’s endorsement if it were offered and swore he would spend what he could to defeat Cruz for re-election.
And so, Cruz found himself doing what a U.S. senator does during the August recess, particularly a senator who is up for a second term in two years and who, for the first time in his swift rise in Texas and national politics, finds himself not the hunter but the prey.
“I know there are people looking for someone to run against Ted Cruz because I’ve had four or five national leaders call to ask if I had an interest, which I don’t by the way,” said former Texas Republican Party Chairman Steve Munisteri, who added that Cruz’s traversing Texas is exactly what he ought to be doing right now.
Among Republicans being recruited to challenge Cruz, according to a recent CNN story, is U.S. Rep. Michael McCaul, a six-term congressman from Austin who chairs the House Homeland Security Committee. McCaul spokesman Walter Zaykowski said the congressman is focused on his job and re-election campaign this year — but he did not rule out a Senate run.

Ted Cruz? ...Ted Cruz?
That name rings a bell.
Oh yeah!! He runs the Spanish restaurant up the block. Good spanish food and music.
RejecTED
Praying that we Texans refuse cRuz.
No more Bushes, either. Same diff.
Somebody tell the Cubanadian that children of foreign nationals are not natural born citizens and children of foreign nationals that are born in foreign countries are DOUBLY not eligible.
Regardless, this situation with him now is a totally Texas matter and it is up to the citizens of Texas as to whether they want a man who couldn't live up to a pledge before this country represent them. Nationally, I think this man is off the political radar for anything beyond state level, if that.
Cruz is damaged goods, but this McCaul guy sounds like a RINO on steriods.
Unless I’m wrong about McCaul, I think Cruz should make a go of it - acknowledging his grave errors of the past year and showing tangible signs of repentance. Standing strong with Donald J. would help tremendously.
And forget Glenn Beck ever existed.
A Spanish restaurant? How ‘bout Tex=Mex?
I would think Texans might have an issue with a candidate who already is signalling that he plans on not doing his job (again) because he wants to run for another office as soon as he is re-elected to the Senate.
And he wont have Sarah wrapping him in a pretty TEA Party package this time around.
Texans should vote their conscious.
Pray America wakes
Ted Cruz has proven himself incapable of holding an electoral ofice.
He is a basket case.
No way I will vote for T Cruz...again. fool me once and I made a mistake, fool me again and I am the fool!!
On second thought, kick him out.
Ted can’t keep a pledge...
Same here
McCaul would be great to replace Lyin’ Ted.
