It will get “quantified”, in TEXAS, at senatorial election time. Nowhere else.
Cruz will have gazillion$$$ to spend on rehabilitating his sorry carcass, so “yes”, he needs a decent and capable opponent and some PAC push back to level the cash field advantage, but soo many are hoping that happens.
Right now McCaul is the man. He sits on the Homeland Security Committee, appears regularly on FOXMegyn Corp cable and has a profile of seriousness, and is totally free of the Cruz/Obama/Hillary clinically proportioned level narcissism.
We will be actvely trying to banish the sob to the nearest corner, where he can hawk to the rubes the flag, the Bible and the Constitution.
Cruz was small on paper, but big in the mouth. He rode those three under-pinnings hard and undercut everyone of them.
I think Cruz was the victim of less than one term in office. He just wasn’t politically smart.
First, if smart he would have recognized his Canadian citizenship and gone after an eventual scotus appointment or after a long while, the majority leader chair.
Second, the Canada thing kills him for all future potus elections. It might kill his senatorial chances in Texas. I don’t know.
Hey RitaTX those rubes sound like bitter clingers. FReegards.
