You’re defending a man would couldn’t grasp the need to oppose Hillary Clinton with every fiber of his being last year. This means he didn’t find it important enough to prevent her from winning and being able to appoint 2-4 SCOTUS justices during her term in office.

Well, guess what. Every Cruz thread is going to be addressed the same way.

Those of us who found it every important to support our nation in it’s time of need, ARE NOT going to let Ted wiggle out of his predicament.

If you want to call me names Dave W, have at it. It won’t be the first time or the last.

Ted gambled. He lost.

He damaged himself beyond recovery. He did it.

I watched Cruz’s “Cross” of the NAACP guy, and it was quite impressive. The witness did not seem to fight back very much.

But the a**hole non-lawyer, Al Franken, poked some serious holes in Cruz’s arguments. For example, Cruz said a certain witness’ testimony (against Sessions) was retracted, and Franken went right to the record and pointed out that only a small portion was retracted, and that had been a portion benefiting Sessions.

I wanted so badly for Cruz to demolish this clown, but it just didn’t happen. He seems to do better on the prepared portions of his remarks, like the litany against the NAACP guy about their biased scorecard . . . but, when a strong lawyer opposes him (EVEN IF THEY’RE DEAD WRONG) like the ACLU guy, then he did not appear to me to have the desired follow-through.

Again, I was pulling for Cruz every step of the way . . . but was not highly impressed by the overall performance, even when I agreed strongly with his positions (like backing Jeff Sessions).
