Ted Cruz Sorry/Not Sorry About Losing the Vampire Vote
Pajamas Media ^ | 07/23/2014 | PAULA BOLYARD

Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) responded on Facebook to a True Blood TV episode that featured a storyline with a massacre at a fundraiser for Ted Cruz at the George W. Bush Presidential Library. In the episode, a pair of left-leaning vampires show up at the Republican fundraiser to search for the parents of their enemy. Pam, the female vampire, catches a glimpse of herself in a mirror with a sparkly dress and big hair and exclaims, “I’m a Republican!” Except instead of “Republican” she invents a sexually crude word that’s not worth repeating here because it’s juvenile and debauched. After Pam recovers from her shock at looking like a Republican, a bloody massacre ensues at the gala.

On his personal Facebook page, Cruz said he never expected to turn up on the “misogynist and profanity-ridden” show. “I’m sorry to have lost the vampire vote,” Cruz wrote, “but am astonished (and amused) that HBO is suggesting that hard-core leftists are blood-sucking fiends.”

But in retrospect, Cruz acknowledged that he probably never had a chance with the hard-core leftist blood suckers:

 

Then again, I guess I never had a chance w/ the vampire vote since the dead tend to vote overwhelmingly for Dems: https://t.co/U6uCqsRpuS

Cruz’s senior communications advisor (and frequent tag-team Twitter partner) Amanda Carpenter agreed:

 

True Blood plot showing vampires crashing Cruz fundraiser clearly false. Everyone knows dead people vote Democrat.

I hate the way they’ve depicted vampires these days.

I agree 100 percent.

Dracula used to be afraid of the cross... not today’s vampires.

One of the reasons I like vampire movies is that I find more truth in them than most other movies. A big part of that is that vampires are evil and they are repelled by the cross, as if they know there is a Jesus which so few people know.

Then, in the film... ABRAHAM LINCOLN: VAMPIRE HUNTER, The vampires were actually living and hunting in DAYLIGHT !!

Underworld: no crosses, gay British accents, stupid guns, tough chicks. It just sucked. 30 days of night was very interesting but their disdain for God "Gaa" they may not have cared about crosses. Did you watch any Buffy?

Agreed. The walking dead and vampires are ghoulish, but not interesting.

WE LOVE TED CRUZ!!!!!!!!!!!

And it was appropriate that the HBO episode of True Blood had the liberal socialists as blood sucking vampires, killing the Conservatives.

That Is What They DO!
