I'm thinking the author lives up to his name on a regular basis.

in Republican seats that are largely whiter and more rural than the rest of the country," writes Slate's David Weigel.

Liberals can't pick their own nose without finding racial implications in the act.

There is NO racial component to supporting or opposing Obamacare.

Cillizza and Sullivan warn, "remember that while your own party establishment probably can't keep you from a presidential nomination, they can make it a heck of a lot harder to win one."

Did that statement make sense to them when they wrote it?

Poll one more question: Is shutting down government a bad thing? I’ll bet the answer is no by the majority of Americans.

Everybody left and right loathes establishment republicans so it's always a good idea to separate yourself from them. And he's a good draw on the fund raising circuit from looking at FEC.GOV.

There was a guy in the other party long ago who had grass roots support. He was also from a southern state, in fact just next door to Texas. His name was Huey Long and the then establishment base in La and in DC hated him, called him a demigod and incited an assassin to remove him from the playing field. While I do not subscribe to Long’s politics, the methods he employed against the establishment were wonderful and they worked IMO. He also received a constant barrage from the establishment and their minions. The message here is not one of conservative or liberal, it is one of outsiders against the insiders.

Our system is broken given the amount of political corruption that has taken hold of it, in fact, it is almost broken beyond repair. If Cruz is not able to elicit more support than a handful of cohorts in his quest, it has been killed. Furthermore, the establishment will have assassinated Cruz, the tea party and true conservatives everywhere without firing a shot. Frankly, they are too cowardly to do that anyway, they will use the smear and gossip to do their killing.

Does this author really think a Solicitor General of any state can be “deranged”? Cruz was Solicitor Gen for the state of TX before this election. A brilliant mind with conservative values and miles of common sense, feared and hated by his own eParty and the Dems.

We’ll see when he goes up against Hillary in a debate and tells America “I’m the guy who tried to stop this for you”.
