He is most certainly the leader of the opposition. The minority leader SHOULD be, but he’s always WITH the opposition, as is his lieutenant, and HIS lieutenant.

Yup.

2016 POTUS Nomination is now his to lose.

Stay smart, stay principled, and he will be the Nominee.

Erickson, who I don’t usually like much, is right on the money with his statement.

Cruz is smart. He’s not out there as the lone symbol of constitutional conservatives. I like the colalition he’s putting together, including Rubio. Rubio just burnt all bridges to the RINO side. And that give-and-take with Rand Paul? Fantastic.

you nailed it.

If he walks and talks like Reagan for the next 2 years he is going to be the next president

the only one I would prefer more than him right now is Palin, and my current dream ticket is Palin/Cruz

Had a nice chat with Rubio’s office today. They were glad to be in the fight. Id say look for bigger stuff out of both Cruz/Rubio/Lee in the future.

Me too!

But I get a gut feeling, that like Debra in the Old Testament, she'll only step into the fray if there are no Men to lead.

Right now, it appears that Senator Ted Cruz has decided to Lead!

Rubio is a complete sellout. He will never have another vote from me!

See what happens when a GOP pol demonstrates and leads with conservative principles? There should be a chamber full of Cruz and Lee types but the great ones are very few indeed.
