He has a lot of Palin in him, he wants to influence politics and lead others to help him make changes. He doesn’t just want to fight and stand strong, he wants political victory.

Ted Cruz should burn down the following “bridges:”

* Republican Cave-In Bridge;
* Republican Bi-Partisam Bridge;
* Republican Grand Bargain Bridge;
* Republican Deal Bridge;
* Republican Kick-the-Can-down-the=Road Bridge;
* Republican Budget Extension Bridge;
* Republican Fear-of-control-of-the-Purse Bridge;
* Republican Fear of Impeaching Democrats Bridge.

This citizen says Thank You Ted! No more polite political discourse, or worse - high theatre for the masses, with all the key players meeting for drinks and dinner at the end of the day.

It is our freedom that is at stake here, and it would seem that Sen. Cruz gets it.

Dear Lord, keep watch over this man, and share Your strength with him.

I was going to say this writer was a mouthpiece for the rinos. You gave proof of that, thanks. You should see the vicious comments at the post. I think leftist groups pay people to write nasty things, but middle very middle school. No substance. It’s like a wall they build around to keep true discussion out.

Well. It depends. If he wants to run for POTUS, it absolutely matters. You can not win the nomination without the Party machine. If they turn against Ted, he may win a Primary here and there but that will be it. How do you think we got Romney. I certainly don’t think he needs to go along to get along, but you have to decide if you want to isolate yourself. Maybe you do. But, yes ... it matters.
