A pair of leading GOP operatives who have tried to oust Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell are quietly helping Ted Cruz's presidential campaign behind the scenes, strengthening Cruz's ties to the most rebellious parts of Washington.
Leaders behind the Senate Conservatives Fund and the Madison Project, two of the main rabble-rousing outside groups that have been a thorn in the side of Senate leadership, are also helping organize donors and turn out voters for Cruz, group officials tell CNN. Cruz, who himself has been a McConnell nemesis in the past, has controversially raised money for the two groups, which backs primary challengers against incumbents like McConnell.
Matt Hoskins, the co-founder of the Senate Conservatives Fund, is fundraising for a pro-Cruz PAC, Make DC Listen, the Cruz group confirmed. Make DC Listen bundles hard-dollar contributions for the Cruz campaign much like Hoskins' group does, accepting donations up to $5,000...

The good news just keeps on coming.
As it should be.
If McConnell had a lower lip it would be quivering with rage.
Good
Good friends to have
Kinda reminds of how the media tried to make Ronald Reagan out to be a trigger-happy cowboy and voting for him would destabilize the US.
As if anyone could possibly be worse than Obama right now.
This sort of thing is why I think he would be an effective president even with a hostile congress.
Even with crappy leadership in the house and senate he would sidestep them and create his own de facto leadership. Plus there are those who will want to lick the boots of president no matter who it is. There are also some high profile resignations coming up.
Well, well, well ping.
This is what some of us have been trying to explain, here, for some time.
Conservative Review and Madison Project are headed up by longtime Cruz BFF, Daniel Horowitz. They’ve designed - and we’ve seen posted - REPEATEDLY - here, a biased Candidate Scorecard (the dreaded Twister board).
Heritage Action is headed up by Cruz ally and Trump hater (on vid calling Trump a name, on Sunday show), Michael Needham.
All makes more sense, now.
I’ll bet that is frosting McConnell’s grits. LOL!
Trump and Cruz like each other.
It’s absurd for Freepers to fall for Rove’s trap of trying to belittle the others’ favorite candidate, when it would disappoint both our respective candidates.
Both Cruz and Trump have strengths and weaknesses, yes.
But either is so far above the other candidates running its silly to destroy one another.
I agree.
Haven’t seen the Twister board in awhile.
I guess Cruz and Trump both ‘fell into’ that Rove trap, by looking at their tweets, today.
LOL...plenty to borrow, on some of the ‘twist’ threads, today. :)
Mark Levin is Editor-in-Chief of Conservative Review.
:)
Yes, I know.
He loaned his name, a few months back. Was sorry to see that, considering the unbiased ‘reviews’ and ‘scorecards’ coming out of CR. They’ve rated Rubio higher than Trump :(
