Howard Dean excoriated Candy Crowley’s interview with Ted Cruz on CNN Sunday morning, calling it “a very long interview with very little content,” and saying “God help us” if Cruz ever became more than a U.S. Senator.
Cruz had pitched allowing people to buy health insurance across state lines as one of the policies he would put in place instead of Obamacare.
“I don’t want the Texas insurance commissioner being up here in Vermont,” Dean said. “We have had universal health insurance for all our kids for twenty years. They have 22% of their children uninsured in Texas. I don’t want anything to do with Texas’ health care system in Vermont and I don’t want our people buying Texas health insurance.”
“So these are crazy ideas from the far right,” Dean said. “He’s a slick spokesman and god help us if he gets to be anything more than the senator from Texas.”

Given past history I would think that the RNC gives it to Christie.
Fun to listen to Dean whine though

Yes, God will have helped us if Cruz becomes President.
Funny how the left invokes God when they oppose His every commandment.

I wish we could secede. Truth be known we in Texas are tired of you Vermont losers and other libs and RINO’s telling us how to do things your way.
To: SeekAndFind
and I dont want our people buying Texas health insurance. How very authoritarian of you, Doctor Scream.
You are all condemned men.
We keep you alive to serve this state.
So row well. . . . . .and live.

Any point in waiting for a chorus from the media about how the Democrat party is prejudiced against Hispanics and is doing all it can to keep them down?

Agreed. I think there’s a few counties here in MN that would happily carve out our own little country.

If Cruz decides to run you can bet the left and the GOP-e will go into full blown “Birther” mode!!
Woo hoo!!
And if he does and he’s the strongest conservative running (running against the likes of GOPers Chris Christie or Jeb Bush for example) FR will be CRUZ COUNTRY!! And I’m pretty sure the grassroots tea party conservatives will be right there with us!!
GO, CRUZ, GO!!
Damn Tokyo Rove and the GOP-e statists. Full speed ahead!!

Ted’s father was not a US citizen until 2005 and not at the time of Ted’s birth. Nor was he born in the US or on a US territory. Two of the three requirements constituting NATURAL BORN citizen not met.
Sux, I love guy.
NATURAL BORN does not mean being delivered without C-section or drugs.

You may be right, but Obama has set a precedent, and all the Obamabots think he's natural born, so they can't say anything about Cruz. BUT...brain-dead liberal's penchant for gross hypocrisy will guarantee they'll bring it up.

We can and very well might when the circumstances get right. For now we are suffering mostly from what we imagine is in the cards. If much of what the libs really want comes to pass then Texas will have little other choice.
