They have been saying the right things. I have yet to see them do anything. I hope I'm wrong but it seems like Cruz is just speaking for attention, I'll happily eat my words when he fillibusters at every opportunity on every CR that does not contain the defund language.

I’ll tell ya, when I was at the defund rally in DC on the 10th I listened to Lee, Cruz, Paul, Bachman and others, and really didn’t get the sense that there was a lot of hope for our side.

It seemed as though they were letting us know that they tried, but other than whatever effect the people calling their reps. might have, it didn’t look very good. It was good to hear them speak, but on the whole I didn’t get the sense that we could expect any outcome which our side would consider even a small win. There were actually a lot of speakers, and each spoke for only 5 min., so the thing moved right along. We left after a little over an hour. I was getting bummed out by the messaging really.

But it looks like it turned around a little since then - I hope so anyway.
