Is Ted Cruz the new Ronald Reagan?
The American Thinker ^ | September 24, 2013 | Thomas Lifson

Posted on 09/24/2013 8:18:46 AM PDT by pgkdan

That's the provocative thesis of Jeffrey Lord, writing at The American Spectator. He's the one we've been waiting for, to borrow an expression. Here is some of the case Lord makes:

...terrified Republicans have turned on Ted Cruz like they once went after... Ronald Reagan.

Yes, Ronald Reagan.

While no Republican Senator will ever breathe anything but the highest of laudatory tributes to Reagan these days, in fact once upon a time Reagan himself was treated in exactly the same way that Senator Cruz (not to mention Governor Palin) is treated today.

Why? For doing exactly what Senator Cruz is doing today.

Cruz is the future of the GOP. When all the rotten things that Obama and his CABAL have done, come out—and they will— Any Democrat who supported Obamacare or the President will be turned out in a purge at the ballot box. So powerful that all the cheating, ballot box stuffing can reverse it. The Democrats will need to drop all the progressive-socialists and re-organize into the American Party they once were.
