I've met Ted Cruz several times before he rose through the lime light and got himself elected in Texas. AND, I do believe in him but Sowell is foretelling the future of how the media (for the RATs) and GOPe is going to take Cruz apart at the next level beyond the present. Sowell's words, although painful, speak to what Senator Cruz (and his disciples) are going to have to bare.
Trust me, I don't like Sowell's article but because of who he is, and what he has written in the past, I continue to read it over and over looking for what Sowell is really trying to warn conservatives about.
Then how can you say he "nailed it"?
