It wasn’t a hard sell to get Texas Sen. Ted Cruz to speak at Donald Trump’s famously plush Mar-a-Lago Club mansion in the wealthiest county in Florida.

Palm Beach County Republican Party Vice Chairman Mike Barnett has been holding the spot for Cruz since last year, when conservative talk show host Laura Ingraham beat him to the punch and headlined the county party’s 2013 annual Lincoln Day fundraiser.

Here's a direct youtube link to some of this speech:

He's clearly quite comfortable giving speeches (While at Princeton he won the top speaker award at both the 1992 U.S. National Debating Championship and the 1992 North American Debating Championship). We know he excels in a debate format (He was Princeton's highest-ranked debater in the 1995 World Universities Debating Championship). If he can learn to be anywhere near as comfortable in televised appearances with hostile interviewers, he's golden. (I'm still cringing over his Leno appearance)

Here's my favorite picture from this Florida appearance:

Must watch! He’s good. He reminds me of Reagan.

Great post! I didn’t know that about my senator!

Lucky you! He’s terrific.

He makes us proud!
