This lib has brought up an excellent idea.
The Constitution does not prevent a sitting US senator from becoming Speaker.
Imagine a world in which Ted runs the House as well as remaining in the Senate.....

yes, I proposed this yesterday, or maybe Wednesday, in a thread about Cruz.
I don’t think Van Hollen has any idea that this is legal, and might be embraced.

I’m sure Hitler was furious when “Normandy Beach Master” Eisenhower arrived as well.

“It was Senator Cruz calling the shots, and thats why people around here are calling him Speaker Cruz today.” He added, “It means when Speaker Boehner says hes going to get something done from now on, hed better be checking with Senator Cruz to see if hes gonna get the votes”
Sounds like the best plan I’ve heard in a long time!
To: bestintxas
It’s called leadership. If Boehner won’t do it, then Ted Cruz will.

Rep. Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) blasted Republican leadership for letting Speaker Cruz "call the shots," Funny thing Chris, the Press must have forgot to quote your anger at Chuckles (The Clown) Schumer when he preaches to the house about Legislation he wants them to pass? Whiney little bitch, take a Midol!

I remember in 1982 when then Senator Alan Simpson, “R”-WY chastising Senator Helms in the same way as was done here to Cruz. Helms had fought against some liberal agenda item, which I can’t recall, that prolonged a special session when it was time for the Christmas break. Simpson began calling Jesse “Grinch”.

Ted Cruz is showing them how it's done.

Well, sometimes effective leadership in Congress is too important as some know best how the sausages are made.
In any case I prefer Governors to be Potus as they have proven ability at leadership, whereas Senators are hired simply to offer a persuasive opinion only. See john McCain

KBH typified the 'go along, get along' politician. I'm so glad to be rid of her. Her legacy is zip, zero, nada, nothing!
Cruz has already established himself as this nation's leading statesman in the Senate. Cornyn on the other hand, an establishment RINO who must be defeated or ran out of Washington and Texas.
