You knew it was coming. They're going Alinsky on his family.
Let them try.
He married someone who served in the Bush administration? Yuck. I guess they don’t see eye-to-eye politically.
Ted Cruz
Between 1999 and 2003, Cruz served as the director of the Office of Policy Planning at the Federal Trade Commission, an Associate Deputy Attorney General at the United States Department of Justice, and as Domestic Policy Advisor to U.S. President George W. Bush on the 2000 Bush-Cheney campaign.
Bush Administration
Cruz joined the BushCheney campaign in 1999 as a domestic policy adviser, advising then-Governor George W. Bush on a wide range of policy and legal matters, including civil justice, criminal justice, constitutional law, immigration, and government reform.[39]
Cruz assisted in assembling the Bush legal team, devise strategy, and draft pleadings for filing with the Supreme Court of Florida and U.S. Supreme Court, the specific case being Bush v. Gore, during the 2000 Florida presidential recounts, leading to two successful decisions for the Bush team.[36][41]
After President Bush took office, Cruz served as an associate deputy attorney general in the U.S. Justice Department[1][41] and as the director of policy planning at the U.S. Federal Trade Commission.[1][12][41]

And Durbin, projecting onto Cruz. Like Durbin isn't a putz for getting an Obamacare government payment while the rest of us get to pay one hundred percent.
I like Cruz, but his wife is really weird looking.
Are you familiar with the college she attended in California? I am, through living in that area as a child/young teen and also serving with an officer who graduated from there. He was a math genius who was transferred to the USMA as a math professor after he left Korea. It is considered one of the top 10 liberal arts colleges in the United States. She must be at least as smart as her husband, of whom Alan Dershowitz says Cruz was an outstanding student in my class, Dershowitz said. Without a doubt he is among the smartest students Ive ever had Ive had great students but he has to be at the top of anyones short list, in terms of raw brain power.
I’ve seen some less than flattering pictures but she seems normal and attractive in the girl-next-door kind of way in most of the photos.
She doesn’t look weird to me. Certainly not like Debbie Whatshername Schultz, or Nancy Pelosi, or most any Democrat woman. I think the family photo of them later in the thread is very nice. I’m glad they are on our side, personally.
I say lets use one of the liberal media...and liberal GOP media canards....and call the attacks “anti-Hispanic”. Hang them with their own rope
Ted Cruz is an Elitist masquerading as a populist.
NO. Not going to permitt any leftist argument on this any more. Time for them to donate teeth to the needy.
I have not and will not vote for his wife... she matters not as long as she makes Ted happy. Ted is the real deal... I never want to hear from his wife on politics... I don’t care!
As is almost every politician above dog catcher, including everyone on Mount Rushmore, don’t you agree? What were FDR, JFK, LBJ, the Bushes, Dan Quayle, Al Gore, both Clintons, BHO, Andrew Jackson, Herbert Hoover and just about everybody else you and I can think of?
Since when do we here at FR not expect the NYT to use THE most unflattering picture they can find?
Ted Cruz’ wife is fabulous.
She is accomplished and in it for the right reasons
The Times investigated her completely and this is all they could find
They are the losers here and tgey know it
“Mrs. Cruz is a managing director at Goldman Sachs”
That’s all I need to know.....
I saw a very pretty Mrs. Cruz with her two beautiful daughters in a video of an appearance of Ted Cruz at a rally last month. This is the first I have read of her background and I am impressed with her education and work experience. Both environmentalists and vegetarians are not unique to liberalism. My right wing, conservative, family has always been interested in both and and lean to the vegetarian way of eating, much less meat than we accustomed ourselves to as our finances improved over time. Also we all are interested in and follow vitamin and exercise routines and our health reflects the advantage of being aware of the benefits of nutrition to mind and body. I believe that Ted Cruz has a wife who is up to the very challenging role of supporting him in his efforts to save this Republic which has provided them both with opportunities for the life they are able to enjoy. I wish them both the best of life for themselves and their family.
I don’t care if his wife eats grasshoppers three times a day. If Cruz runs, he will get my vote.
