Where are all the RINO lovers who said we MUST reelect McConnell and Cochran?

For that matter, the Cruz haters are strangely absent.

Oh yeah, they’re mostly the same posters!

Exactly! He’s all words! No action, just puffed up words written and/or spoken with a haughty condescending attitude to boot.

Why Ted Cruz is a leader:

While the basis of Ted Cruz's CRomnibus speech is against the funding of Amnesty in the budget bill, a lesson in politics begins at about 11 minutes. This is a 36 minute explanation of how our bills are passed that many people don’t seem to understand.

In the speech you hear Senator Cruz referring to Madame President and may wonder why. On this day, for political positioning Elizabeth Warren was given the leader’s chair. At the end Elizabeth Warren, the democrat presidential hopeful is dumbfounded by what was just presented and in her confusion she does what Barack Obama does – pushes the motion on to someone else that will be in charge later.

If Mr. Boehner has no problem in lying to God, he sure will never have a problem lying to us.

Krauthammer is as phony as a 3-dollar bill!

I wouldn't go that far but I too am very disappointed in Krauthammer after his incredibly stupid comment about Cruz helping Harry Reid with the confirmations. In the interview, Cruz explained that all of these people were going to get confirmed this week anyway. So maybe the confirmations came a day earlier. This is a big deal? I think not.

And, amazingly, today when he was given the chance to correct the record on this sorry Cruz falling into a Harry Reid Trap theory he doubled down on it.

Bye bye Charles. You have lost a lot of fans here at FR.

Every conservative will soon face the final challenge - abandon your principles or abandon the GOP. My choice is made.

While John Boehner – the poster child for the GOP’s gooey, marshmallowy majority –

...

The GOPe wants Big Government, graft, and is waging war against conservatives who are against what they want. There is nothing GOOEY about it.

The GOPe who went down in flames with Romney, Father of RomneyCare/ObamaCare, blamed the four million conservatives who did not vote for his loss. There will be many millions more conservatives not voting in ‘16 if they stick us with Jeb or Christie. They will lose again because there aren’t enough White millionaires to vote secular Republican, where only their fat wallet issues matter.

Yes , Baier did look a bit uncomfortable , but he asked good questions and allowed Cruz all the time he needed to explain his positions . Cruz hit it out of the park . I imagine Brett got a lot of emails regarding last nights show . I give him credit for giving equal time to Cruz .

It’s going to be hard to watch the constant free publicity for Jeb on FOX.
