Fidelity to ideas is preferable to loyalty to a person.

<"Any minute now the challenges to his ideological purity will start.">

Already have....what everyone here wants is Ted Cruz because dammit, he says everything they want to hear. One big problem with an ideological purist who has never held an executive branch political position is he's likely unelectable.

I like Cruz just fine, but how will he make things happen among a highly politically charged congress that he's already alienated?

It's easy to be a minority party back bencher who complains about things and never has to take a difficult vote.....just ask Barack Obama. The difference is all Democrats rally to their candidate, while Republicans like to nitpick the shit out of them.
