I’m thinking Ted wanted to let it run its course so that when he DID come out against it, it was more than just an opinion on a bill.

No, he did a LOT more than simply let it run its course. He co-authored that awful WSJ Op-Ed with Paul Ryan defending TPA, put out canned talking points trying to rebut Sessions, and then had his staff out in force on his Facebook page and the various Conservative forums (including FR) trying to sell the snake oil.

Before that Op-Ed, I was ready and willing to work for and donate to Cruz's campaign.

Now, he's just another GOP shill to me.

I confess I’m not married to my position. You may very well be right.

Quoted for truth as the young whippersnappers say.

I could still see myself voting for Cruz over Hildebeast but any illusion I had that he is a transformational figure is gone.

Cruz did his part. He carried the water for team Obama.

I love how when the truth is spoken all the 5th graders come out with the “troll!” nonsense.

Forgetting this was a very serious vote about a very serious matter. Disagree with the brainiacs and you’re a troll. Oooh......lol
