I say what I've said many times before about Ted Cruz: he has never put a foot down wrong.

It was inspiring to watch him hour after hour on his feet filibuster against the forces of darkness in the Senate without committing any gaffe. Now he courageously runs the gauntlet of leftist gotcha artists to expose his candidacy to prolonged open ended interviews without a single hiccup.

In all of this, Cruz beautifully articulates sound conservative positions without apology but also without defensiveness. He is the kind of spokesman who puts the lie to snarky left-wing commentators who would make conservatism disreputable. He restores conservatism to its proper reputation of intellectual as well as moral integrity.

Not sure voters are smart enough to elect him, but he’s our best candidate since Reagan.

“In all of this, Cruz beautifully articulates sound conservative positions without apology but also without defensiveness.”

What impressed me, one of many things recently, is his segment on Fox News with Bret Baier and the special report panel (as referenced/seen on FR and Youtube, as I wouldn't be caught dead with TV). Bret was trying to corner him on how if the Supreme Court struck down Obamacare from extending subsidies, would he be proposing some stopgap measures (however he put it) to soften the blow for people who had to buy Obamacare and weren't going to get compensated, and Ted said no and stood his ground without reservation. Bret looked flabbergasted and incensed in that moment that someone would actually hold to their principles rather than be swept up in feelgood and wanting to soften the blow. That is the moment when I saw real principal and conviction and immunity to the hedging with most politicians!

You get an “Amen!”

I have been on the fence between Cruz and Walker. I am now leaning more towards Cruz.
