"Anyone bothered that he’s taking the Harry Reid tactic against Republicans?"

Referencing an obvious truth is now a Harry Reid tactic ?

Does anyone really think the Kochs and cohorts give over $1bil each cycle and ask for nothing in return?

If so, please make you case.

Ted Cruz is a doctrinaire constitutional conservative. To the extent that monied interests agree with his views, he asks for money in order to promote and actualize those views. He doesn’t alter his views to get money.

The Kochs have been funding candidates on the right for decades and without their help many wouldn’t have been elected.

Intelligence is in short supply around here.

What I think is that the Koch brothers give billions to candidates and organizations that promote free-market policies.

And of course they expect something in return, namely, that the recipients of their gifts will continue to support and promote free-market capitalism.

What’s not to like?
