Almost got sick at Cruz telling his CPAC audience that his campaign was a “grassroots movement.” He even claimed to have won Minnesota (although I’m sure his debate-honed rhetoric would get him out of that statement if he were challenged). He even stole the Bush/Cheney 2000 line of “Help is on the way.”
I never heard anyone so in love with the sound of his own voice. He needs a good director. He frames every single sentence as if it were the most important thing ever uttered in the history of man.
SNL, don’t disappoint me.
I watched some of it but Ted wears thin real quick. I have pretty much tuned him out. He needs to get back to the Senate and try to make some conservative votes.

Bingo.
And speaking of "uttered," Cruz drops in his Magic Power Word "utterly" whenever he wants to impress himself further.
"You know Firebrand. This morning I woke up and thanked God that I was in the United States. I got out of bed, the bed that was made by hard working Americans from the great state of Kansas...and put on my slippers. And as I walked to the kitchen I remembered that many immigrants huddled together, hungry and half awake as they too, walked. They walked to freedom. They walked to liberty. And I opened the refrigerator...marveling at the light...the light that represented the light of God shining on the bounty...and I took out the egg..the egg that was produced by a chicken that was fed by an unsung worker who was up at 3 AM to feed that noble chicken. And when I said I was going to fry it and eat I did EXACTLY what i said I was going to do. Now...my opponent, Donald....Donald breathe...breathe...my opponent said his favorite eggs are fried eggs. Yet the New York times hinted that he might be "flexible" and that he might really mean a different type of egg preparation. Now I have just one question....can we trust a man who's can flip flop on what types of eggs he likes?
“I never heard anyone so in love with the sound of his own voice. “
And what a disturbingly terrible voice it is. I just could not imagine having to listen to him if he managed to win. I can’t imagine a debate beetween Cruz and Clinton, they are the worst of the worst when it comes to speaking voices. Lucky me, he’s not going to win.
Yes! Every Cruz speech goes like that: Line. Applause, whoops. Line. Applause, whoops. Line. Applause, whoops.
And that voice he’s in love with is like a dentist’s drill. The guy needs major surgery to unplug his nose and sinuses.
And he’s a serial liar.
“He frames every single sentence as if it were the most important thing ever uttered in the history of man.”
Well said. Gets very tedious. He acts like he is addressing a jury, he pauses between each sentence a bit too long, and acts like he is going to make the world tremble with the truth he is about to reveal. And then he uses that smirky voice.
Not to mention that every other thing he says is a LIE!
Lyin Ted. Has no cred.
“He even claimed to have won Minnesota”
He’s like Al Gore — lies when he doesn’t even “have to”. Pathological. Good thing he’s not Pinocchio.
I never heard anyone so in love with the sound of his own “voice.”
I don’t know which is worse, listening to Cruz or Obama. I get the same visceral reaction every time I hear both of them. Wherever did Cruz pick up that cadence? I know his father claims to be a minister, so maybe that’s it. (I think Cruz’ dad is a preacher the same way Rev. Al and Jesse Jackson are. Not ordained scam artists.)
His hand movements are especially annoying, so you can’t even push mute to make him go away.
