Sadly, it wasnt a filibuster.
Apparently, Mitch McConnell is only a liar when Ted Cruz is running for POTUS.
I will support Cruz.
I supported him in the primary, I will support him again
It was a show for a prescribed number of agreed upon hours. It did not hold up any legislation and was not a filibuster.
One citizen parent, one foreign national parent, foreign birth, three possible citizenships, natural born citizen have but one.
If the GOP ever nominates an ineligible candidate I will vote my conscience.
Sadly some forget that Ted Cruz was fighting against the rinos for us when Donald Trump was still supporting democrats. I love Donald Trump but he came late to the conservative cause. He has more than made up for it though!!!
So Beto gets elected. He might get appointed as a junior member of the committee on silly walks and a office in the wash room of a GOP senate. And Texas gets what? I hope Texas voters are not that stupid.....
Primary races
GOP
Sen Cruz 1,322,724 85.36% Gov Abbott 1,400,647 90.42% DEM O'Rourke 644,632 61.81% Others 397,282
O'Rourke has a hill to climb.
I don't think that will happen
Cruz or Rand after Trump’s 2nd term ends....
Can someone wake me up now?
“I love Donald Trump but he came late to the conservative cause. He has more than made up for it though!!!”
And Trump is in his 70s! I suspect Cruz will grow with age and experience.
We noted that too...Has he taken to the podium and demanded Mueller cease this BS? Has be demanded this corrupt political attack stop? Where are Cruz's speeches/comments voicing outrage regarding people in D.C. literally attempting to illegally undermine, compromise, frame and overthrow the President of the United States?
I got to hear him and meet him in 2015. The night was so invigorating that I barely slept all night. If he could do what he knows, we'd be a different country overnight!
Now, I voted for Dewhurst in round one as a really not informed voter. Second round talked to many who closely follow all candidates statewide and was told to really look at Ted Cruz and when I did, my opinion quickly changed. I really almost campaigned for him to others who were not watching as close.
God bless Texas and Ted!!

Let us not form a circular firing squad here. The campaign was brutal. The invective was strong. However, each man has to reach a truce to save or Union. DJT and Cruz and Paul are on our side. So lets us go kick some lefty azz.
I don’t believe Cruz would have been as effective in the White House as Trump has been so far, but there’s no question that Cruz is one of the strongest, most articulate and most principled conservatives in the country right now. Texas needs him, conservatives need him, and the president needs him.
Beto in not a Kennedy wannabe.
Beto is Wendy Davis with a penis.
Cruz is not eligible for the presidency.
Either you support and abide by the constitution or you don’t. Cruz is not a natural born citizen. He is not eligible for the presidency.
the size of the Dem led pushback on Cruz not being eligible Constitutionally to be President............
.........................................................
Dem led my foot!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The Constitution is clear on the subject and Cruz is NOT a natural born citizen. I’m a dyed in the wool Republican and I DETEST the fact that Cruz tried to pull the wool over everybody’s eyes, directly against the Constitution. i would never ever vote for him for president! I believe in the Constitution AS WRITTEN!
