HOUSTON Days after a top adviser to President Trump questioned Senator Ted Cruzs chances of winning re-election, the Texas lawmaker casually stepped into the pinnacle of his hometowns energy industry on Tuesday the lobby of the Petroleum Club of Houston, on the 35th floor of a downtown skyscraper.
Mr. Cruz shook hands while holding a cup of McDonalds coffee. By the end of his remarks to the American Petroleum Institute, the audience rose for two standing ovations. It was not a campaign event, but it might as well have been: Mr. Cruz was relaxed and confident, eager to both attack his Democratic opponent and to poke fun at himself and his critics.
When theres extreme anger and hatred on the other side, dont respond in kind, Mr. Cruz told the audience beneath the glittering chandeliers. Have fun. Be a joyful warrior. He recalled encountering a Twitter handle, Ted Cruz ate my son. I was really tempted to tweet, He was delicious, he said.

This case is closed. Two things, take a look at the Texas primary results and take a look at who the Democrats are running for Governor against present Republican, Greg Abbott, a woeful, non-competitive, gal, whom Abbott will crush much worse the he crushed Democrat, Wendy Davis four years ago. The Abbott vote will carry over to Ted Cruz...game over For Democrat, Beto O’Rourke!!! Case closed!!!
You’re VERY welcome, n00b.
This person seems suspicious to me.
I suspect DullProse of being an agent provocateur.
Not a chance. It wont even be close. Ted Cruz will CRUSH the noisy empty barrel.
You are of no relevance here and neither is your non existent vote.
Drudging up three day old NYT gibberish.
Is that why he won a massive 551 delegates in the GOP primaries in 2016, even with the best field of candidates the Republican Party has ever had?
I'm wondering if it's better Cruz step down (which he never would) and get an actually compelling/Trump-supporting/likable person...and then this race would be back to being a shoo-in for GOP...
SO ANNOYED!
DullProse got the ZOT, along with a deletion of all of its “postings.”
No, Ted Cruz is a good senator.
Jason Kander drops out of the KC Mayoral Race citing “PTSD”.
I don’t believe for a minute that’s the real reason.
It might be, but maybe he saw my post saying KC Mayor is a dead-end job. ;-)
When I heard that Kander dropped out of a slam-dunk race for a high-profile position that he could have parlayed into a future gubernatorial or U.S. Senate race (and from there, maybe, to the presidency), and the reason that he gave for dropping out, my only thought was “Incoming!” I think that soon we’ll hear about a sexual-harassment (or maybe even sexual-assault) claim against Kander.
Latest Eutholytics poll in TX has Cruz 51-42.
No, it won’t be close.
According to all my TX friends, that’s nonsense. ALL the energy is on the right, Cruz is kicking butt and betamale is being propped up by leftist polls.
Eutholythics yesterday had it Cruz 51-Betamale 42, and I don’t think it’s that close. TX will lose no red House seats.
Four lies in a row by someone who doesn’t like Cruz. Imagine that.
That’s what I was thinking too.
???? I have no problems with Cruz - have even donated a small amount to his campaign...did you see someone slamming Cruz and accidentally ping me with their response? (it happens-I’ve done it)
Senate race is at the top of the ballot Then U.S. House races Then governor.
