Ted Cruz is announcing his candidacy for the U.S. presidency today, the anniversary of the passing of Obamacare, and much of the media and the looney left are foaming at the mouth with hatred. This morning on the MSNBC show, Morning Joe, both Mika Brzezinski and Donnie ("often wrong but never in doubt") Deutsch could not come up with enough derisive adjectives to express their disdain for this Texas senator. I had to switch channels.
Despite his legacy of media pans and even some Republican critics, Ted Cruz will be a formidable candidate for his perspicacity and combativeness. He is a very good debater and is well versed on all the critical issues facing our nation. Beyond his mediocre polls and the vitriol likely to come his way from many talking heads in the days ahead, I would not count him out. I personally would prefer the somewhat softer-edged Hispanic, Marco Rubio, as the Republican candidate ... but, like the surprising comment from John McCann, if Cruz becomes his party's candidate, I would support him.
It may be that, given how our current Emperor is doing his damnedest to diminish this country, by the time the next election comes around, we may have the appetite for a little more militancy on the part of the Republican candidate. If Hillary Clinton or some other female is the Democrat candidate, then it may well be another election pitting the head against the heart ... a contest that, this time, could well favor the head ... someone like the " courageous conservative" Cruz.

So once again the Republicans will fracture into fiefdoms of support. Let's just cut to the chase: Who do the Koch brothers support? -saint
Why are the Koch brothers so much more insidious than George Soros?
They are both insidious. But Soros certainly won't be backing a Republican. Let's be open-minded: It'll the person the Koch brothers support vs the person George Soros supports. BTW, if they win, the Koch brothers will put their picture on the twenty dollar bill.
And Soros, on the ten million-dollar Treasury Bond. (He already is vying to replace the queen on the British Pound.)
Cruz has no chance. His agenda is appealing to skin heads and crackpot conservatives. But he has failed to succeed with any of his anti-Obama attacks. The money will go elsewhere, probably to Rubio.
He speaks well of you ...
Hey Den! Cruz appeals to our dear blogger who is clearly a courageous conservative but not entirely a crackpot... even though you can see the cracks his wailings still hold water.
Saint, why don't you guys get a room!
I want to see Cruz's real birth certificate! I think he was born in Cuba.
