- Whither Ted Cruz?
I have read speculation that Cruz anticipates being rewarded for his efforts - not with party nomination for POTUS. Rather he is pursuing a seat on the Supreme Court. It's difficult to accept that Cruz is one of the gullible tools in the GOPe/RNC...

Cruz is a moron: Either disingenuous or cannot count
Why, after the obvious failing process (both of his resistance AND the Obamacare roll-out)did Cruz persist in betting all, including the Republican majority in the House on DEFUNDING Obamacare by threatening default?
Given what Dershowitz has said about Cruz I find it hard to believe he did not realize in terms of head counts that he did not realize this effort could not succeed.
What MIGHT have succeeded was to insist Obamacare encompass Congress and it’s staff just the the people faced the mandated action.
What might have succeeded was to make sign up voluntary for a year while HHS got it’s cloud in order.
What might have succeeded was a discussion/filibuster about interest in the debt and what we could do with that money instead of paying China.
What might have succeeded was the testimony of thousands in trying to sign up.
Instead Mr. Cruz set up the House by misleading them about the votes he had in his pocket (by Dems) in the Senate.
But he and the Republicans have second chance.
What is going on today, right now, is a vote on POSTPONING this fiasco in the making.
Let Obamacare go forward with a few adjustments because this horror show will continue. Delaware announced to day they FINALLY sold a policy. It LITERALLY caused a celebration. That’s not the fight for today. That’s a fight when there is a republican president, and both houses.
We are going to have one hell of a fight before the next deadline. This nation is divided thoroughly if not polarized as debt interest goes past $220 billion and Obamacare adds VASTLY MORE than anyone imagined.
No one on the republican side can let ANY of the democrats get away with any of the war rhetoric they have been spewing.
Extortionist, Kidnappers, suicide belt wearers and kidnapper claims, especially when modeled by Obama must be met with Bolshevik propaganda, KGB/NKVD, Stalinesque midnight visit claims in return.
EVERY SINGLE TIME. The aim should be to give pause. But if it does not, then all should be aware why the response is what it is.
Democrats should not even be warned.
Nothing was accomplished this week except the perception that the president and dems have won something.
Until this comes up again in 60 days.
Don’t believe me?
