If I was Ted Cruz, I'd be pissed.

The Senate race in Texas is on a knife's edge at best (from Creepy Ted's perspective). It could be really close. Anything could tip the race.

The prospect of hosts of women in Texas being infuriated by confirming Kavanaugh should frighten the hell out of him. Trump and McConnell are prepared to sacrifice Cruz for the confirmation and he's expected to toe the line.

I'd be pissed.

1. Very tasty food for thought.

[Leith]

2. Ted Cruz Ought to Be Pissed That He's Ted Cruz, Too

But that's his lot in life - to be a hypocritical scumbag too vile to know just how vile he is.

[Takket]

3. Yeah waking up every morning and realizing you are him must SUCK

[TexasTowelie]

7. Then there is the daily affirmation in front of the bathroom mirror.

Looking at that face would make me want to .

[TomSlick]

4. The fact that Ted Cruz is Ted Cruz is his own fault.

This election, he really doesn't need this.

[RockRaven]

5. He got on his knees and bowed down to a guy who called his wife ugly and said his dad killed JFK

He doesn't have any self-respect to be bruised by losing. As long as he makes more money -- which he will -- post-Senate than in the Senate, he won't cry much about it.

[TomSlick]

6. Good point that.

But he must really want to be reelected if he was willing to kiss Trump's ample ass to pander to the Trumpsters. This week ain't helping. Kavanaugh's confirmation will make it worse.

14. If I were Heidi...

...Cruz, I’d be pissed that my husband was such a pandering ass-kisser.

8. Why columnist Bret Stephens doesn't like Ted Cruz:

Because he’s like a serpent covered in Vaseline. Because he treats the American people like two-bit suckers in 10-gallon hats. Because he sucks up to the guy who insulted his wife — by retweet, no less. Because of his phony piety and even phonier principles. Because I see him as the spiritual love child of the 1980s televangelist Jimmy Swaggart and Jack Nicholson’s character in “The Shining.” Because his ethics are purely situational. Because he makes Donald Trump look like a human being by comparison. Because “New York values.” Because his fellow politicians detest him, and that’s just among Republicans. Because he never got over being the smartest kid in eighth grade. Because he’s conniving enough to try to put one over you, but not perceptive enough to realize that you see right through him. Because he’s the type of man who would sell his family into slavery if that’s what it took to get elected. And that he would use said slavery as a sob story to get himself re-elected.

9. So Bret, you're not a fan?

Quite a way with words. Maybe he should get a job as a writer.

(Because my sarcasm is not always clear to others)

10. Not to worry

Beating up on women is always a vote getter in the red states

[TomSlick]

11. I don't know.....

I have an aunt in the Corpus area - a retired school teacher in her eighties. In a fight, I'd want her on my side.

[MaryMagdaline]

12. Good. We need her.

[bdtrppr6]

13. i'd be pissed if

i woke up everyday simply BEING ted cruz

[C Moon]

15. Anything could tip the race...like Russia.
