http://www.burntorangereport.com/diary/13132/ted-cruz-is-the-michele-bachmann-of-the-senateSince the day of his inauguration, Ted Cruz has been gaining a foul national reputation for each of those qualities. He has voted against everything the Senate has voted for, leading him to his abysmal 1-13 voting record (including votes against confirmed John Kerry for Secretary of State and against the Violence Against Women Act). Cruz is fighting against the bipartisan immigration deal, brought a pistol grip to the floor of the Senate to make a ridiculous point, and claimed that the gun show loophole doesn't exist.
Ted Cruz does not represent Texas interests. He is bad for a Texas that is turning blue and is quickly becoming the most reviled senator in Congress. Even his own party has had enough of him.

gagme... "Cruz's wife is currently head of the Southwest Region in the Investment Management Division of Goldman, Sachs & Co"
It's pretty pathetic.

Fortunately, I don't think this fucknut would ever have a prayer of winning a GE, let alone even his party's nomination. I think the country has had enough of his brand of pyscho.
