Want to end this quickly? Only refer to Cruz as Speaker of the House Ted Cruz. [View all]

Seriously, in every post, in every FB reply, in photo memes, in every tweet - Speaker of the House Ted Cruz.

That simple observation will set more GOP teeth on edge in DC than anything else.

Especially if we can get left voices like Ed and Rachel to follow suit.
