Being a United States Senator is a much more powerful position than a governor on the national stage. Governors can do upfront damage to one state, Senators can hurt all the states. Cruz shot right up to the top and is in no danger of being put out of office.

Expect him to run for POTUS before it's all over. Only saving grace is that Cruz and Christie wouldn't run together as a team, they'd both insist being top of the team. Still looking at the piss ant varmint turned termite Rand Paul for the GOP top spot.

Putin - Palin would make a better team. The GOP requires a father figure and Sarah's their Madonna:

"Who's Your Daddy?"
