Title: Loves me some Ted Cruz
Post by: Bad Dog on February 16, 2013, 12:50:28 AM
Article in the NY Times;

"In just two months, Mr. Cruz, 42, has made his presence felt in an institution where new arrivals are usually not heard from for months, if not years. Besides suggesting that Mr. Hagel might have received compensation from foreign enemies, he has tangled with the mayor of Chicago, challenged the Senate’s third-ranking Democrat on national television, voted against virtually everything before him — including the confirmation of John Kerry as secretary of state — and raised the hackles of colleagues from both parties."

He is rattling cages & getting press.  Unfortunately I expect the "establishment" (both sides) will try to smack him down.
