I don't think we can expect much from him. What appalls me most is that he has been ELECTED to the office of US Senator.

That really says something about our electorate. Something unpleasant.

Even if I were to the right of Attila the Hun, which is where one finds the GOP nowadays, I'm not sure how that ad is supposed to convince me to vote for Ted Cruz. That's not presidential, that's more like a poor man's Robin Williams. A very poor man's.

...of him saying that he would audition for a part, any part, on the Simpsons, and then proceeding to do various voices, which both Stephanie and Chris LaVoie said all sounded the same (I wouldn't know, as I have never watched this show).

I think Cruz is his own biggest fan.

Add a camera and their eventual Democratic opponent can just replay the footage over and over and over.

..... I hope Hillary Clinton or Bernie Sanders uses this stuff in the election campaign if somehow Cruz gets the GOP nod. I feel like there's a secret ultra dark horse candidate out there that's as nuts as the clown car but normal enough projecting to lull some of the fence sitters. I sure hope not, but this election is going to be plenty interesting no matter what.

Too bad we don't got Olbermann, Steward, Colbert, DU's "Top 10 Dumbest Conservatives".

Cruz sucks at playing a person. He is also very cuckoo bananas. Satire Warning.

Ted Cruz Says Jesus Christ Should Be Official US Animal

WASHINGTON (The Nil Admirari): Republican presidential candidate Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) announced today he wanted Jesus Christ to be the official animal of the United States instead of the bald eagle. His position quickly split the Republican Party into two camps, and the topic has already started to overshadow other issues on the campaign trail like the economy, social policy, and foreign policy.

And...

Cruz ignored the ruckus and added, “If you want a stupid bird as the official animal of America I am not your candidate, and you hate Christians.”
