He is a blowhard. Might as well just skip the election and give it to the DEMS

I agree. Carville is a total blowhard.

Re: Sen. Ted Cruz Makes It Official
As much as I disagree with James Carville, the guy was a genius getting Clinton elected.

There is a BIG problem! We don't need an INCREASE in foreign workers. We need AMERICANS GOING BACK TO WORK. Cruz doesn't actively support that. Instead he supports free trade and more immigration. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH of the failed disastrous "America Last" policies of the past 60 years. Cruz is a nice rhetorician but we need a return to real American values and priorities, not more neosocialist junk.

Cruz, the Bush advisor whose personal finances are embedded with Goldman Sachs.
No wonder I said I would never vote Republitard again. Have fun rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic.

Re: Sen. Ted Cruz Makes It Official
i don't do politics, but my sniffing about the web tells me that Cruz might be a kind of 'first offering,' so that the desired one might be accepted. Just rumors.

When you stop your fear mongering, you might want to see what he proposes.

May 14, 2013
Create block grants for states to promote STEM education in their public schools by raising H-1B fees.
These block grants will encourage educating our children in these high demand fields, opening more doors of opportunity to future generations. According to the Joint Economic Committee, between 2010 and 2020, demand for STEM graduates is expected to grow by 17 percent, while employment for those graduates will increase only 14 percent, partly because American graduates are not available or qualified to fill these jobs.
The block grant program would be funded by raising H-1B fees from $750 to $1,250 for businesses with fewer than 25 employees, and from $1,500 to $2,500 for those with 25 or more employees.

Sometimes he is, but you can get a feel of things listening to him. I have that same opinion toward Donna Brazile. Both of these individuals believe what they stand for in the Democratic Party. They aren't doing what they are doing for show. I can respect them for that. Others just do it for show.
And, on the Republican side, you can tell how things are going to go by listening to George Will. He is not on Ted Cruz's side, because he is Establishment. He just put out a piece against him, as did Karl Rove, the other big tent Establishment guy.
