Hearing that Cruz will not quite endorse Trump in his speech tonight.

Good for him.

QuotePlans to run in 2020 regardless of who wins this November.

Fuck.

I'm embarrassed. I've been making the mistake of associating with you. It won't happen again. :)

What, you thought Cruz was done?  Dude, the guy shut down the government just to make a point.  He's going to be around for a very long time.

Cruz running is good news for Ide. He may win his bet.

Yeah Cruz is just getting started. Texas will return him to the Senate for life, Strom Thurmond style.

Cruz the Republican unifier.  :showoff:

Always too clever by half.

:hmm:

It will be interesting to see if he still has a political career.

Why wouldn't he?

I'm reading that Trump had an early view of Cruz's speech, and also that the "boos" were being coached from Trump floor organizers.

Really Trump - you want that to be the image from last night's convention?  You could have easily let Cruz have his speech without comment, then claim (as Gingrich did) that Cruz really meant you when he talked about "vote your conscience".  Instead you, yet again, go with division and anger.

Fascinating to watch though.

Trump only had to chuckle and let Cruz self-immolate on stage with a flourish a Buddhist monk would be hard-pressed to match.  ^_^

Actually it would surprise me if any coaching needed to take place.  Trumpsters absolutely *hate* Ted Cruz, and anything short of Ted groveling (which still may not have done the trick) would have elicited boos from them.

Oh fuck. The Trumpsters are going to make me support Ted Cruz in the next Senate race aren't they?

What's it take to get you to vote for a Republican these days? :P
