The Democrats that know who he is and what he has accomplished in his constitutional legal career, crap their pants when his name is mentioned, even to the point of going full birther, if a mention of the Presidency is made.
Then you have the Democrats that have no clue of his accomplishments, clearly making crap up, and parroting the gang signs.

I'm sure there are clueless Democrats that think Hillary has a chance against the legal character and accomplishments of this Constitutional American.
Yeah, Democrats are petrified of Ted Cruise . Hilary will win unless the republicans put out a top notch candidate this time, rather than Mr Compromise again. Mike Pence or Chris Christie could make a decent run of it. The younger Bush wouldn't win, but he wouldn't get creamed either.

His actions show he is an ******* who throws a tantrum when he can't have things go his way.

Only a Con would call a little pushback to the their fabrications being "driven to insanity." Must be because you guys are always standing on the very edge of insanity that everything looks like insanity to you.

I keep hearing liberals say that Ted Cruz would be a sure loser. Simple logic tells me that means that they are afraid of Ted Cruz, and don't want to have to face him in 2016.
Your logic is apparently way too "simple." You mistake contempt and disapproval for fear.

And it is not only Dems who have little interest in Ted Cruz.

It is quite amusing to see a Progressive, take the stance of telling a Conservative, what they need to do.
They always go for the Progressive Republican.

You know the Republicans have tried a Progressive the last 4 election cycles, thinking that the middle of the road where you get run over is where the party needed to be. Bush barely slid by and both elections and former Democrat McCain and I'm a Progressive Romney, got slaughtered.

People no longer show up at the polls, because it is the same side of the coin they are voting for.

But hey go ahead and try to push cruz to be president that would be nice CRUZ, Romney,Paul lets see what other sort of freak show the republicans will put on parade.
Oh, it's shaping up to be the biggest, baddest, freak show of the modern political era. I saw an article that showed the probable republican candidates for 2016 and there were 22 of them

To avoid hitting his "Peter Principle", Ted Cruz would be most suited as dog catcher in a 100% kill, animal shelter. He would be brutally efficient at his job.
Due to this special talent, republicans would like to see those same values translated to the position of Attorney General.

You will not think it is funny if the GOP is stupid enough to run him as their guy in 2016, assuring that whomever the Dem candidate is they will win.
