Al Franken once said “I like Ted Cruz more than anyone in Congress, and I hate Ted Cruz”. Am I missing something or is there anything to like about this guy?

He is highly intelligent. He is a phenomenal debater. I’ve heard a couple of his podcasts, the guy could have given Rush Limbaugh a run for his money.

On another note, he doesn’t look near as creepy now that he has a beard.

Cruz is the senatorial version of Mr. Haney; they even look alike. He will try anything to get elected, even embracing the person who attacked his wife.

Ted Cruz is my 2nd favorite politician, or favorite if President Trump is not considered a politician.

You flatter him far too much, he's not worth the energy hate saps from the hater while doing nothing to the hated, weasel that he may be.

Who says a politician must be likeable? On a good day 65% of Americans disapprove of politicians, so only 35% like them.

Anyone who would attach themselves to someone who denigrated his wife in public, before millions of people, has a very questionable set of values, in my opinion.

Ted Cruz is so popular that a PINATA has been made in his likeness.

Here's a photo Ted the Pinata

I've never met his wife, and I'm not sure what their relationship is.
Most husbands and wives probably don't like each other anyway.
