The Cruz Strategy ?

[Red Oak]

Is he is running against both parties, the Rats and the Republican Mainstream ?

It may or may not work; but productive Americans have no great love for either of these two groups, IMO.

It will be a risky move outside of Texas and a few Red States; but remember how he had no chance against Dewdrop, the penultimate Republican Insider ?

The New Yorker takes a swing, they say conservative like it's a bad word.

The conventional wisdom is that Cruz hasn’t got a chance, and, as far as the Presidency goes, it’s probably accurate. To many Americans, he is the uppity loudmouth who, in the fall of 2013, less than a year into his first term as a senator, helped bring the federal government to a halt. Noted for railing against President Obama and denying the existence of climate change, he holds views that, according to an analysis by the Web site FiveThirtyEight, make him “more conservative than every recent G.O.P. nominee, every ’12 contender and every plausible ’16 candidate.”

On the other hand, try to find a Democrat who admits to being a liberal.

Dennis Miller tweets: If Ted Cruz wants to get his detractors on the Left off his back in one fell swoop, he should announce he's here illegally.
