The Importance of Ted Cruz

 Jeffrey Lord; American Spectator   Time to rally for Ted.

"Because Cruz has “authored and joined numerous amicus briefs to the U.S. Supreme Court that defend religious liberty for all — whether it be a Christian wedding, cake artist, a football coach, or even a preschool." 


"As the election season draws to a close, one thing is increasingly clear: The Democrats are targeting Texas Republican Sen. Ted Cruz.

"And it’s time to rally for Ted.

"The race between Cruz and Democrat Colin Allred is, according to polls, close, with Cruz in the lead.

"But the real question here is: Why do the Democrats and Washington’s elites so despise Cruz? As his website makes plain, Cruz has been nothing if not devoted to serving his state. The site notes:

From the oil fields of West Texas, to the farm lands of the Panhandle, to the United States’ southern border and into space, Ted Cruz has been Texas’ leading fighter for over a decade. Since day one, creating jobs, defending freedom, and ensuring security have been Ted’s priorities. Ted has a proven record of standing up to any politician or special interest group to defend the Lone Star State. Delivering meaningful, bipartisan wins for Texas commerce and transportation, NASA, and more, Ted has worked for every Texan to keep Texas, Texas.

"But there’s more going on here than Cruz simply doing his job for Texas, and doing it well.

"The real problem that is driving Democrat Senate Leader Chuck Schumer crazy is that in addition to taking care of Texas, Ted Cruz is a seriously serious — and smart — conservative. And left-wing New Yorker Schumer and his allies cannot abide a seriously smart, decidedly principled, and more than capable conservative.
