The Republican establishment has become infected with a new viral epidemic of “Ted Cruz derangement syndrome” apparently brought on by being forced to actually work at the job of being a United States Senator.
“Patient Zero” in this epidemic may be New Hampshire Republican Senator Kelly Ayotte who complained bitterly before last weekend’s rare Saturday session to debate the Cruz – Lee constitutional point of order on the “CRomnibus” that it interfered with her plans to go home and watch a performance of the holiday classic the Nutcracker.
Ayotte, by the way, has an F score of 44% on Conservative Review’s Liberty Score, compared to Cruz’s score of 95% and Mike Lee’s score of 100%.
Yeah, but we got that sunscreen bill passed. FREEDOM!
By the way ‘Republicans,’ Ayotte’s Heritage Action score is a pathetic 51% and her Club for Growth score is sliding badly. In 2011 she had a 98. It was 86 in 2012 and 79 in 2013. Almost twenty points in just two years. So what’s the likely rating for 2014?
