Cruz starting to answer back Trump’s trumpeting?

Cruz-Pisses-Liberals-copyThis may get interesting – the master of the media and celebrityhood vs the number one debater: Donald Trump and Ted Cruz.  Certainly, anyone that catches The Donald’s ire and has tried to fire back has dropped in the polls like the proverbial lead balloon (seeing that none of them have the Mythbuster’s lead balloon that actually floated).  Now that Ted has caught and surpassed him in Iowa (mostly, during the last month), the Trump cross-hairs were re-focused and the onslaught began.  Up to now, Ted’s been fairly lighthearted with his comebacks; this one get a wee bit deeper in the calling out of Cruz’s birth circumstances (born of an American mother in Calgary, Canada):

(CRUZ): I will say that it’s more than a little strange to see Donald relying on as authoritative a liberal, left-wing, judicial activist Harvard Law professor who is a huge Hillary supporter (Ed. note – Laurence Tribe). It starts to make you think, “Gosh, why are some of Hillary’s strongest supporters backing Trump?” You know, the last couple of elections the Democrats have gotten the nominee they wanted to run against in the general election. It seems the Hillary folks are very eager to support Donald Trump and the attacks that are being tossed my direction.

And the Democrats have picked up on this as well – so what does say about them (yeah, I know: opportunistic)?  Certainly the gloves are off at all of the tiers of the race on the Repub side.  I just laugh every time someone tries to admonish us about Reagan’s 11th Commandment when I watch this at the highest levels (compare and contrast) but we are told WE are the problem.  And this time, when Reince Prebus (Chair, RNC) won’t say he’s a naturalized citizen and that US Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell won’t push through what they did for McCain when he was accused of the same thing, one vividly sees the oft talked about hatred of Cruz by the Establishment Republicans.
