Cruz and Fiorina Making The Right Enemies And Proud Of It!

My comment posted under the article Carly Fiorina is much more than BOGOF on ConservativeHQ.com this morning: ted-cruz-carly-fiorina-indiana-campaign-b

Cruz and Fiorina have both shown over and over that they don’t much care for “conventional wisdom”, but prefer battle-hardened experience and the wisdom of the ages in their fight to do the right thing.

In spite of a huge amount of liberal influence surrounding her in California, as Carly found her political voice, it became clearer and more conservative. She understands history and economics, and has very good grounding in world affairs.

Cruz grew up revering the Constitution and conservative principles, surviving a journey to the center of the Rovian beast (the “W” campaign), where W’s conservatism was watered down, but Ted’s wasn’t.

Both have been willing to lead from the front and take arrows in the back in order to advance their causes.

If we want our enemies to fear and respect us, what better than having the ultra-liberal Alan Dershowitz express respect and admiration for the steadfastness of principle and well-grounded arguments of Cruz – the smartest student he ever had? Or even, Van Jones warning people that Fiorina’s mind is so sharp it should be registered as a weapon!

Is not the enmity of the “Orange Bo[eh]ner” and the chinless wonder of Kentucky a badge of honor to be (ahem) trump-eted far and wide? Are not the desperate emissions of David Pecker (Nat Enquirer) and the thuggish hints of Stoned Roger, signs of fear in TrumpWorld?

Do not cast aspersions upon Ted, or he will smite thee! Asked on Hannity Friday evening about Bo[eh]ner’s pronouncements (calling Cruz “lucifer”), Ted responded: “I give Boehner credit for imagery – the Speaker was letting out his inner Trump….”

Do we just want flashy deals and a flexible approach to Democrats, or do we want the best debaters of the 2016 season tag-teaming it to present a principled case for truly limited government?

I know which I’d choose – people, please choose wisely!
