Ted Cruz: The Tea Party darling that symbolizes everything that’s wrong with the movement. Democrats are gonna love him going into the mid-terms.

At least with Senator Kay Bailey Hutchinson, there was some leanings to bipartisanship at times. While definitely a conservative, she was rational in her beliefs.
Now Cruz is forcing John Cornyn, who is already pretty far to the right, way out there on the fringe with him. He cant afford to be the “lefty” senator from TX and face a tea party challenge.
