    Ted Cruz hits a foul ball and starts trotting the bases.

    what's beautiful about Ted is he thinks shit like this will help him with voters on the fence.

    The victim of super Christian super guy super dad chauffeur Brett Kavanaugh asks for another day to decide if she's going to testify. Trumpists will now paint this as proof that she lacks conviction. If she decides she'll show up, they'll portray her as a drama queen. Game over.

    For those of you edging toward the delusion that Trump voters will be "shamed" by whatever comes their way, I present the Vol Deplorables take:

    They love him more now than they did on Nov. 8, 2016. They really do.

    To be fair, Beto's remark seems like a shot, too. At least in reading it here.

    Interesting. I will say, several of my Facebook friends who were over the top on Trump -- mostly because of the economy and JOBS, JOBS, JOBS -- have basically stopped posting about him. I think they're even a little embarrassed now about him. I do think there are a lot of conservatives who are embarrassed about what their party has become under his thumb.

    Ted was just getting warmed up. Up there with Ford freeing Poland.

    Agreed. Could be interpreted as criticism of Cruz’ dedication to family.

    The way it is summarized here does make it seem that way, but I listened live and he came across as sincere in that moment. He was praising Cruz's sense of service.

    Cruz' immediate pivot into making his own response a backhanded comment just seemed to be classic Cruz: a smarmy a**hole.
