His vocal tone when he said that was priceless. Like straight out of a storybook movie narration.

He is known for reading childrens books on the Senate floor after all.

This is a pretty standard churchy/rightwing narrative. The whole world is out to get you and only I can save you.  It's actually a pretty good metaphor.

And melodramatically facepalming during Cruz's tale-spinning.

Republicans are entertaining.

Huh

What he's trying to say is someone took a knife edgy and dull and cut a six-inch valley in the middle of his skull, and that he and the GOP can take her higher.

He handled that brilliantly.

Notice how he didn't backtrack.

FYI, the mother praised Senator Cruz.

Considering she's the kind of person that would go to listen to a Ted Cruz speech, that's not surprising.

I'm disappointed, I had expected a much more awesome scene (Ted Cruz screaming at a three year old "YOUR WORLD IS ON FIRE").

Ted Cruz is the wormtongue of our senate.  He's a guy of above-average intelligence with an uncanny gift of debate and master of words.  It's no wonder people like him. Or that others can't stand him.

He'll probably do better in the Presidential race than people expect.

Which is exactly why I can't stand him. The second most disingenuous person in the GOP field.

The difference being Huckabee has about zero chance of winning the nom.
