I'm sure you're dying to memorize Ted Cruz's marathon not-actually-a-filibuster speech so I thought I'd make it easier on you. Here's a transcript.
You know how we were all wondering what the guy's motive was for driving that truck so aggressively off a cliff? Well, it looks pretty obvious now, doesn't it? It's all been about solidifying his position as the Tea Party's favorite Republican…and maybe not about anything else. So now the question is what's he going to do with all that popularity? Does he really think it'll get him into the White House? Or is the ultimate goal here a Palin-like desire to turn it into cash-money?
By the way: I was out Tuesday evening and I received a phone message from Joe Brancatelli, my pal whose airline columns I post here from time to time. In the message he left, Joe said Ted Cruz was reading Green Eggs and Ham aloud on the Senate floor. I swear to you: I thought it was a joke Joe came up with.
