Here it comes.
Thinking for a nano-second that maybe, just maybe, they have finally done in Donald Trump—a recent Iowa poll has Trump running second to Senator Ted Cruz—in a blink the Establishment’s guns swivel to attack… Cruz.
Trump is not only not dispatched. New polls since that Iowa Des Moines Register poll have Trump breaking into the forties, leaving everybody, including Ted Cruz, in the dust. But let’s focus here on Cruz, and the revealing attack on him that was penned by Max Boot over there in Commentary.
The title? Ted Cruz: The Anti-Reagan.
Boot begins thusly:
“Like many of his rivals for the Republican nomination, Ted Cruz has embraced the mantle of Ronald Reagan. He regularly cites the Gipper as an inspiration, and last week gave a foreign policy address at the Heritage Foundation that was laced with tributes to him: “As Reagan knew well, the best way to project America’s leadership is by protecting and promoting America’s strength and this principle should always guide our actions.†I didn’t know Ronald Reagan (neither did Cruz), but I do know a lot about him. And from what I know, it’s fair to say that Ted Cruz is no Ronald Reagan. In many ways, he is actually an anti-Reagan.â€
As the late president used to say? Well…
I actually did know Ronald Reagan. He was the boss for all of us who toiled in the Reagan White House, including me when I was a young White House political director. And as it happens, I also know Ted Cruz. And suffice it to say Ted Cruz is the real thing, a genuine Reaganite. - See more at: https://www.conservativereview.com/commentary/2015/12/yes-ted-cruz-is-a-reaganite#sthash.XVfFWXkZ.dpuf
