Just as an aside, do you think any Republican on the planet thought a year ago that this sentence would someday be coming out of his or her mouth?
“Ted Cruz is in this unique position, I believe, to unite the party, because you've got a group of the Republican electorate out there that have been in the caucuses and the primaries who've said, ‘Had it with Washington. I'm fed up. I want an outsider,’” [Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker] said in an interview with Bloomberg Politics' With All Due Respect set to air Friday evening.
That's right. Ted Cruz, the man widely known as despised by his fellow senators, the man who they joke about murdering on the Senate floor, the man who led the party into a fiasco of a federal shutdown in a plan that to this day he hasn’t been able to articulate a part two to and who regularly condemns his fellow Republicans for not being, well, Ted Cruz, the McCarthyite nut himself—he's the uniter in the race now.
I wonder how much liquor Scott Walker has to get into himself before he can say that with a straight face. I wonder if there's enough hard liquor in all of the Beltway for the rest of the Republican Party to jump on the Ted Cruz train.
