I didn't think I could dislike Ted Cruz any more than I do. But then I saw his picture from college.

Picture courtesy of Raw Story
You know I have read before that Cruz was an arrogant SOB in college, and this picture does much to support that.

The guy looks like he is playacting at being a cigar chomping political bigwig even before he finished school.

The Raw Story article claims that Cruz acted in college, which makes me wonder once again if his entire schtick is one big put on to get conservative support and to increase his time in the limelight.

Either that or I have to accept the fact that he is actually what he appears to be, an ignorant, arrogant, blowhard.

      Actually, he's very bright. Terry Gross interviewed Jeffrey Toobin on Fresh Air and the discussion centered on Ted Cruz. The problem is he is a craven self-serving opportunist with a narcissistic agenda. But dumb he ain't. Toobin said Cruz was definitely not a Palin because he, Cruz, actually has a fully formed political and religious philosophy. And can deftly articulate it.

      Actually, I would characterize Cruz as a Palin type, BUT with intelligence and a thick skin. The other Palin markers are there: phoniness, narcissistic personality disorder, complete self-interest, easy liar ...

    I read an article about him, and yes he is that repulsive. They interviewed people that knew him from Harvard. He thought he was so superior he wouldn't do a study group with anyone unless they had graduated from an Ivy league university.He use to walk around in front of the doors to the women's dorm in a paisley robe like he was alluring or some such shit. One of the people said you could pick Any name out of the phonebook and they would make a better President than Cruz. Hell his PSYHCO father has been telling him all along he is some sort of anointed one and ol Ted believes it.Sick fucks both of them.

    He has to be acting. Nobody could be that smarmy naturally without working at it. The whole clown car of Republican wanabees makes me think that they are competing to see who can be the most ridiculous,unbelievable and evil public characters. It's like they are trying everything to see how far they can go before the game is revealed.

    On looks alone, he was better with glasses, and forrty pounds lighter.

    It seems no one in the Senate likes him; in fact, he has few supporters in any of the places he's worked. His colossal ego seems to know no bounds. Sure, he's smart, but he's not smart enough to know how to work with others, or how to study his Bible to learn humility and compassion.

    It's hard to fathom his pandering today to a crazy right-winter in New Hampshire, who, among other things, thinks the President should be arrested. Is Cruz so deluded as to believe that stuff, or is he so cynical that he'll say and do anything to
    advance his colossal ego?

      What put things over the top for me was when he said that after 9/11, he started listening to only country music.

      PUH-LEEZE. How can people not see this pandering slimeball for the repulsive snake he is?

      Well, given the intellect and sense of most of the tea party members--my question has answered itself.

    I find it interesting that Cruz and Walker have very irregular faces...the two sides don't even come close to matching up. Walker is probably worse, as his left side is obviously higher than his right. Hate to tell them, but Gohmert has it right..no one looking like either one of those creeps will ever win a national election...for anything. THEN they open their mouths, and you wonder how they convinced anyone to vote for them in the first place.
    Then there's pretty boy Marco, who can't keep his family history straight, bully Christie, whose opponents would only have to show clips of him yelling at a female teacher who dared ask him a question to knock him out, Jindal, who is just all around slimy, Perry, who still can't name three agencies of the federal government he wants to head...I can't believe this is all the GOP has to offer...people who hate America, hate the government, and yet, spend their entire working lives living off taxpayers and blowing smoke. Either they are way smarter than they look, or we're just idiots....

    I don't see arrogance but arroganc doesn't read on camera. Arrogance is a trait you see if you know someone is that way or want to believe it. While I detest smoking I see nothing wrong with the pic. Over analyzing pictures shouldn't be a way to sabotage a potential candidate. Heaven knows there are lots of pictures of obamathst,if he were republican, you'd slam. The one where he's cuddly witha dude on a couch comes to mind.

      Arrogance sure as hell does come across in photos! We are not "sabotaging" Cruz, we are stating our opinions. My opinion of Ted Cruz is not affected by any photo- I detest the man and would vote another Bush or Satan, before casting a vote for Cruz. And, I hate the Bush clan, so that is saying something!

    Cruz won't have much time for Sarah Palin in the future. He's used her as much as he can, and now he wants to be the tea baggers favorite. I think she's in for a big surprise when her best friends, Cruz, Ernst, and other teapublicans continue to pursue their own agendas and their own fat cat money.

    Sarah has very little to offer any of them -- she doesn't give away more than a pittance in campaign contributions, and
    she has political sway with only the Very Cookie subset of the Tea Party. She holds no office, and her "channel" has been a bust. Occasional facebook and twitter rants don't add up to political muscle or gravitas.

      Sarah is doing nothing, just the same old politikin' from her fake self. Marina is the one that would do more, she's had to change her accounts and that takes time.

      Seriously, we all know how Bristol behaves when she is excited. She isn't into the wedding plans, if there is an event to come, it will be because others handled everything. Sarah and Bristol will do photo ops and pose but you won't see a genuine wedding planned.

      I expect it was his overt evangelical religiosity that turned off the critical thinkers at Harvard. And his photographic memory may help him appear very smart. Think of Dr. Spencer Reid on Criminal Minds. Yes, he can answer almost any question thrown at him, but has trouble with personal relationships and those who complement their knowledge with empathy and intuition. Cruz has neither of those attributes, by all appearances.

    Look at the list of contenders from the "right" side. There are always a large group. Trump, Cruz, Perry, Christie, Walker. Most have charges pending against them, yet they are treated like special people by all the TV and radio station people. The democratic voters want SMART, caring people representing them. Even Jindal claimed "We will never have the intelligent people on our side" Seems they like shafy, unethical candidates, they seem to fit their plans so much better. Look what they did to the ONLY contender who was reasonably normal - Huntsman. They got him off the national stage pronto. He was way too smart and ethical for the gop slimeballs.
