4. He'd have won easily in 2000

when millennial fever was at its height and prosperity theology was getting the butts into the theater chairs in all the glitzy megachurches. Now the economy isn't working for 99% of us and Armageddon failed to appear on schedule and all the rah-rah Jebus jumpers are sleeping in on Sunday because their shitty paychecks won't allow them to pay all their bills, much less tithe to some pompadoured fraud who tells them everybody they don't like is going to hell.

Cruz will continue to rise to the level of his corruption, I agree with you about that. He'll parlay his term in the Senate into a corporate career that will afford him fabulous wealth on earth, which his daddy assures him he'll be able to take with him when he dies. Someone out there will always look out for Ted.
