Ted Cruz on Mark Levin 08/30/2012

fall right that we have on the phone the next senator from

the state of Texas Ted Cruz I don't Ted Bartman credibility fantastic my haven't talked to you since you were won

that primary that was some damn vote wasn't you use want to victory there I it was truly extraordinary I mean it was just a breathtaking

result and I think it was a real testament on to the conservative grassroots %HESITATION who rose up against them on

the other side %HESITATION but demonstrated ultimately that a little actions are about the people and and %HESITATION it

was really a testament to what the grassroots can do and what we stand together in America you know you gave a great speech the networks try to cut him out for the most part but some

of us still caught it and %HESITATION it was a terrific speech well and I've heard a lot of good speeches particularly last night I thought for rise

down and visited with her and I think she's she's finally are you know a a rising star in it and I strongly requires

some Paul Ryan gave a tremendous speech on how do you think Ronald do tonight you know I am I am very optimistic I'm expecting a a

that has helped really keep this presidential campaign focus where it needs to be focused which is on the fiscal and economic issues I think we

know I agree with you and yet I read not a lot but a little bit of criticism saying you know let's not get in the weeds I

think the tea party came to be in part because of the weeds because of these massive deficits and debt and

that beginning with the end of the prior administration leading into this administration this isn't the weeds this is our survival right

principles individual liberty fiscal responsibility free market that United that bring us together you know I've

done a number of media interviews with some of the mainstream media sabotage pretty party hearty these crazy extremists and

I happen to think you know what is extreme about not wanting to bankrupt our country I you know it's only extreme in this little bubble of the Washington beltway in the rest of America I

you know ordinary men and women living within your means if you're just basic common sense and that's what's so desperately missing in Washington and I think the

focus on common fans living within our means getting the government under control is uniting Americans and I think the Democrats only respond if

you try to hide from the issues that divide Americans that's why they're being about you know using such incendiary

rhetoric they're they're they're trying so hard to separate it into little groups and scare everybody because

they do not want to talk about issues they don't want to talk about Obama's terrible economic record have

you been not approach the altar of you spend anytime with Mitch McConnell the Republican leadership talking about things %HESITATION

accepted very little I mean I I I had about a very brief call with Mitch McConnell where he was very gracious and and and that

he looked forward %HESITATION to working together in and I certainly look forward to working with everyone in the Senate and and hopefully will see everyone

in the and it step up add to the the significant challenges we have to look for each now John Cornyn of
