 Ted Cruz is great but he's been unfortunately saddled with resembling a
grown-up Eddie Munster, which in this TV world where appearance matters as
much (if not more) than substance will leave him forever aspiring to higher

There was talk at one point of putting him on the Supreme Court. I like that idea. He could do a lot of good there.
