(Hell, somebody posts something here almost every day I didn't know about before.)

But spouting bullshit about something or someone you don't know anything about, when the answers are easily available to all of us on dozens of different fronts at the touch of a keyboard, is "willful ignorance."

As far as ER is concerned, Cruz is a conservative, backed by well-known conservatives, and he thinks Cruz is funny-looking. That's all he needs to know.

I know that Cruz is a top-line political lawyer who will add some much-needed intellectual ammunition to the Senate. I know that this primary contest was watched by a lot of people who are gauging the power of the grass roots conservative movement versus the Republican establishment, much the same way as the Wisconsin elections were watched as a gauge of union power versus rational government.

This article shows why this election was important, and what we've found out. It's one more piece of information to be added to many others concerning the current political environment.
