He's not on par politically with these clowns. He might actually be the least insane person on that stage, which is a negative in the GOP. Ted Cruz is giving everyone a run for the money on the "who can say the most insane shit ever" gambit.
I think Ted Cruz is the scariest of the bunch. I don't even remember what he said, but when he was saying it - some form of God psycho-babble and returning this country "back on course" -- it was chilling. He'd like nothing more than to turn the US into a Christian theocracy.
From a few years back:
Quote:On the eve of our government shutdown, I wanted to do some research into the theological roots of Senator Ted Cruz, the standard-bearer of the Tea Party Republicans behind the shutdown. I'm interested in understanding what account of Christianity creates the "no compromise" crusade that the Tea Party has become known for. It turns out that Ted's father, Rafael Cruz, is a pastor with Texas charismatic ministry Purifying Fire International who has been campaigning against Obamacare the last several months. He has a distinct theological vision for what America is supposed to look like: Christian dominionism.

What a rogues gallery the primary debate was! At the "kid's table debate", Santorum was probably the wackiest in an annoying little brother sort of way. Whiny even. He believes in the future cuz he's got 9 kids! How could you have 9 kids and not think things are going to be GREAT? Glad to know his dick is functioning properly. Very important in a President.
