Megyn Kelly To Cruz: You Can't Just Be Someone 'Who Stops Things'

Fox News host Megyn Kelly on Tuesday night grilled Sen. Ted Cruz (R) on his record in the Senate now that he has officially launched his presidential campaign.

"On your time in the Senate — this is what some of your critics point to — they say, yes you led the fight on certain issues, but what have you actually accomplished?" Kelly asked Cruz on "The Kelly File."

"What we’ve accomplished over and over again, in many instances, is stopping bad things from happening," Cruz responded.

Cruz said that he helped stop gun control legislation from passing in the Senate following the Newtown shooting.

1. Megyn Kelly is a shrill, knuckledragging jackass. Taking Cruz to task is child's play and ...

... buys her no credibility.

6. She's a troll. Scuttlebutt, Brit HUME, sweet nothings...

Her niche within Wingnut World is to lob an occasional gotcha at some stray wingnut, which some gullible media types think makes her actually fair-und-balanced.

2. You can always tell how the GOP establishment feels about their own ponies by

how Foxnews treats them. I would say Cruz is not well liked by his own party. Hopefully there will be a civil war between the somewhat crazy RWingers and the completely insane RWingers.

3. If Rancid Ronnie had not shut down the mental

Intuitions the TeaHadists and Ted would all still be institutionalized

Republicans accuse democrats of supporting immigration to obtain Latino votes, well the GOP empited the mental instuitions ended up with the new GOP base

11. Rancid Ronnie, now that fits

as it shall be going forward.

4. Feeding Cruz to the Wolves to make Rand smell better

I still think Rand Paul is the one to worry about. Cruz went out of the gates first to be the most extreme case. Everyone else won't be "as bad".

I expect all media sources to tear into Cruz. When you see the usual divisions in who attacks whom and who they defend then we will know who has the backing.

7. This ^^^^

This is a question that should be asked of every Republican candidate for anything.

9. Megyn is right to call him out on it. This entire generation of 'pug congressional politicians have

the same issue because all they have done is to be obstructionists. That's one of Cruz' main weaknesses.
