Ted Cruz running ads showing Harris and Booker

with the implication of "not us?" I think that someone mentioned this on Matthews.

Except, isn't Cruz part Latino? Or does this not count? Same as when I say or do this it is different?

It's shared among Texans on FB, but they're all Beto supporters.

I can't picture it in a real ad.

Saying ... maybe Trump was right,

So you really want to take the chance of voting for someone who could be related to the man who killed a United States President?

...because the GOP hates them and slings mud on them all the time, I jump up and down and point out that they are talking about our most effective politicians -- and if we abandon our best and brightest, the GOP will simply appoint new bogeymen to slime.

This ad from Cruz signals that he and the rest of the GOP know damn well who our rising stars are and who is likely to run for President soon. Wear it as a badge of honor.
