re: " Now, if he was an insider establishment guy as you claim, WHY THEN is he HATED by the establishment he is supposedly a part of?"

It's clear enough how it's possible: It's a mistake in your reasoning.

Cruz clerked for two Republican judges. He worked two different Washington jobs for GWB. He joined a D.C. law firm with clientele throughout the Washington area. Condoleezza Rice introduced him to Heidi. He'd be there still except that GWB's successor in Texas, Rick Perry, appointed him as Texas solicitor general. And then he was back to D.C. again as a Senator.

Quite a few Senators dislike him personally, but only because he went after Mitch McConnell and called him a liar. But that doesn't mean he doesn't have powerful connections with other factions inside the Beltway In fact, one article argues that Cruz couldn't have so many on the Hill personally disliking him if he were an outsider. They dislike him because they've come to know him really well over the years and haven't been impressed.

Cruz is an insider to Washington politics. But "outsider" sounds good to the voters, so he keeps playing the story up.

He has been in the Senate less than one full term.

What other federal Washington jobs has he held?

He was Solicitor General for the state of Texas and when Washington tried to ram through some legislation that affected the state, they asked him to file suit and try it at the Supreme Court. He won. NINE cases has he argued for the rights of the Constitution and won.

I do not know how that makes him a Washington Establishment INSIDER when he this is his first term as a Senator AND he is HATED by ALL the Republican establishment.

Now, if he was an insider establishment guy as you claim, WHY THEN is he HATED by the establishment he is supposedly a part of?

Zim, it makes no sense to me....
