Not really.
But You might have a general point to be made with an establishment old guard type republican.
Give me a principled, constitution-protecting, un-bought, freedom-loving, free-market- championing conservative. And this country would absolutely thrive.
But the Democrats would spend $600 on the shovel and then try and unionize the kids. Bring in OSHA and shut the whole thing down for bad working conditions and blame it on global warming. (This is just for fun, not meant to be a real political discussion. Please don't take it that way.)
$15 million from Texas billionaires
$10 million from Toby Neugebauer
$11 million from Robert Mercer
6 super pacs
Nobody has bought the shovel yet
I guess I see taking donations and being bought as different. If Cruz starts making his decisions based on donations and doing favors for people like that then yes that would be being bought.
But so far IMO Cruz's actions show him to be making decisions and taking stands based on principles and campaign promises. Not back room deals. Again that could change. But I hope not.
OSU is getting a little testy because THE University of Tennessee is beating them out on recruits they want. First JG snubbed them... then Callaway... then BBuchanan cancelled his OV after CBJ told him UT couldn't guarantee his spot if he visited OSU. Poor OSU-- can't be the SEC and can't beat them.
