“It’s a terribly important election, and I’m thrilled with it because it’s almost as big as our Republican victory in 1946. That’s the first one I was involved in, right out of college, and I ran the campaign of an unknown candidate and he won! It was very thrilling. I think the most important job of the Republican Senate is …

Via Breitbart: Cruz was a swift and effective leader in the backlash against the subpoenas, which should earn him quite a bit of goodwill from social conservatives in the 2016 presidential primaries, where he’s likely to be a contestant.
