Ted Cruz Makes Nice

“After battling with Senate Republicans for much of 2013, prompting tense confrontations and occasional shouting matches, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) is starting to achieve what once seemed unthinkable: He’s getting along reasonably well with most of his GOP colleagues,” Politico reports.

“In an olive branch to his colleagues, Cruz privately assured them he wouldn’t raise money for a conservative group attacking GOP senators. And he even allowed the Senate to leave early for its Martin Luther King Jr. Day recess by dropping demands for what would have been a futile attempt to gut Obamacare.”
