Frank Bruni: “Anyone but Cruz: That’s the leitmotif of his life, stretching back to college at Princeton. His freshman roommate, Craig Mazin, told Patricia Murphy of The Daily Beast: ‘I would rather have anybody else be the president of the United States. Anyone. I would rather pick somebody from the phone book.'”
“It’s not easy to come across on-the-record quotes like that, and Mazin’s words suggest a disdain that transcends ideology. They bear heeding.”
