“Stand With Tom Cruise”

It’s not clearly stated which Republican Senator this Bloomberg columnist interviewed but, according to the unnamed senator, his constituents were both not pleased by his actions during the GOP Government Shutdown and a little confused about who and what he should have supported.

Some conservative groups, he says, also took a novel approach in demanding that elected officials share not only their policy goals but also their tactics, and treating disagreement over tactics as a betrayal of principle. Their efforts sometimes produced amusing results. The senator’s office got phone calls urging him to vote against “keister” and “cluster” rather than cloture, for instance, and to “stand with Tom Cruise,” presumably meaning Senator Ted Cruz.
