In an interview in the Washington Post and the Texas Tribune, Former Texas Gov. Rick Perry had some harsh words for Ted Cruz ((R-TX) when asked about Cruz as a potential 2016 candidate. Perry said:
It’s one of the selling points, if you will, to the American people as they decide who is going to follow Barack Obama. I think they’re going to make a rather radical shift away from a young, untested United States senator whose policies have really failed.
CNN’s Dana Bash repeated Perry’s comments to Cruz, who was a guest on the television program State of The Union on Sunday and she said, “Ouch! He’s calling you the Republican Barack Obama.”
Cruz replied:
Listen, I like Rick Perry. He was a good governor in the state of Texas. He’s a friend of mine. People occasionally throw rocks in politics, that’s his choice. I’m going say I think he did a good and effective job as governor of our state.
“Okay, taking the high road there,” said Bash.
Cruz said he is “very seriously” considering a run in the 2016 elections.
