Ted Cruz to campaign for Pat Roberts
Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Tex.) will campaign for Sen. Pat Roberts (R-Kan.) later this week, Roberts's campaign announced Monday. The tea party star becomes the latest well-known Republican to join the effort to rescue Roberts, who polls show is trailing independent candidate Greg Orman.
The Texas senator will help launch a Roberts campaign bus tour on Thursday. Sen. Tom Coburn (R-Okla.) will also join the effort.
"To stop the liberal Harry Reid-Barack Obama agenda, we must win the Senate Majority – and we can’t do that without Pat Roberts back in the Senate," Cruz said in a statement.
An NBC News/Marist poll released Sunday showed Roberts trailing Orman by 10 points. Orman has not said which party he would caucus with if the majority comes down to him.

What would reinforce the notion that Robertson is a DC based, out-of-touch, representative of an economic administration that has gone off the rails, than an endorsement from a Texas senator that put Green Eggs and Ham into the record? 
And shut down the government...
Prediction: Cruz will cost him at least 3 points.
