I was one once. Were you, or just not yet? 😃 ---

This is how his daughter (not sure which one) reacted when he tried to kiss her during a campaign stop. [![](https://img.youtube.com/vi/gplpSfaouP8/maxresdefault.jpg "Ted Cruz kisses his daughter... it doesn't go well - BBC Newsnight") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gplpSfaouP8) ---

I wholeheartedly agree with what you said here Miller. Thank you. For those who don’t get it, this thread is not the place to call out Ted Cruz. The sole concern _in this thread_ should be about his daughter and her well being. At least that is my opinion. This thread probably doesn’t belong in this forum but I’m not in a position to make that call. ---

Moderating: I agree with the OP, when she invited us to lock this thread if appropriate. I think it’s appropriate. ---
