Will Any Republican Call Out Cruz’s Failed Planned Parenthood Strategy?

Two months ago I warned conservatives that “Cruz’s Planned Parenthood Strategy Will Backfire.” The math was obvious. Convincing a minority faction to withhold support for keeping the government open “wouldn’t force resistant Republicans and Democrats to take up the banner of defunding Planned Parenthood. It would only force congressional Republicans to rely on Democratic votes to keep the government open.” ... And here we are: a two-year budget deal that in the first year adds $66 billion in spending above the sequester cap, just a hair less of what Obama initially proposed in his February budget.
