McConnell Capitulates To Cruz On Immigration

How many times have we been told that Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, running for the GOP presidential nomination, is an ineffective "wacko bird,"in Arizona Sen. John McCain's insulting words?
Well, it now looks like he's ended up being very effective in getting the Senate to do something about illegal alien violent criminals.
The first piece of legislation the U.S. Senate will take up after its October recess will be a measure that includes Cruz-backed Kate's Law, imposing a mandatory five years in prison for deported aliens who re-enter America illegally.
It's named after Kate Steinle, slain on the San Francisco pier July 1 allegedly by Juan Francisco Lopez Sanchez, an illegal who had been deported five times.
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., who is on bad terms with Cruz, on Wednesday set in motion the process of having the bill bypass the Senate Judiciary Committee, where it was going to have trouble, and bring it straight to the Senate floor.
