Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) has been surging in the polls lately, leading more and more political strategists to predict (R-FL) for the Republican nomination. He was tied for first place with Trump in a poll of Republicans in Iowa last week. Cruz—well known for his over-the-top rhetoric—has made some outrageous statements on climate change in recent months. […]
