Sparking applause from the crowd gathered at the National Review Institute’s summit, Mr. Cruz said he is confident that the nation is “on the verge of a rebirth of conservatism” and that the first step in that direction is for members of House GOP to cancel their subscription to the Old Gray Lady.

“The next two years of headlines from The New York Times: ‘The Democrats are right, abandoned conservative principles,” Mr. Cruz said.

Mr. Cruz said the GOP-controlled House over the next two years will serve as the “last bastion standing between us and oblivion” and said conservatives must stand together to stop President Obama and Senate Democrats from pushing through tighter gun laws, new spending and new regulations.

“They are feeling emboldened right now, and if conservatives stand together, we can stop that, and stopping bad things that will harm this country, and harm Americans, is a major victory for the next two years,” Mr. Cruz said.

Mr. Cruz said Republicans should not shy away from accepting a temporary government shutdown in the coming fights over the continuing budget resolution and the debt ceiling, saying it might be the only way to get Democrats to curtail government spending.

“President Obama has indicated sadly that he has no interest of being Bill Clinton, that he has no interest in tacking to the middle,” Mr. Cruz said. “He has no interests in compromising with anybody, and the only way we are going to restrain the out-of-control spending and debt that is threatening our future is to use those leverage points [the continuing resolution and debt-ceiling debates] to force real solutions.”

The tea party favorite surprised the Republican party of Texas when he knocked off Lt. Gov. David Dewhurt in the runoff for the U.S. Senate. The 41-year-old son of a Cuban-American immigrant, went on to defeat Texas state lawmaker Paul Sadler in the November election.
