Ted Cruz uses jingle to take opening jibe at November opponent

Ted Cruz releases country song mocking liberal candidate

Ted Cruz releases country song mocking liberal candidate

The tweet came shortly after Rep. Beto O'Rourke, D-Texas, easily advanced to the November matchup.

However, the Republican senator also goes by a different name than his given name, Rafael Edward Cruz.

"Late Show" host Stephen Colbert on Thursday ripped Ted Cruz over his new political ad against Democratic challenger Beto O'Rourke-and offered his own jingle for the Republican congressman's 2018 Senate campaign.

The ad says O'Rourke "wants to take our guns" and calls him "liberal Robert", referring to his given first name, and says he "changed his name to Beto". You go by Ted.

"You know, look, your name is Rafael. You're both doing the same thing", he added. "It just stuck", he said in a brief phone interview Tuesday night.

Mkhitaryan bagged his second goal in successive matches with a low strike that crept under Karnezis in the 77th minute. Arsenal beat AC Milan 2-0 in the first leg of their last 16 clash and take on the Italians at home on Thursday.

"Some of it is just have a since of humor", Colbert repeated. O'Rourke has already made multiple trips to Lubbock and West Texas.

But O'Rourke has outraised Cruz in recent months and Democratic turnout for Tuesday's primaries was the highest its been since 2002.

Any Democrat hoping to win statewide in Texas and break a 24-year losing streak for the state party will have to draw lots of Latino voters to the polls.

"I just don't think that's what folks in Texas want us to focus on", he said.

O'Rourke said he has gone by "Beto" since he was born, CNN reported. "We can get into name-calling and talk about why the other person is such an very bad guy, or we can focus on the big things that we want to do for the future of our country".
