Ted Cruz’s College Roommate from Hell
Some people never grow out of college. Meet Craig Mazin, currently America’s most famous roommate.
Mazin is an alumnus of Princeton University, class of 1992, and he has done well for himself. He’s a former Walt Disney executive and now a Hollywood screenwriter with writing credits on the third and fourth Scary Movie films, the second and third installments of The Hangover, and the upcoming The Huntsman: Winter’s War, starring Chris Hemsworth and Charlize Theron. But professional success apparently has not made up for what he suffered in that annus horribilis 1988, when cruel fate conspired with Princeton’s undergraduate-housing authority to make Mazin the roommate of a then-17-year-old Rafael Edward “Ted” Cruz.

Yes, NR is in a terminal tailspin. Once a showcase of original ideas and sheer intellectual horsepower, it’s now a bleak desert of puerile name-calling and routine ****-shovelling. Shoot, that dreck we can get just about anywhere.
How it will ever recover its former gravitas after beclowning itself over Trump v. Cruz is not at all clear.
Too bad. I already miss it.
This is what happens when “smart” people are gathered at an ivy and then learn that they aren’t as smart as they thought they were. They just can’t handle being one of many at the top of the heap when they grew up being superior to others. Professional success can’t paper over the insecurities of a jealous snot.
