Update: (6:34 EST) 16 HOURS AND STILL GOING!

Ted Cruz is still going with the assistance of the Young Guard – Mike Lee, Marco Rubio, and Rand Paul among others. Harry Reid didn’t realize what he let loose.

Marco Rubio talking now on how this is hurting real people, how Sea World and Walgreens employees are losing work hours and the choice of health program.

“Big Government always helps  those who have access to power”, says Marco Rubio, noting some with access to power will get exemptions, but the rest of us, the small business owner is out of luck. “How many jobs will be lost? No one ever asks that question! We’re passing regulations that makes it even harder!”.

Update: (7:24 EST) Going on 17 HOURS

Cruz and team are now fourth on the all-time list. If they go to 3 pm, they will have the longest:

Via WaPo:
4. Sen. Robert La Follette (R-Wis.) (1908): 18:23
Cruz would need to speak until 9:05 a.m. to surpass La Follette.
3. Sen. Wayne Morse (I-Ore.) (1953): 22:26
Cruz would need to speak until 1:08 p.m. to surpass Morse.
2. D’Amato (1986): 23:30
Cruz would need to speak until 2:12: p.m. to surpass D’Amato.
1. Sen. Strom Thurmond (D-S.C.) (1957): 24:18
Cruz would need to speak until 2:59 p.m. to surpass Thurmond.

Update: (8:42 EST) Still going…

Update: (9:40 EST) Passes 19 hour mark.

Update: (10:50 EST) Make that 20 hours.

Update: (11:30 EST) I’m guessing Dingy will say no.

Update: (11:36 EST) As expected.

Update: (12:01 EST) An amazing feat any way you look at it. Thank you Ted Cruz!
