For me, he is the best choice, but people won't choose the candidate they don't know. The Trump circus will eclipse Cruz if Ted doesn't get more coverage.
I agree with you, but the press and establishment that has control of the political game board will not allow Cruz to break out.
He will be given limited time, questions and they will rehash old stuff after redressing what Cruz did with government closing and such as a bad thing.
The establishment is shared by the Democrats and the GOPe. They will do anything to avoid a President Cruz or Trump.
I would love Cruz but he isn’t known enough to get elected yet. I think Trump has a chance, I think Cruz could end up VP and after 4 years of Donald you could get 8 years of Cruz.
That is one possibility.
Another is you get a Trump nomination and a Carly VP to attempt a reach for the woman vote.
