“He’s too polarizing.”
How?
The current “confidence” of the American public is something like the numbers that follow:
USSC - 23% confidence
Executive Branch - 11% confidence
Legislative Branch - 5% confidence
Ted Cruz has stood FOR the american citizenry and against the NSA, against the IRS and against Obamacare. As a result he was attacked by the liberal media and the GOP congressional leadership.
Compare who attacks him with who has lost the electorate, and you are looking at a true unifier of the American people. However, if you listen to the GOP-e and the MSM, then yes, he is certainly “polarizing” to their desire for tyranny.

People not having confidence in the government has nothing to do with whether or not Cruz is polarizing.
If he were the uniter you claim he is then he would already be making a bigger impact.
He plays to his base but there isn’t enough of his base to get him there.
Kind of like Fred Thompson in 08.
Every initiative pushed by Cruz has failed in congress by a wide margin. That is by definition a marginalized and polarizing candidate.
That does not mean what Cruz is attempting to do is anything bad. It is just the opposite. Everything Cruz tries to do is good and conservative.
The point is, if he can not be supported by republicans in congress, how can we expect him to win many centrist democrat votes like Reagan did? Those votes are essential for victory in general election.
