I like Cruz. I wish his numbers were better. What I do note, is that although he’s what most consider to be the best Conservative around, look at what his numbers are.
So when I say the GOPe will triangulate Cruz into oblivion, some folks think I’m crazy.
No, I’m just a realist and recognize we don’t have any hope short of Trump this time around. And we don’t have much time left.

Yes, almost the same as Perry at this time in the last election.
It is early, way early to claim another won’t gain more support.

Trump will beat Progs to a pulp.
====================================================
It's disappointing that Cruz's transparent "VP-pick-me" gambit keeps propagating that he "bonded" w/ Trump over the issue of illegal immigration."
.Trump and Cruz are miles apart. Cruz has championed an expansion of legal immigration, arguing it would help the economy. During the 2013 immigration debate, Cruz proposed an amendment to the “gang of eight” Senate bill that he boasted would “dramatically increase” the annual limit on H-1B skilled guest worker visas from—65,000 to 325,000—a five-fold expansion.
Cruz also voted for Obama's trade deal...a deal Trump plans to obliterate.
And while Trump has ignited America's visceral contempt for politiciansCruz is a Washington wonk. He has yet to highlight even one of his committees as a campaign credential.
A huge red flag is that Cruz. consistently depicting himself as "latino".....the first elected by Texas. Yet his family bgrnd indicates only his father is Spanish; his mother is not---she's Irish and Italian from each of her parents. Cruz has been living large, seeking the spotlight off his last name for ages. Could be a latino "us against them" battle-cry lurking behind all of his conservative blather.
