I agree somewhat...but it will actually help him in the Bible Belt. And by the time he moves on from there it will be completely forgotten.

This was solid analysis, somewhat unusual for NPR, although I suppose even NPR can’t ignore the giant elephant in the room
Fox likes to pretend Cruz doesn’t exist, pimping Rubio, Jeb, or secondarily Trump, but even they have had articles very similar to this.
The fact out of NH that is most impressive to me is Cruz basically spent zero money and minimal effort. To get that kind of return shows a lot about both his fiscal discipline (which I want in a President) and about how deep and committed Cruz’s support is.
