I like Ted but he’s getting ready to start hitting Trump on his immigration “tone” a sure loser. He’s not higher than 10% in the national polls and in most he is still 7%-8.5% so he has a long way to go to top Trump.
When today’s Reuter’s rolling poll is filtered by likely gop primary voters it is Trump 33% and Cruz 21%.
I would not have known except back to back posts on FR showed the two different sets of numbers, I had to investigate why.

“Ted...has a long way to go to top Trump”
The question is: as the lower-tier pubbies fall out the race, to which candidate are voters most likely to gravitate - Cruz or Trump?
Trump may end up having the same problem as HRC - high negatives. Cruz doesn’t appear to have that baggage...
