Even with his low-profile Cruz garners attention. I do believe he is going to be our nominee.

I've been watching the national polls right from the get-go. Here is the Real Clear Politics summary for July 18th. Cruz is in 8th place and Bush is leading with Trump in 2nd place.

And here is the current RCP summary showing Trump with a huge lead, Bush, Walker and Paul falling like rocks and our guy Ted Cruz moving from 8th to a very solid 4th.

Unless Rubio recovers or Fiorina actually catches on, which I believe is unlikely, we have a top four of Trump, Carson, Bush and Cruz. That's not bad. That's progress.

Yep IP...I really think Cruz is running a good campaign. With his low profile he still has us out here in la-la land.

Father Tom likes Ted Cruz, by the way, and he also really likes Ben Carson.

Will let you all know next week’s thread how the debate went, wish me luck because I am very, very nervous.

What is the margin of error on those poll numbers in your post? If the next debate was limited to people who are not in a situation where their actual support might be negative would be an easy way to determine who is in the debate.

According to the chart, there are 8 people with 5% or more support. Even that is too many, but at least it is less than 10.
