Even if he was inclined to bring them on board those perennial political consultants have probably been told “You’ll never work in this town again” if they sign on to Cruz’s campaign. The Bushtablishment hates and fears him, more so I think than Trump. Besides, my impression is Cruz won’t allow himself to waste money or be let consultants lead him by the nose. Walker and Cruz may be around the same age but there’s a vast difference between their life and political experience levels. Walker knows Wisconsin, but Cruz was involved in high level national politics for years before he went into the game as a candidate on the State level in Texas.

One of the things I’ve said about the Cruz team all along is that he’s built teams in every state with dedicated amateurs combined with professionals.

The amateurs are loyal, dedicated and trustworthy while the professionals can prevent amateur mistakes and they know the players in the states.

I don’t love former MI GOP chairman Saul Anuzis but he is a pro and knows what he’s doing. He’s currently in the Virgin Islands with Rafael Cruz.

OK...I’m not a big Walker fan, but I have to throw the BS Flag on that one...Walker, though not ready for prime time, did actually hold a job first as a county executive, then as a Governor of a state. He was subjected to immense national scrutiny and personal threats/attacks. He also actually accomplished some things and defeated public sector unions in a state that was purple at best. He also won three elections in four years during hotly contested elections with a great deal of outside money and influence against him. So, yes, Cruz is an awesome candidate and is probably building one hell of a ground game, but vast difference between their life and political experience levels??? Come on...give Walker his due and be realistic about Cruz.
