In the age of celebrity and super-pacs, Ted Cruz is out laboring, working a grass roots campaign. In an age of talk show appearances, sound bites and tweets, Ted Cruz is speaking to town halls face to face.

The poll watchers may be surprised to find that polling doesn't correspond to votes, especially polls with an agenda. The race is a marathon and we are a long way from the first vote being counted, early leads mean little, especially while so many candidates remain. The support for Cruz is not a passing fancy, but passionate because he is the champion of the people with a demonstrated history of conservative philosophy and the backbone to engage the fight.

You mean like the Town Halls Trump holds-—that draw 2000 people? The only difference between Trump’s “grass roots campaign” and Cruz’s is that Trump gets 10 times the people.

Plus the occasional media appearance.

Long way........

I guess that is open to one’s meaning. We are less than 4 months from the first primary month
with 133 bound delegates. In the fifth month there are over 1200 bound delegates
selected. So once this begins on Feb. 1, 2016 things will happen quickly.

Early poll watchers this early in the race are for poll dancers.... And yes anyone can use that for a tagline...
