“But suddenly it seems that Cruz is running what even Dan Pfeiffer, a former top aide to President Obama, concedes is “the best campaign on the other side.””

Well...yeah?

He sat back and let Trump get the big issues on the table, and thus taking the massive hits and attacks. Trump survived and is now at the top of the bord.

2) Then the GOPe sent in waves of losers to take Trump down, along with open help from the media (Fox, Gawker,Huffington Post, Blaze, MSNBC). Each and everyone of them have been effectively repulsed.

Again, Cruz has had to do nothing but politely agree with Trump’s positions without having to be the ones taking the positions first.

3) Now that Trump has essentially destroyed his competition, the Cruz base is pouring on the sap about how Cruz is the only brave one in the race and is the true conservative....blah blah blah.

His poll number went up, not because “he’s catching fire”, but because everyone else has flamed-out by attacking Trump and some defaulted to Cruz, because...well he’s there and registers above 4% in polls.

And now we get hourly PSAs from his supporters demanding that we all get in his camp because Cruz is the “real nominee” and he will “destroy” Hillary. Never mind the fact that he still is just running as far from the heat as possible in order to keep under the radar. We get big bravado more now due to the effective neutering of the GOPe by Trump. So I guess it’s cool to do a Trump impression while screaming how he is the ultra-conservative and making appeals to conformity and purity to all of the people that got behind Trump because he was the one that made the big moves when it counted early on.

It’s frankly distasteful. And the massive pats on the back for him is embarrassing.

When Trump gave his announcement speech, I wrote down each and every position he took on the issues. He sounded just like Cruz on every issue except he left out religious liberty and abolishing the IRS. To say that Cruz took his issues from Trump is just a$$ backwards. Trump just had the name recognition and celebrity to bring the attention to him, but even Trump says he and Cruz agree on the issues 100%.
