One has to question the actions of the Cruz campaign from the time of the private event attack on Trump in January until now. Cruz was doing just fine until the attack was reported and it became a war between he and Trump.
Cruz had ridden Trump’s wake successfully all fall. Cruz was setup to inherit many of Trump’s followers if he stumbled, other candidates followers as they dropped out, and would never had to fall in the GOPe orbit. He may not have won Iowa or New Hampshire but he would have done much better in the South, retained his following in the West, and would have been a logical place for many to go when Trump hit his rough spot.
Unfortunately his ego or ego of his campaign would not allow him to wait and not be out front. As a consequence of his actions then and worse his actions since Wisconsin, he not only has no shot at the nomination but his national political chances are over. He will be lucky to be reflected in Texas if faced by a credible candidate.
To what a promising candidate flame out is a sad sight.
Trump is a deductive thinker - he begins with the goal and works back from there - no wasted motion - only what contributes to the result.

Guys like Cruz are inductive thinkers. They are so obsessed with the ideological front end, the actual result is an afterthought.

Like I just told someone who said Trump “has the depth of a kiddie pool” on a different thread;
“Trump ALWAYS bulldozes those who underestimate him. You don’t get to this;
http://www.trump.com/real-estate-portfolio/
http://www.trump.com/hotel-collection/
http://www.trump.com/golf/
and signing 22k paychecks on the FRONT if you have “the depth of a kiddie pool”. Only someone with “the depth of a kiddie pool” would think that. Get real.”
