yeah and that’s a problem with Cruz because how in the world is he going to win purple states in the general election when you are already excusing bad showings because the states aren’t Conservative enough?.. there are a load of states Obama won twice that need to switch to Cruz in a general election and it’s just not going to happen.. you just explained the problem with nominating Cruz very well in your post
Perhaps you will explain to me how Donald Trump is going to win in a general election when he has the highest negatives of any candidate in history?
