I can explain it in a few words:
15 year old girl watching Ted Cruz on TV: “He’s creepy-looking.”
There you have it.
There you have it.
It isn't just 15-year old girls who think he's creepy-looking. There's something genuinely repulsive about the guy.
There isn’t a photogenic one in the bunch - on either side of the aisle.
He has the raw material: but he has to smile, open his eyes, and let his temples go grey.
Besides, he needs a Bogel for the Glotch.
A more relevant question is why someone with a huge lead in the primaries capturing almost half the Republican vote is the only candidate on that side trailing a horrible candidate like Hillary Clinton in the polls? I know that at a similar stage of the 2000 election Reagan trailed Carter by far bigger margins. But the thought of a Clinton presidency is so appalling that the discrepancy ought to be discussed.
