Looks like Ted Cruz is starting to bottom out.

Bottom out is what a stock does before it starts to rise again.

I think the term you are looking for is:

Flatline

So much for his southern strategy. Once the campaigns move north and west, Cruz will finish in third in most races.

Yeah, all that momentum from winning Iowa sure was a game changer!

It seems like there is a curse for most Pubbie candidates who win the Iowa caucuses. They lose going forward toward the nomination.

Romney almost got it, but thankfully, Santorum passed him by something like 6 votes in the final count, and Romney did get the nomination -- when he blew in the general. :)

Cruz won Iowa and hasn't come close to anything since. Even if he does win Texas, he has no path to the nomination -- without some major 'macaca moment' for the front-runner.
