Cruz, to me, is a little like Gingrich. If you listen to Newt, he made perfect sense. But the press hated him so much, the low information folks never heard him. I fear this is what is happening to Cruz.

Bad analogy.

Gingrich hurt himself with his cheating on his wife and his dalliances with the Left's issues.

Better comparison/analogy would be to Reagan. Fidelity to conservative policies/principles and the Press hated him and did all they could to destroy him, and yet, because he was a fearless fighter and kept pressing his case and communicating conservative principles, he overcome.

Cruz will do the same.

Good point on Reagan.

I’m talking about Gingrich years ago, right after the Republican Revolution. I think the book deal nonsense killed him first.
