All I’m saying is that Mediocre Massachusetts Mitt is one of the most reviled RINO GOPe candidates on FR.
So if a guy with a Latino name in deep red Texas ran behind Mediocre Massachusetts Mitt in November 2012 (and I’m NOT talking total votes, I’m talking PERCENTAGE of the vote) I’m wondering about how he’ll do on a national basis in places like Ohio and Florida which are keys to victory.
We’ll know soon enough.
In 2012, Ted Cruz was still building name ID in Texas as a statewide candidate. He rise out of a field of nine candidates, including at least two that far eclipsed him in name ID: Lt. Gov Dewhurst and ESPN personality Craig James. And he won. If winning is your problem with Sen. Cruz, i can live with that.
And now?
Come down to Texas and ask people about our junior Senator.
If you think that name ID and vote during his breakout year translates to how voting will go in 2016, you’re in for a surprise.
And the Texas Primary is early this year: March 3rd. (As opposed to the June Primary in the 2012 election that you’re so fond of discussing).
