I have been an active conservative for 54 years and Cruz is the first one to actually creep me out. His words are fine but there is something very ego-driven about his presentation and if I am not connecting and am a loyal citizen who never misses an election, I can't imagine who will turn out for him. He is such a distraction from finding someone who is both conservative and a winner. I am very tired of primary voters who shape a ticket and then are no-show's if their fave isn't on the ballot. Well, Jesus isn't on the ballot this time. Who's your second choice? Only 24% of evangelicals even show up on election day.
The only thing Cruz brings to the table is that he speaks Spanish and is an excellent off-the-script orator. His persona is another story.
