“A hardball consultant for a hardball candidate,” Glorioso said. “It’s a perfect fit.”

As long as Roe is accurate then he isn’t a “bad boy”.

wonder why the MSM calls cruz’s candidacy an “insurgent campaign” so much . . . they didn’t call obama an insurgent candidate in 2008, and it seems to me to be pretty much the same thing.

The original Bad Boy has long since gone home.

If I was Cruz, if you worked on the McCain or Romney campaign then you’re automatically disqualified.

Those guys need to find work elsewhere.

That’s right...fight fire with fire. Cruz has learned how the GOP-E and libs operate. Time to give them a dose of their own medicine.

He forgave and forgot and now will use this man to win the election. I’m cool with that.

How does he go from current status as head of the pack all the way down to “scumbag?”

Has to be driving Rove NUTS...it sounds like Cruz is gearing up to play HARDBALL against the Democrats, and against the Rove wing of the Republican Party.

This will be a LOT OF FUN to watch.

Unfortunate characterization of the one man who stands between you and socialism.

I had been a supporter of cruz, even though he was not eligible to be president. I felt the USA had 17 months to live and thought cruz could help save it. It now obviously appears that cruz is a scumbag for his support of obama’s TPP and also for supporting more immigration. I no longer support scumbag cruz and now support jindal, palin, walker.

Going forward, political analysts see Roe’s fingerprints on a Cruz campaign that has already jettisoned some of the old rules

— though so far with no whiff of negativity.

The above snippet is key. Combining Jeff Roe's dogged determination to win and out-of-the-box thinking with Ted Cruz's ethics and optimism will be a winning strategy.

It's heartening that Ted Cruz didn't hold a grudge against Jeff Roe considering he did some work for David Dewhurst, Cruz's primary election opponent for the U.S. Senate in 2012. I'm not saying it was all Roe's doing, but Dewhurst approved the dirtiest, most deceitful ad campaign many Texans had seen in a long time. Fortunately, voters disliked the negative ads, saw right through the lies, and Cruz's poll numbers actually increased the longer the ads ran.
