“I get it .. you don’t like Cruz .. so your excuse to lying about him “not getting any traction” is because he’s not the candidate you’re supporting.
How thoughtful of you to tell the same “snarky” stupid statement, “Cruz isn’t getting any traction”.
Maybe you should record that just in case you have to eat the words later.
LOL .. people.”

Nowhere did I say I didn’t like Cruz. In fact he’s my senator.
He got in the race first. He was at about 12% the week he declared. He’s at about 10% now. With the MOE he’s right where he started.
Wishful thinking isn’t going to make him poll any higher.
A lot of things can change in a year to be sure but so far Cruz hasn’t gotten any traction and you being POd about doesn’t change that.
There was a poll from Alabama taken last week that was posted upthread. Cruz is at #7.

It all depends on what you mean by not getting traction, and perspective.

If your talking about the likes like Rand Paul, Marco Rubio, Rick Perry, Carly, Scott Walker, Mike Huckabee , Chris Cristy ( a flight risk to bolt on over to the DNC ) then sure, no traction.

However ?

Ted Cruz is on the rise slowly, and has raised more money from small donors than anyone else in the field including Jeb Bush, that’s a good indicator of his all around support.

Putting your money where your mouth is speaks louder than just talk, people can say whatever, but actually supporting a canidate with your money says a totally different thing.

The amount of money Ted Cruz has raised so far guarantees that he makes it to the convention.

Since the debates his over all support and polls numbers has risen.

The losers ? Rand Paul, Rick Perry, Scott Walker, Chris Cristy, and soon Carly.
