Yes I know. He seems smarmy.

Like I said I’d vote for him if he were the nominee.

My problem with Senator Ted Cruz is that he does not follow this admonition from Christ:

[5] And when ye pray, you shall not be as the hypocrites, that love to stand and pray in the synagogues and corners of the streets, that they may be seen by men: Amen I say to you, they have received their reward. [6] But thou when thou shalt pray, enter into thy chamber, and having shut the door, pray to thy Father in secret: and thy Father who seeth in secret will repay thee. [7] And when you are praying, speak not much, as the heathens. For they think that in their much speaking they may be heard. [8] Be not you therefore like to them, for your Father knoweth what is needful for you, before you ask him. ... - Matthew, Ch 6 (Douay-Rheims Catholic Bible)

Rather, Cruz like to be seen praying in public, making a big show of it - and this one thing causes me more doubt about him than any other issue.
