Yep... he certainly won over New York!
Cruz can’t win any Blue States in the Presidential election.
He’s not going to be the nominee.
I’m pretty sure Quebec and Alberta are provinces and not states.
Apparently it’s not just his supporters that are delusional.
Well, get used to the term “Trump democrats.”
“Ohio, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin and New Hampshire”
I like Cruz but NOT A CHANCE he would pickup any of these states.
Probably loose FL , AZ and VA too.
Ted “Me Too” Cruz...now all of a sudden Cruz can win blue states and Reagan Democrats? Trump has been talking about his ability to do so from the moment he entered. Does Ted have an original campaign strategy of his own, or does he just follow Big Brother Donnie around?
Come to think about it, that CR polka dot chart has very little blue in it.
Willard said the same thing during the 2008 POTUS campaign and he went 0 for 5. That includes the state of his birth where his father was a popular governor, Michigan, and the neighboring state from his home base where he also has a vacation home, NH.
I’d call those ‘purple’ states.
And YES, he can win them.
This such a patently ridiculous statement or prediction on it’s very face, I almost fell off my chair...rubbing my eyes.
One only needs to look at the internals of EACH and EVERY poll that has been taken of ever single state polled so far to conclude that Sen Cruz is not just wrong, but dead wrong. Don’t take my word for it....look at the internals yourself.
This is not a good look at either his political acumen or his sanity.

The anti-Cruz acrimony at this supposedly conservative web site is disturbing.
I'm just not sure if Ted knows it or not or if this was the intention from the beginning.
From a certain point of view, obama is a tailor-made, carefully calibrated stealth weapon.
Like Biden said, "...first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy." "I mean, that's a storybook, man".
The stealthy obama weapon, a modern Trojan horse variant, was fired at the most vulnerable and poorly guarded spot on the good ship Constitution: the NBC eligibility requirement for POTUS.
The targeting accuracy was remarkable and the obama was a direct, and welcomed(!), hit.
For this achievement, Sun Tsu would not suppress his smile of approval for this graduating class of his students.
By any battle assessment, the obama weapon was/is a phenomenal success with devastating results.
It damn near blew the eligibility door completely off the Constitution, which not ironically, now looks like the USS Stark did, listing to port and taking on water through that big hole just above the waterline.
Shot after shot had been fired at that same spot with a variety of similar weapons, but the obama version was the golden BB done in half black. Irresistible!
And, here we, the people, are once again sailing into battle, but now with only a handful of dedicated standing guard over the Constitution's now perhaps hopelessly vulnerable, still open wound.
In the meantime, several new versions of the stealthy obama weapon were re-calibrated specifically targeting these few remaining dedicated defenders.
While still BVR, the entire quiver of these newly recalibrated stealth weapons was fired full volley at those few proud defenders of self-evident truth.
As it is now, only two weapons remain in the air and both are still tracking, riding the beam to target.
One of those has faltered and become somewhat erratic, but their best model has performed very well, indeed.
It has been fully visible on all screens and various sensors for a long time, but only a few have acquired a lock.
Most defenders remain in the "OFF" position and both weapons are still inbound.
This is why I wanted Ted as the VP, and Donald as the President/Frontman.
Ted has almost no game against the media.
Remember, once we get into general election mode the media is going to be 100% knives out... Can Ted handle that? He can’t tweet out cute little videos when the entire media and democrat party are smashing him day in and day out.
Also Ted can’t go mocking blue states... That “New York values” comment lost him the North East.
Yes I am sure when the Dems tie you to Goldman Sachs and Citibank the Blue States will all go for you big time. Dream on Teddy.
His wife’s working for GS is the reason I decided to not support him. Now looks like Ted was just fine with her employment.
PFFFT!!
This is the point. The establishment line is that the only name recognition Cruz has is bad thanks to the MSM and theor GOP allies. Even so, the GOPe candidates don't poll much better. When voters take the time to learn more about Ted Cruz, they discover they like what they see.
