I don’t think that Trump was that big of a hollywood actor.....he’s no Brad Pitt for sure. I think they go to hear what he is going to do for the United States. Cruz is a policy wonk and nothing he does will change that. He needs to be in an office with a bunch of references and write policy papers. That is what he is good at. Every President who has won has had a personality. Cruz does not have a personal personality. Trump actually does. Cruz and Dole have the same personality and no I am not comparing issues just their temperament. Cruz would not win in today’s American Idol society. Romney also has Cruz’s temperament.
The difference is about 20-30 points in the polls.
