You know in your heart Cruz IS boiling mad and would not approve this. But the details and backstory won’t be available until Tuesday.

No, I don’t.

I wish I did, but he hasn’t said anything about it or fired anyone that I know of.

What I know in my heart is that I am boiling mad about this.

Cruz isn’t stupid, so maybe he is boiling mad over this, because it really looks like a stupid move.

I can’t imagine a person who rarely votes being motivated to go vote for the guy who sent me a mailer like that but, again, Cruz isn’t stupid. So that’s got me wondering if there’s a different motive for sending it out?

For example, would it be more or less likely to convince them to go out and vote at all, regardless who they liked. If they went to a Trump rally and liked what they heard, then got that mailer, would that motivate them to go vote for Trump, or would they just ball it up, toss it away, and say “Screw them,” lumping all politicians together.

After all, you’re talking about people who rarely take the time to vote and who, therefore, probably don’t pay much attention at this stage of the process. Remember, about half of Americans don’t even bother to vote in the general election for President.

I just can’t imagine any campaign thinking this is a good way to get voter support, so something else must be motivating the move. I just don’t know what that would be.
