Ted has a pretty narrow appeal - mostly on the staunchly conservative, Christian, Anglo, right. There's no buzz for him in any other quarters of the voting public.

It isn't Cruz's appeal that I expect would win him the election. It's the fact that Hillary is such a horrible witch, and has such an awful background, that once all her scandals start coming out, people will remember how much they hate her.

That's if she doesn't stroke out from apoplexy as she is being presented with her nasty past.

Right on! That's why I believe that pretty much every GOP candidate can beat her except for Bush (as the last names would level the playing field).

“It isn’t Cruz’s appeal that I expect would win him the election. It’s the fact that Hillary is such a horrible witch”

Without broad demographic appeal, no Republican nominee can overcome the Democrat’s built-in electoral advantage. Ted simply doesn’t have it, and would lose to even Hillary The Wicked Witch.

Among other reasons, it’s why Romney lost to the worst president in U.S. history.
