Cruz failed the Constitutional test. When the pressure was on, he tried to be on both sides rather then stand for the Constitutional principles.
Spin as hard as you want, Cruz failed because he would rather play politics then defend the Constitution Right of voters.
We have seen time and time again Ted Cruz throw the Constitution under the bus if he think he can personally gain from doing so. Cruz is not a constitutional conservative. On the NBC issue, TPP, Corker, Patriot Act and now siding with anti-first amendment thugs in Chicago. I am amazed he’s still got a lot of conservative support. I would think bringing the Bush family, the very definition of the establishment, into his campaign would be a deal breaker.
