Trump has a better chance to win the general than Cruz.
No doubt about that, but it’s still a long shot.
The thing is that I don’t think many people inthe conservative army have much clarity. Hillary will be heavily favored to win in 2016. She will probably beat any Republican, some worse than others. I think Cruz in particular would become her hapless human pinata.
In fact, I think Bernie would beat him like a drum. He has several significant defects in his presentation that make him a bit of a pill for Republican voters to support, let alone Independents and a few wayward democrats.
I think Trump is the best bet to turn some democrat voters into GOP voters. the 1988, 1992, 1996, 2000, 2004, 2008, and 2012 playbooks are severely defective. Recycling them once again for 2016 (and 2020 for that matter) won’t work.
But what do I know? I work with wall to wall liberals and they smirk and laugh at the prospect of a Cruz candidacy, while Trump just gets them angry. They think Cruz is a pushover who won’t sell. They think Trump is a nuisance who is tough enough for some hits to get through. But then again, what do they know?
