Trump outshines Cruz in terms of media savvy and appearance issues.

I think Cruz is the better Conservative.

Well said, and I believe exactly right.

The MSM is actively avoiding Mr. Cruz because they fear him. They realize he could very easily win it all. If Mr. Cruz can get through the primaries neither Hillary nor Bernie stands a chance against him.

The only hope the MSM sees of furthering their agenda is to foist someone on us from the Rep. side that is either: good old GOPe, business-as-usual, compromise on everything, fight on nothing... or push a candidate to the fore who has enough negatives (or can be made to appear to have negatives) that they can highlight those and maybe pull off a Dem win.

So the MSM pushes Trump, who has made enough controversial statements over the years that when the time is right, they can bring those out against him. Or they push Carson, who has said some things that cause conservatives to question his resolve and conservative credentials. Or they push GOPe at us...

But with Mr. Cruz... He's conservative enough, mainstream enough, apparently few if any negatives... Entirely, easily electable but very much not in keeping with their liberal agenda. So he terrifies them. Without any real mud to sling, their only option is silence. Studiously ignoring him and hoping he'll go away.

“Trump outshines Cruz in terms of media savvy and appearance issues.

That’s pretty much it in a nutshell.

“There is NOTHING more conservative than stopping a permanent democrat/marxist voting majority and doing whats best for the people and the country. By virtue of Mr.Trump’s position on illegal immigration he “Trumps” all others conservatism.”
