When was the last time the conservative’s choice managed to beat the establishment's choice? Without Trump in the race, everybody’s polling would be higher btw, including Jeb Bush's. Political reality is harsh. The Bush machine is massive, well funded, well connected and infused throughout the media. As much as I like Cruz, I'm not convinced his machine can beat the Bush machine and that is based on many disappointing historical precedents.

The last time was Reagan against another Bush. I think Bush is weak enough that it could happen this time. Cruz would be able to expand his support as the debates continue since he isn’t that well-known yet. Bush is so well-known that his support may be close to capped out.
