We have about 15 months until the election. Cruz is in a good place at the moment. If he were in the lead now, he would be the subject of all the heat. Let him peak at a good time, instead of right now.

I am content for him to “Cruz” for awhile and let the fact that Trump is there and his presence is going to make it tough for all the GOPe candidates that entered in order to throw the race to Jeb or Rubio run out of funding and have to drop out.

Our conservative side always shoots themselves in the foot. Emotion instead of strategy.

It would be big for Cruz if Trump could deny Walker a big win in IA. Same for Jeb in NH and Rubio in FL. There’s no chance Cruz will win Iowa and NH, IMO. He needs some help to keep the race wide open until he gets to more favorable turf.

Conservatives need to play the long game since we may be headed to a brokered convention. So I think it’s best to think of primary season as a game of survivor. Finding allies and trying to survive as long as possible is the way to win.
