You did not answer my question. If Cruz is so much a conservative (and I am not contradicting that assertion) then where is his support? His polling numbers are abysmal b/c he is a BORING policy wonk. Americans are fed up with that sort of persona. Perhaps many see him as just another “insider” despite his conservative credentials. If nothing else, this election is shaping up to be a revolt against the insiders. Of, course, the only poll that matters is the one held on election day.
With Trump, you get a Threefer. A vote Against the democrat nominee, a vote Against the MSM and a vote Against Obama! Eight years of frustration, aggravation, disappointment and built up MAD and you can finally Vote Back!
