If he got the nomination, I am pretty sure a man with the intelligence of Ted Cruz wouldn’t sit back in a one on one scenario hoping that Hillary fades. Whether he wins or not, I think I would place my bets on Cruz knowing the right course for his campaign over pretty much ANY message board junkie.

I’m on a number of apolitical and leftist-dominated forums.
These people are NOT impressed with Cruz, and are more ready to take him on as they are with Trump.
Believe me, these people are more than happy to take on Cruz because they know that he will have none of Trump’s bravado, less cross-over appeal, and they see him as a pipsqueak with no governmental experience that can be held up against Hillary’s “vast career in service”.
And the thing that really chilled me was that coupled with the press protection, they will be able to paint her time in government from her time involved with Watergate, being first lady in Arkansas, and in DC, having been married to a still popular Bill Clinton, having been a senator, having run for president, having been involved with numerous political entities/groups, and having been Sec. of State as being a resume that no one can touch.
Yes, WE know that she’s been a snake and an opportunist, not to mention a failure in all of those positions, but she will also be running as the first women nominee for president. That affords her another wall of protection.
Can Cruz talk over that? I dont think so. It just isn’t his personality. He’s too insider baseball. Too formatted for a senate debate, and not for the brawl of the campaign trail.
He’s been careful up until not. Far too careful.
