Cruz is actually up 2 points from the same poll from mid December. Cruz is still going up.
Or he went up more than 2% and came down some. Looking at all the polls it looks that way. A month between polls is a long time. It only means he is up 2% over a month ago, not any indication of how he has fared since the eligibility issue came up in the last week.
