Sooooo, no? You can't dispute that?
“Cruz is a known, conservative quantity “
Most people had not even heard of him prior to 2010. He wasn’t even the leading candidate when he announced, and has never led the race at any point!
I’m sure his conservative sausage is the largest in the world. Fine, let’s give you guys that since that is frankly the only thing you care about is that he’s talked a whole lot.
Since his actual non-platitude record consists of next to nothing but a string of defeats, when it comes to this race I’m looking at what both say and how well either can fight the race.
So far? The only candidate that hits the right balance of what I’m looking for and what my expectations are is Trump.
I started out on the Cruz aide, but saw that he was a sitting duck with no fight, and that Trump was hitting all of the right issues with positions that Cruz never bothered to take himself.
So like a lot of us, we are rewarding the person that put in the effort, took the risks, and took the heat.
