Mr. Cruz does not come close to delivering either the crossover votes nor the enthusiasm factor.

We obviously move in different circles.

Then you live in a bubble and don't keep up with the news.

There is absolutely NO WAY that Ted can get even 1% of the black and Hispanic votes that Trump already has.

Many millennials find Ted "creepy" or worse...all over the country.

He's NOT getting the disaffected Dems either, nor the blue collar votes, or the women's votes.

If EVERYONE running, in the GOP race, right now, Cruz won't get all of those votes either.

What circle one frequents has nothing to do with a national election, and you should be well aware of that.

The country will be unlikely to take a hard right turn at this point in time. That is not a WAG, but a fact.

Mr. Trump has the appeal to bring our course back towards the center. Changing course in a slow and steady fashion is quite feasible. If our populace can be weaned from the hard left teat it has been attached to over the last 7 years, it would be a good start.

Mr. Cruz appeals to far too few people to win. That’s simply what is blatantly obvious from one of his supporters, myself.
