Jeff Roe is the problem then Cruz is a bad CEO of his own campaign. I do not think anything happens in that campaign without go ahead from Cruz. Cruz urgently needs a coach to improve likability.
Folks, it’s the message. The social conservatism preacher televangelist act Cruz is doing gives him a ceiling around 20-25% anywhere he goes. It’s a major turnout to “somewhat conservative” and “moderate” republicans. Look at the exit polls. The only ones that like Cruz are the “very conservative” republicans and there simply aren’t enough of them for Cruz to win in the south, north, midwest, west, anywhere really outside of a few niche caucus states like Iowa.
He’s toast. The country isn’t as conservative as Ted Cruz. It might pain you but the most conservative candidate that is electable is Donald Trump. He may be moderate on many issues but on the most important issue immigration he is head and shoulders above. Without borders, there is no country and nothing else matters.
