I am just wondering if Cruz would do so well why isn’t he drawing bigger crowds? A concern I have is Cruz’s relatively poor showing in the South. In the general election the GOP cannot win without the South. Also, why hasn’t there been a decision regarding Cruz’s nbc status?

Cruz was convinced folks in the South would buy into the idea he was a Christian and Trump wasn’t.

Didn’t work.

Your concerns about the South are reasoned, but against Hillary I think he would prevail.

I don’t see him doing much better than Romney in the big electoral states.

Romney spotted the Democrats 180/270 electoral votes in big states.

Cruz might no do that poorly in them, but I still see a big challenge there.

Trump would take most of them.

As for the Cruznadian paradox, I tease about it, but I don’t have a strong belief either way.

I do believe it is a legitimate question.
