According to one commenter, Ted Cruz went from 1.2m to 923k followers on Twitter. That is a pretty substantial falloff of fans when you consider that you must intentionally click the "Following" button to un-Follow the person.

That means that nearly 1/4 of his followers, 277,000 or 23% to be precise, voluntarily abandoned him. That is quite a negative feedback and quite a story that one of his handlers will now need to explain to him ( wouldn't you love to be a fly on the wall for that ).

Expect an obvious walking back of his opportunism shortly if he hasn't done it already.

But but but...he's a man of "principle!"
