My comments were about leadership. Cruz doesn’t have it. If he did, his list of Senate accomplishments would consist of more than, ‘Tried but failed.’

Were he a leader, voters would be flocking to him. He wouldn’t need to resort to voter shaming, passing along false info, lying ads, or other Jeff Roe specialties. He would simply emerge from the pack as the leader.

This happens to be true. Leadership is a quality people recognize and gravitate toward. It stands out. It’s compelling. It makes history.

Tell me honestly, what true leader can you cite who, out of a body of ninety-nine colleagues, couldn’t even get *one* to second his motion? Not even ONE.

I realize that many Cruz supporters believe something magical will happen if Ted makes it to the general. Someone will sprinkle pixie dust, and Cruz will transform into the kind of leader voters line up to support. That’s called Magical Thinking. It never ends well for those who resort to it.

I didn't address your comments on leadership because it's fruitless to show you otherwise what has been presented time and again on these threads or you wouldn't have made those statements. Cruz leadership ability is a non-issue for those who know otherwise.

And you might consider being mindful to the fact people do not always “flock to leaders” as stated. Especially in an election, unless they're easily manipulated by emotionalism and ‘formulating’ just what your target audience wants to hear.....your guy is a master at this with 40 years experience obtaining and retaining his TV audiences. Cult leaders and dictators often use the same tactics because it works to “move the masses”.

I do not join up when I see those tactics being played, in fact because I know them I can identify them and how they're being used. Trump showed this the very day he announced via his exiting an elevator and descending on a escalator in his Trump Towers Lobby. (Which was pretty tacky btw), but it also showed Trump intended to "control" his environment...a must for a Narcissist. And also using his family members as his campaign team kept it under his control. I don't look for anything magical to happen in this election, but no doubt there will be some surprises along the way, and as much those announced as surprises will fail as Trumps did in Wisc. It's the nature of the game...Checkmate and all.
