Cruz is far from done. He’s 44 years old. This election he made a lot of connections around the country and proved he has a great ground game. Even if he doesn’t get the nomination this year, we will need him big time to run against Hillary on her second term in 2020.
Reagan didn’t win his first run for president either.
Cruz can’t grow a personality and there is no desire to follow him.
He has non of the inspired crowds good candidates get.
He's done this go 'round, which was what I was referring to.
Unfortunately, he may resurrect his reptilian charlatan self for some future run, but he will never escape the nickname "Lyin' Ted" for the rest of his life. Because it's damn accurate.
