“Cruz is nothing more than a bad footnote in this election.”

I totally agree. Cruz did his best to stay relevant in the GOP with his “Sea to Shining Sea” speech but it won’t be good enough. I hate to say this, but Ted was not the most likable candidate in the bunch. In his speech, he acted like the party will have to deal with his “wing” going forward.

Nothing could be further from the truth. There are already GOP politicians crafting their platform to take the best from Trump and the best from Cruz, and create a hybrid candidate for the future. Ted can’t change; he would lose his base; and he can’t grow his base because Trump stole the rest of the party.

It would not surprise me to see Ted lose his Senate seat.

If we end up getting candidates that are half Ted Cruz, then that would be a big victory for his candidacy.

Most GOP nominees lose one primary before winning the next. Reagan, Dole, McCain, Romney to name a few. GOPers are conservative in bad ways as well as good ways, and prefer a familiar name they’re comfortable with than someone new.

Ted Cruz will be the presumptive nominee as soon as he enters the next Republican primary.
