Cruz is finding it uncomfortable to try to say he’s a fellow “outsider” and non-establishment candidate like Trump when he’s built his entire career on his Ivy League education and elitist connections.

THe more the convention becomes “Dealing For Delegates” the more it falls right into Trumps wheelhouse.

Please Bob Cruz was,has been, and always has been the anti establishment cantidate long before Trump. Who was it taking lashings from McLame, Grahmnesty, Boner and the like?bWho was the single Senator attempting to force upon Congrees to pass a budget taking the heat from the media, his own party and completely ignorant dumb American population? Here I’ll make it easy for you, Cruz was that’s who. All the while Trump was expressing support of PP, financing liberal causes to take down the Tea Party and bashing republican immigration policies as “mean spirited”

The media is most correct in expecting the public to forget history. We do have a 10 second attention span

Cruz says the right thing and yet you can't even agree that, yes Cruz is right, there would be revolt.

Cruz was anti-establishment before anti-establishment was cool.

And let us not forget that Cruz's wife is a Goldman Sachs executive, the ultimate "insider" connection.

Good point, BigBob. ...The more the convention becomes “Dealing For Delegates” the more it falls right into Trumps wheelhouse.

Yes, Cruz is coming from a heavy Establishment, Golden Sacks, Princeton, Harvard, George Bush administration background.

Makes you wonder if Cruz was the GOPe's designated Tea Party rebel.  I hate to think that, but regardless, he would not be a fully independent agent if elected.

I also thought his attacks at the last debate were unbecoming of a principled conservative and fair fighter.  He wasn't nearly as bad as Rubio though.

The more the attacks get personal and petty, the more visible become the strings attached to their arms and shoulders.
