I think the Cruz people are more concerned about the Rules and Platform committees and having a strong say in what comes out of those. Don’t forget also that only the POTUS candidate is bound on that first ballot. The VP candidate is not — meaning if, for example, in excess of 1237 delegates were Cruz partisans, they would have final veto power on any VP nominee put forward.

As a Cruzer who is all in for Trump as the nominee, I can live with having constitutional conservatives putting together the platform and keeping the GOPe out of the driver's seat anywhere.

Cruz has never been about constitutional conservatism. If he was he would not have been lounging poolside in Mexico last week while the Senate GOP teamed up with Obama to turn our suburban neighborhoods into section 8 dumpholes.
