GWB was a big exception to the rule that, going back to Goldwater, GOP contenders never get the nomination on the first try. But he had his father’s contacts to rely on, to fundraise and strategize for a national campaign. And the Bush name is an illustrious one, even to the point that Jeb Bush is automatically a contender for the GOP nod despite the disastrous poll numbers GWB racked up as his presidency ended. Cruz is pretty much out there on his own.

He's been there before. It doesn't seem to bother him and he seems to relish the fight.
Like I said before, he's already proven he can win the fight when he is the underdog.
Don't count him out!
