Well a pretty high percentage of voters automatically vote Republican or Democrat. No one can afford to give up them votes and win. Cruz is very smart. He knows that.

I am still confused by this poster's post. Of all of the candidates, Ted Cruz is the one least likely to pander to the GOP-Elite or voters aligned purely with the GOP-E.

That poster wants Ted Cruz to go 3rd party. Not a good idea. Sounds like a surefire way to lose to me.

You didn’t get it cuz you misconstrued it, IMHO.

a SUGGESTION only because the r DC critters are nothing but baggage for the man. The SOB’s constantly screw their constituents by their various means (remember Mississippi!!!!)

Ted would be better for it if he left these unintelligent asses at the starting gate as he begins the race with only like-minded steeds. With the stabs taken in the back from the r-crew they are losing among true conservatives. Many have given up hope on them and we will NEVER trust them again. If the Senator would think about it, he would not wish to be in the same corral with them. Of course he needs the r votes...however, he does NOT need the elite dc critters. Who knows, by leaving the r-party with a number of tested conservative like-minded pubbies he just might have the ability to make the r-elites only a grain of sand in history as time goes on. That would be a just reward for these bastards
