I don’t understand why Cruz is losing to Bush. Why isn’t he fighting? Bush is the definition of a soft target.

I really don’t know. The only thing I can put my finger on is I’ve heard people who don’t know him very well say he is “just another politician” and others say he sounds very sanctimonious when he speaks...like he’s talking at, or over people instead of to people. It’s a turn off for some. Plus for those who are LIV, they only here “Cruz bad” and Jeb is supposed to be the “better” of the brothers.

...........................................................

Bush has name recognition thanks to a father and brother.
Bush is the TOP PICK and really only pick of the Republican Elite and they had already planned for him to win by hook or crook before Trump even got into the game. The Republican establishment changed the rules in the Florida Primary so that WINNER TAKES ALL because they thought it was a shoo in for Bush as former two term governor.....and also backed up Bush with Rubio with an eye to the Hispanics. They will do anything to stop Trump, but so far Trump has out trumped all their high cards. So they are beginning to jump off the bridge or resort to dirty pool. The establishment is having a crise-cardiac over Trump because they cannot control him and that is the name of the game, C O N T R O L !
