Hold on now.
The media will write brutal narratives about any Republican nominated and especially Donald Trump.
And BTW you don't have to pretend the two brothers are committed Christians, they are. The third guy is an fracking/energy guy and the biggest donor of them all is an anti illegal alien invasion guy.
All noble cause, and this is how campaign donations and the first amendment are supposed to work.

Before I respond, I just want to say how much I respect Cruz supporters and Cruz himself.
Cruz gave an interview with Katy Couric I downloaded because his answers made me literally euphoric, they were so good. Another is his speech calling McConnell a liar; I have watched that in its entirety three times because it so brilliantly done, really a masterpiece. And the way he spontaneously handled those Code Pink protestors, defeating them with a combination of superior intellect and superior character, is something I have never witnessed in nay other situation.
But to address your point and to return to my original point: yes, the leftist media will run a narrative against everybody, no doubt. Whoever runs against Hillary, will be the target of the dreary but highly effective tactics which have worked only too well (you know what they are).
The question is, which candidate is best able to defeat the massive cultural advantage the left has in this regard.
Cruz no doubt would be far better than Romney or McCain, because Cruz sees perfectly what he will be facing, and those guys were clueless and spineless.
To defeat the media (I am convinced), it will be necessary to put Hillary on the defensive with a relentless, daily, vicious, primal campaign of personal destruction: she is a liar; she treats people like garbage; she has accomplished nothing, ever; she is an incompetent; she is a co-rapist and co-harasser; and she is a grifter and thief who has constructed a criminal enterprise in the Clinton Foundation.
I simply do not see Cruz being in a position to do this. Part of this is his wife’s connection to Goldman Sachs and CFR, and part is the fact that Cruz has accepted millions of dollars from several individuals.
Those contributors are probably wonderful people, I assume they are. But they compromise Cruz because every single human being has interest in life, and the left will brilliantly twist those interests into unanswerable attacks. An oil industry connection, for interest, will be twisted in a variety of ways to make it look like Cruz is a puppet for despoilers of the Earth, etc etc. You know exactly how they do it.
I hate it, but it is simply the type of nightmare reality conservatives have to acknowledge.
Sorry for the long post. I just want you to know I take your opinion seriously, even if I have a different opinion.
