Cruz needs to double down, in the same fashion Trump did on a variety of his statements. He’s got all the press right now. Make his point and repeat it for about two weeks. There is no doubt that NYC is one of the most liberal places in this country. Pound on it. He should not miss this opportunity.

I think you’re correct. Right or wrong, this strategy seems calculated on Ted’s part. I think his people saw this week that they’re losing their grip on Iowa, and had to make a risky play based on some push-polling of the “New York Values” message. Not quite a Hail Mary on his part, as he’s in the game, but more like an onside kick when the game is tied and there are 6 minutes left in the 4th quarter.
Why? People who agree with Cruz about New York are already voting for him. Harping on this topic isn't going to help him any. Nor will being little Raphael-One-Note, the guy who can't stop talking about how much he hates the Empire State.
You’re extremely wrong, but I hope he follows your advice.
WHY?
Because Ted will fall to a jebbie Bush percentage, in those 2 weeks. *snicker*
You’re right of course. He should also work in California values, oh and Washington also. Pound on it. He might even win Iowa. /s

Exactly. Quayle should have simply said to Bentsen, “if you knew Jack Kennedy so well, you would know that he was for cutting taxes, not raising them.”
