They really are scared of Trump!
P&ssies!
So many factors that make up winning. Number one being the condition of the electorate in the country. We see a socialist now days winning votes. Factors that cannot be determined is if someone will do a 3rd party run if they get upset.
All one can do is fight the good fight. At least this article shows who the NYslimes thinks is the one to fear the most (from their liberal perspective).
Go Cruz Go and congrats Trump fans on a solid win tonight.
They’re even MORE SCARED of TED CRUZ !
I asked Alan Abramowitz, a political scientist at Emory, just how conservative Cruz is. Abramowitz replied:
Cruz's positions are on the far right of the Republican Party today which would certainly place him far to the right of past conservative leaders like Reagan or Gingrich during his years as Speaker. In fact, his voting record is among the 2 or 3 most consistently conservative in the Senate. He is very conservative on every issue dimension: economic policy, social policy and national security/foreign policy. He is running on that record - emphasizing his purity compared with his rivals.
**************
I have studied the writings of our Founders, so much so that at times I find myself thinking like them.
Right now I am reading Ted Cruz's Princeton thesis and I have to say that Ted is not a modern politician, instead his thinking mirrors the likes of James Madison and James Wilson.
Ted's thinking is so removed from most of the people in Congress that they can not grasp what he is saying and thinking.
This aspect of Ted Cruz relates to the fact that we are so far away from what our Founders created that when someone comes along speaking like our Founders not many in Congress have the ability to understand what he is saying.
When they say he is ''Far Right'' what they are proving is how little they know about our Founding documents.

Cruz can’t win the general election.
They’re giving Cruz less than one in three odds of winning if nominated. I strongly disagree. Cruz has excellent odds if nominated - comparable to Trump and much better than Jeb.
He advocates losing strategies purely to further his own career at the expense of the party.
if Cruz were nominated, party leaders would âsit down and try to help Cruz run a better campaign, but he may not listen.â In contrast, âYou can coach Donald,â Black said. âIf he got nominated, heâd be scared to death. Thatâs the point he would call people in the party and say, âI just want to talk to you.â
Cruz came in a respectable 3rd. Kasich nlew his wad in New Hampshire. I don’t think he ever left to go campaign in another state.
Like the bobble heads were saying the other day a fifth place finish was a win for Cruz and I did not understand how it was a win and only first was a win. As I read more about Cruz's ground game in NH and beyond the picture becomes clearer.
So to me it is still a loss but third is good for the Cruz campaign.
