He is a surprisingly weak campaigner. It’s no wonder he lost this year.
I was really surprised by his inert performance Monday. I realize he wasn’t really going to compete in this state, but I still thought he would put in more effort.
This propaganda hit piece rails against media propaganda! Pure garbage!
From my observation, he has a surprisingly weak mind.
He was supposed to be the smartest guy in any given room.
That idea hit the bug zapper early on.
I've seen Cruz do this on O'Reilly and Hannity. One reason why I dropped my support for him last year.
so a bad day for both Cruz & Trump... sheesh is Kasick going to have to wheelbarrow these guys across the line?
” While he might have refined his ability to accumulate delegates, the rationale for his presidential candidacy becomes murkier with each day that elapses. “
Priceless
And yet much of what the author wrote is factually true.
You may not like what he says abut your guy but his analysis of the media and Ted’s inability to connect with people are accurate

Yes, cognative dissonance is a disease amongst Cruz supporters. They dissemble and ignore reality because it bumps hard up against the rationale for Ted’s continuing candidacy.
Actually, most of the commentary in this hit piece was pure opinion...then, he moaned that the media was not taking it seriously...I saw the GMA appearance...Ted and Heidi were just fine...Stephy and his lesbian sidekick were clearly uncomfortable, likely due to their Leftist outlook and having to be polite to a true conservative...some of the side info and footage used by GMA was clearly intended to paint Cruz in a negative way...But, that’s how the MSM handles Republicans and Conservatives!

I was just thinking the same thing about Trump folks!
Who’s the more foolish, the fool or the fool who follows him? O.W. Kenobi
Cruz isn’t Reagan. People liked Reagan because the way he connected with them. Not all are policy wonks.
He just will not answer questions, or talk policy, solutions.
I thought he used to, when he refused to talk about his immigration/border policy during this campaign I was done with him.
He’s got the Radosh vote, if nothing else.
I watched the GMA appearance and your take is far different than mine
Ted came across creepy and snarky and I was in a room of folks who do not usually comment on what is going on on the television
FWIW, my own question-about what he would do to limit the stranglehold Facebook, Infosys and other lobbyists have over Congress, particularly their infatuation with H-1B Visas, was rejected.
In Dante's 'Inferno', Hell only has 9 levels of suffering, the Internet knows no bounds.
“Ted came across creepy and snarky... ‘

I would argue that you’d have the same negative impression with any Cruz TV appearance...GMA, Today, Jimmy Fallon, etc...
My view of Trump now is that every time I see him being interviewed, I think he comes across as a rich, arrogant a-hole and tyrannical blowhard...It’s all about Trump!
My 90 year-old Mother who lives in a nursing home and suffers from significant dementia was recently told that Donald Trump might be elected President. With a painful and confused look on her face, she said...”Trump? Oh, he’s a jerk!”...
So, there you go...Beauty (or not) is in the eye of the beholder!
