Oddly, there were a couple of sentences toward the end of the Cruz speech that fooled me for a second, I thought he was winding up to really endorse:

[Ted Cruz]: "We deserve leaders who stand for principle. Unite us all behind shared values. Cast aside anger for love. That is the standard we should expect, from everybody."

At that instant I thought (and I think many in the convention hall did) WOW OK, he's gonna endorse.... after all, he talked of changing anger for love and he is supposed to be a devout Christian, right????
But right after that is when he went into the "vote your conscience" schtick and that's just when the crowd really went hostile and loud against him. I think he raised expectations to a fever pitch, and then went with the "vote your conscience" which of course had been the slogan of the Never Trumpers.

Cruz could not live up to his own professed standards and his own rhetoric.

He also had just talked of the Christians in Charleston forgiving a mass murdering racist, but somehow he couldn’t forgive some campaign rough and tumble?

The guy doesn’t have an honest bone in his body.

OT: Happy News: the new Trump/Pence campaign plane is looking awesomely ready for action!!!

Evidently it is a newly leased charter 737, a 2nd campaign jet just for Mike Pence, and not a re-painted Trump-jet (which is a 757 I believe):
