Cruz has a Nike problem.
You know how many people swore that they would never again - at no point in the future, no matter how far along - do business with Nike?
I’d wager there are a lot of people who feel that way about Cruz after he used a platform given to him at Trump’s nominating convention to tell people to go vote for Hillary Clinton.
And that ain’t the only deal-breaker from that campaign. Naming Fiorina as his VP choice AFTER he had already lost the race was a literally insane move.
Hopefully the Texas GOP can get its act together to replace this guy in the next cycle.

Who knows what the issues will be or who’ll

He ran a bad campaign. Get over it. He is a solid conservative and is behind Trump’s agenda.
So when people vote to re-elect the governor this year they aren’t going to vote straight ticket, they are going to vote for Pinto the Beta?

I’d wager that you are wrong. Cruz did not tell people to vote for Hillary Clinton. He said “vote your conscience” - which I did by NOT voting for Hillary Clinton and holding my nose and voting for Trump. Trump has surprised me as he has many, many people. Texas is full of freedom loving individuals who are now strongly (as I am) supportive of Trump - who (like Cruz) were skeptical in the beginning. Cruz will get twice the support this time than he has ever gotten in a mid-term. Watch and see.
I'm sure he didn't tell people to go vote for Clinton, and reasonably sure that there aren't that many voters who hold a grudge against him to the extend that they'd want to see Republicans lose the seat.
