It was the best of campaigns and the worst of campaigns.
The best of Cruz is where he stands as a lone knight in the Senate who stopped amnesty. He introduced a poison pill amendment that scuttled Rubio's Gang of Eight amnesty gambit. If he would have continued in that vein, he might have done better as a candidate in the polls, but since he didn't, he really lost me with his off-the-rails campaign that it has become.
Here's Cruz going up against Fox, when Fox was in full Rubio mode. She is trying to give aid and support to a failing Rubio candidacy. Cruz did a lot to take out Rubio, and good riddance too. Note, however, that blocking amnesty is no long term solution to the border issue. Only a wall and a refusal to grant amnesty will do that. Cruz only has a temporary solution. Perhaps it is no solution at all, but a delaying tactic. It will only delay the inevitable unless the tide is turned with this influx of immigrants.
Cruz is better than Rubio, but not by much. I don't believe he will build that wall.
In this video, Cruz seems to be playing the race card. He sound his just like a Democrat here. It is Cruz at his worst. Sure, he needs to find a way to beat Trump, but how does it go with the above video?
Will the real Ted Cruz please stand up?
