"He would have a hard time drawing key constituencies"

That's kinda the POINT, ain't it???

Cruz would not only lose the black and hispanic vote, he'd lose the Independent vote.

Respected Republicans would come out against Cruz.

Running for President isn't like being in the Debating Society in college.

If it was then Truman would have lost in 1948, Eisenhower would have lost in 1952, Kennedy would have lost in 1960, and on and on.

Actually, I think Lincoln would have lost in 1860.

Regardless of his extreme beliefs, Cruz just looks too weird on television.

Pretty Romney is thus still in play, perhaps to be drafted at the convention. So is Bush, so is, dare I say, and handsome Paul Ryan who is being re-branded, as insurance.

Image matters, for better or worse, regardless of party.
