Senator Cruz is the Rock Star of the Tea Party faction of the Republican Party. To them, he can do no wrong. He racks up big points by slamming Democrats and even those Republicans who are conciliatory. But his political base is very narrow. He excites a segment of the Republican Party but will generate strong opposition, if not animosity, from virtually all Democrats, many independents and mainstream Republicans. He is a sprinter who has leaped out of the starting blocks and has surged to an early lead. But the race to the White House is a marathon, not a 100 yard dash. The finish line is a long way off and there is a very good chance that Senator Cruz will not be around when the gold medal is awarded in the winners circle.
