Cruz Waits for Trump and Carson to Fall

Wall Street Journal: “The fate of the Cruz candidacy—and in some ways the shape of the Republican race from here on out—turns on whether Messrs. Trump and Carson will fade when voters get closer to actually having to cast ballots. If that happens, their voters might simply evaporate, proving that they weren’t really GOP primary voters after all, or they might move to a more conventional choice, or they might move to a more experienced bad boy. That might well be Mr. Cruz.”

“Unlike some other candidates, Mr. Cruz mostly has avoided criticizing Messrs. Trump and Carson, presumably to leave open the possibility their backers may move to him eventually.”
