Rick Brookhiser was talking about the genius of Donald Trump in being able to seize media attention — and the relative indifference to Ted Cruz. “Trump said he could shoot someone on Fifth Avenue and his voters wouldn’t care. If Cruz shot someone on Fifth Avenue, would it be covered?”

Rick has a genius for crystallizing.

If you want a conservative Republican who will apply our principles, reverse the Obama nightmare, and release America to be itself, vote Cruz.

(National Review’s endorsement of Cruz is here. My personal disclosure re him, made last summer, is here.)
