| Abstract: | Enough, for one week at least, about the strange victories of Donald Trump. Let's talk about the mysteries of his last real competitor, Ted Cruz. On the surface, Cruz is a straightforward figure: The ideological zealot, the politician-as-activist, the unbending embodiment of True Conservatism. He's the scourge of Obamacare, the bane of the GOP establishment, the evangelical moralist with a flat-tax plan and a Reagan quote for every occasion. If Trump has dynamited Republican orthodoxy and tapped out nasty tweets from the rubble, Cruz has kept pace by promising to rebuild that same orthodoxy stronger than before.
