This is probably just the right balance for Ted Cruz:
Senior Republicans have been asking Cruz to apologize to [Senate Majority Leader Mitch] McConnell so they can unite behind his bid to defeat Donald Trump.
But Cruz did offer some kind words for McConnell Thursday.
“Now I will tell you this, I am happy to praise Mitch McConnell and praise him effusively for his stand, along with (Senate Judiciary Chairman) Chuck Grassley, saying we are not going to hold hearings on a replacement” to the Supreme Court, Cruz told Bash. “Mitch McConnell’s doing the right thing, Chuck Grassley’s doing the right thing, and I’m proud to commend them. I’ve done so publicly many times.”
If Cruz apologizes for his criticism of McConnell, it will come across as disingenuous and an implicit admission that his view of McConnell — and by extension, his entire approach during the government shutdown — was wrong. But if Cruz sidesteps that past bad blood, and gives honest praise to McConnell and other Senate Republicans for stances, and taking the conservative position when it’s not easy (as we’re seeing in the Supreme Court nomination), it takes a step towards uniting the party.
Right now, Cruz is the main non-Trump option. He’s got to win over as many of his former foes as possible.

In the January 14 GOP debate, Donald Trump, in an attempt to twist Ted Cruz’s “New York values” comment to his advantage, ignored Cruz’s actual criticism, which was labeled at New York City citizens’ leftist values, and cynically chose instead to launch into a peroration extolling New Yorkers for their response to the 9/11 attacks.

With his win in Tuesday’s open primary in the blue state of Wisconsin, Ted Cruz has now beaten Donald Trump in 11 of 21 states that have been contested to date outside of the South. Cruz has now beaten Trump in three Midwestern states (Wisconsin, Iowa, and Minnesota—with Cruz having finished second and Trump third in the latter), one Northeastern state (Maine), three Plains states (Texas, Oklahoma, and Kansas), three Western Frontier states (Idaho, Utah, and Wyoming), and one state outside of the Lower 48 (Alaska).
The South is Trump country, and he is undefeated there, having posted 11 wins and 0 losses in states ranging from Arkansas and Louisiana to the west and Kentucky and Virginia to the north. Yet Trump has now posted a winning percentage of just .429 (with 9 wins and 12 losses) outside of the South. None of the remaining contests are in the South (unless one considers West Virginia to be part of the South, in which case Trump will likely soon be 12-0 in Southern states).

Anybody who tweets out against real estate mogul Donald Trump immediately get swarmed hordes of vicious pro-Trump Twitter accounts. It turns out many of those accounts appear to be fake and part of a coordinated campaign.
The speculation about the phoniness of the Trump Twitter army began with a post by Erick Erickson in The Resurgent, and he bases his conjecture on three main points:
