He tried to force his mom to dredge up painful memories to make himself look better in the ad. What a jerk! And why is his wife wearing her cardigan criss-crossed over the chest, blueblood WASP style, inside at the dinner table?

His poor family....his mother, his wife, his daughters, all look uncomfortable and 'forced' any time he tries to come across as a 'normal' family man in an ad.
Gives me kind of an 'ick' feeling watching them have to go through this...doesn't ring true at all.
I am not standing up for Cruz in any way, shape, or form. What I don't like is that some people base their votes on if they think someone is "likable". I don't care if they are likable, I want someone to get the job done. I won't vote for Cruz because I think he's part of the establishment as much as he claims that he's not, and because I think he lies about too many things. The pounding on the podium annoys me, but if that was all that I had, it wouldn't stop me from voting for him.
This whole, "Oh, I like the way he looks" or "I like the way he talks" or "I like his pleated pants" has gotten us one of the worst presidents known in this country. Stop focusing on how "funny" they are, and start focusing on what they can actually do, have done, and want to do.

He only cares about "Raphael" but I suspect by what I have read that they brought him up to believe that he was "special", much more "special" than others so they created the monster that he is.

If you watch his wife when they are together in the news, it looks very strained. I don't think his wife or kids really care for him. Why would they?

I wouldn't see a point in that since it is staged anyway. Cruz is the only one desperate enough to play this. He was pandering for the "Christian values" vote while running the most deceitful campaign I have ever seen. What a fool!
He's got a sense of humor. Yet still so unlikable . . . .

The poster here who called Cruz "sanctimonious" in another thread, hit the nail on the head. That "pause for effect" which he does in everything he says is annoying as all get out.

If you think his persona is phony, it calls into question "the realness" of his other statements.
