I don't think Cruz would be the equivalent of Goldwater. The country is much more polarized now. I would say a Republican in a national election has a floor of about 45 or 46 percent, about McCain's vote share in 2008. I think it would be slightly worse in the electoral college than 2008. I actually think Cruz would win North Carolina, because there is a big evangelical base there, and Georgia, but possible lose Missouri and Arizona.
