“Poll numbers go up, and they go down,” he added. “When they go down, you don’t insult Iowa voters because they are the same discerning voters.” [snip]

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Tex.) made the issue his standout moment on the debate stage Wednesday, and it was one of the most well-received portions of his speech at the Iowa forum.
“How about instead of a bunch of attack journalists, we actually have real conservatives” moderate debates, Cruz said, before name-checking several conservative pundits including “Fox News” host Sean Hannity, and radio hosts Rush Limbaugh and Mark Levin.
