If Cruz gets the nod it will be another conservative.

Because in the month since Cruz has become the second highest candidate, his favorability with the GOP has gone from 64 to 55% with his unfavorability going from 16 to 23. That's +48 to +32. 

Meanwhile, with all voters, he is -4. 

If Cruz were to get the nomination, he would have to balance his ticket with a moderate if he wanted a shot at winning. He needs independents. Independents don't want someone who thinks fighting against gay marriage is a top issue.
