Journalism prof Jeff Jarvis says Ted Cruz 'every bit as frightening as Trump'

Ted Cruz had a good day on Saturday, which included a large margin of victory in Kansas.

According to Jeff Jarvis, there’s little difference between the top two GOP contenders:

Keep in mind that Cruz is every bit as frightening as Trump.

First of all, there are some who agree with Jarvis or even think Cruz is more frightening:

I think he'd prove to be even worse. https://t.co/dPSOSHI4oL

I think even more frightening. True religious nut. Trump is only faking that. https://t.co/eUsZKF0Vdk

@jeffjarvis to my light, Cruz is more frightening than Trump—because more rigid, more conservative, more devoted making the US a theocracy.

Exactly! https://t.co/90uyQYc4a4

@jeffjarvis more frightening if you ask me—Cruz actually believes every word he says.

So very true. https://t.co/8ZkNUfwFQ5

Even more frightening, the man puts down Supreme Court justices https://t.co/Chp85zoPtO

More so, actually. And far more likely shot at beating Hillary. https://t.co/PFRZRSz6Aa

Shudder!

And then there are those who believe Jarvis is totally off base:

Yes, it's terrifying to actually have a candidate that believes in and fights for the Constitution. #Cruz https://t.co/L5WdReGrHC

@jeffjarvis
Yep.
If you're a Washington insider or a democrat I guess @tedcruz is scary as hell.
