It's a foregone conclusion that:

a. Cruz definitely would not have carried NY if he is the nominee, even before the comments, so literally it was a throw away line - cost him nothing.

b. By making Trump look like the hero and savior of NY'ers and their values, he not only galvanizes the REP base there, but sways Independents and right leaning DEM's toward a guy that defends their very core. A guy that not only represents, but embodies THEM.

NY - which was a slam-dunk for Hilary, is now VERY much in play with a Trump candidacy.

I'd say it is a brilliantly innovative scheme, but Vince McManon has been doing this for years. And it is amazingly effective.
