Kind of an interesting place the GOP finds itself.
The closer we get to the convention, the more likely it looks that Cruz will probably emerge as the nominee.
The GOP establishment obviously has a severe disdain for Cruz.
If Cruz wins the presidency, great the GOP won the White House and most likely held their majority in the Senate and advanced their position in the House.
If Cruz loses the presidency, it'll firmly throw power in the GOP back to the establishment. They can tell Cruz to STFU about the idea that Republicans lose because they aren't "conservative enough". It'll probably signal a shift back to pre-Tea Party politics and a big win for the Republican establishment.
Regardless of the outcome, it looks like this election is shaping up to be a win for the GOP establishment.
