Good read by Stephen Stromberg, WAPO Editorial Writer.
IOWA CITY Ted Cruz is the Bernie Sanders of the Republican race, and Bernie Sanders the Ted Cruz of the Democratic race. No matter how you look at it, three delusions drive both candidates campaign narratives.
Delusion Number 1: We will transform the country, uniting it behind an expansive agenda that will move the nations politics sharply away from center. The country must see that it agrees with us and has all along.

Delusion Number 3: The country is in its current state because of the corrupt or otherwise illegitimate actions of others.
