The biggest blow dealt to Ted Cruz this week didn't come from a fellow politician.
A brave citizen stood up and gave the presidential hopeful what is perhaps one of the harshest critiques he is sure to receive over the course of his political career.
Yep. That's right. Ted Cruz has been accused of liking Nickelback.

If the allegations -- which stem from the handwritten sign seen above -- turn out to be true, it could mean trouble for the Texas senator, who is currently leading the polls in Iowa.

The mysterious sign holder was photographed several times, leading some to believe that he is following the campaign bus around, working hard to expose Cruz's alleged musical tastes.
Potential voters commented on social media Thursday, with some defending the presidential hopeful's honor.
@PatrickSvitek @RBStalin @tedcruz Such a lie! NO ONE likes Nickelback — MyNameIsForMyFriends (@quixotal) January 7, 2016
Others, however, were not so willing to dismiss the serious allegations.
A man who likes #Nickelback can not be trusted. That's why the youth won't vote for you @tedcruz pic.twitter.com/IiJvHMvXII — Sammy Vasquez (@sambux1) January 5, 2016
Meanwhile, four doors away from the Flynn Center in Burlington, Vermont, where Donald Trump was campaigning Thursday night, a group hung a handmade sign from a second-floor window above a business.
Later, their "Trump listens to Nickelback" sign was replaced with a different one with just three words: “Feel The Bern."
