My continued fear is that we wind up with a single GOPe candidate against a splint Trump and Cruz electorate. When it gets to winner take all states Teump could get 33%, Cruz 33% and the GOPe candidate 34% and the GOPe candidate takes home all the delegates. The quicker it gets down to Teump or Cruz the better but I do not see that happening before March 15 the date of the Texas primary. Ohio and Florida could both wind up in the delegate counts of the GOPe candidate and theoretically so could Texas. That would be a disaster.

The good news is that they cannot agree on an Establishment candidate (John Ellis Bush, Rubio, Kasich). The other good news is that can't agree on an outsider to take out (Cruz, Trump).

RCP has Trump 36/Cruz 19/John Ellis Bush 10. That's not good for any delegates. No delegates, no leverage at convention. We also don't have the crazy Superdelegate setup the Dems have.
