I wonder how the race would have been different if those losers had dropped out? I wonder who would the go for? Trump or Cruz? Or Rubio?

In my opinion: Bush voters will mostly go to Rubio if and when he gets out.

Fiorina voters will split between Cruz and Rubio if and when she gets out.

Kasich voters will go to Rubio. He'll have to get out to remain viable beyond this election cycle. He'll probably get out after New Hampshire.

Huckabee voters will go to Cruz.

Christie voters will split between Rubio, Cruz, and Trump.

Santorum voters will got to Cruz.

That would have been 12% of the vote which would be pro-establishment votes. I’d say they would have went to Rubio which could have put him over the top.

But if either Trump or Cruz dropped out, then those votes would go anti-establishment and go for the one that did not drop out.

When it comes to the final finish, IMO it will be Trump or Cruz and most of the typical establishment voters will vote for the winner just to keep Hitlery out.
