Grandpa Munster and the mailman’s son are the walking dead. Neither can win the nomination and certainly not the general.

Your declarative first sentence is truth. Now, who is in a better position to address the issue? Cruz or Trump "Mr. Two Corinthians"?

Roberts got it wrong no doubt, and bringing that in on an abortion debate is a logic failure. How can you hold any man to absolute infallibility? Jesus Christ is the only one to pass that test.

Cruz also screwed up on TPP (and then corrected himself). But I don't care. It's about the unborn, and who the best warrior is for that fight, to include SCOTUS picks. Cruz is the best prepared to do so.

Proof please. I have seen nothing that shows that Soros donated to Cruz. I have seen however connections between Trump and Soros.

Cruz is in the race to stop Trump

He cannot win 85% of remaining delegates

If he does he deserves his victory

Do you support him as a winner or to stop Trump

Once it becomes mathematically impossible which is soon.,,,will you still support him or not?

Simple question

White conservative republicans can sometimes be as absurd as white liberal democrats. Noted.

Well since I live in Louisiana... I have already voted for Cruz. I will gladly do it again once he secures the nomination.

The rule is the majority of delegates + 1. Will you still support Trump when it becomes a mathmatical impossiblity for him to reach that number?

If Cruz was so good on abortion, why did he attack Trump when Trump said women getting abortions would have to be punished if such an act was illegal. That is a pretty basic stance and if Cruz cannot even say that how will he fight any real battle to make abortion a criminal act?

The man is an empty suit on Abortion.

Cruz cannot win. If he’s a real American he will step aside. He lost, hope he is a real American and does the right thing.

I used to be a single-issue pro-life voter.

But there are more lives at stake than just the unborn.

"I tend to support Trump, but his continuous name calling is wearing thin."

But that's Trump. He's always done that.

If it becomes mathematically impossible for Cruz it may still be that Trump doesn't win a majority either. In which case neither of them deserves anything and it will be a matter of seeing which can muster a majority.

And it is also part of the reason his negatives are so high.

Unless Cruz wins every remaining primary he will be unable to hit the 1237 +1

Trump only has to win one to make it impossible for Cruz to hit that number

Once that happens then what will you do?

If Cruz wins enough on a roll to do the impossible I would begrudgingly support him but mathematically that is minuscule whereas odds are within 2 weeks that is precisely where Cruz will be

And he and his supporters who stay in are there to stop Trump

We get it now trust me

If you think say Trump hits 1100-1200 and Cruz has 700 that Cruz can muster a win in a contested convention given he has 40% less primary voter support I just don’t see that happening

I take from your parsing you support Cruz but when that fails as it likely will then you’ll support stopping Trump

Who’s your preference in an establishment pick in that event?

Yes but Cruz will be mathematically impossible long before Trump

So if Cruzbots stay in

For what?

To stop Trump is why

Cruz is smart enough to know that we as a nation, are not there yet. Leadership is required. At least one SCOTUS appointment (and probably another), and a Huckabee proposal to give the unborn constitutional rights.

He is NOT an empty suit on this issue. He is and has been the most consistent.

I respect that. But if the men of this nation are unwilling to fight for the weakest, we are not men. And we don't deserve to live in freedom, or live at all. The men of Canaan found that out after sacrificing their kids.

In short, how we view the unborn determines everything else. End the end, we defend our vote with a face to face meeting with Christ Himself.

Good for you hope he doesn’t fail you like he has on other issue. Finally back on line.

April 26th is the end of the cruise for Cruz. He officially runs out of gas and delegates.
