Did you see that Neil Bush, W's brother (Fredo?), has been hired by the Cruz campaign to run their finances? If you don't think they GOPe is going to fully get behind Cruz with a ton of money, you might be missing something.
They want a brokered convention, and will use Cruz to do it; they aren't done when Kasich fails.
Answer me this: Will the GOP establishment give Cruz the nomination if there is a brokered convention?
If not, why would he help them give the nomination to someone who else?
It makes no sense whatsoever for Cruz to be working for people who despise him, for people like Lindsay Graham who just two weeks ago joked about killing Cruz on the Senate floor.
Cruz will release his delegates and endorse Trump when Trump names Cruz his running mate. And then Cruz will owe the establishment nothing.
The RNC can’t mingle their money with Cruz’ money. It is against the law. Neil is there to manage the money Cruz raises. This has nothing to do with the RNC. The RNC does not spend money in a primary on candidates...they don’t do that. That would be unfair to the other candidates. Now, others can start Super PACS, but that is not RNC money.
