I wish he would disassociate himself from screwball Beck.

...Make peace with the "establishment"...

How about just electing Trump and destroying the corrupt "establishment" at the same time.

Win/Win

Cruz is a non-factor in Florida and Ohio, and is apparently wasting time and money in Florida instead of focusing on other March 15 states. Cruz has no pathway to the nomination. The author neglects to mention that Cruz failed to reach his delegate goals the other day, and has lost the South, which Cruz claimed would wrap up his nomination by now.

Cruz can’t win. That is why the Bush clan are now hooking up to his carcass. They want Cruz to diminish some of Trump’s delegates, hoping that Trump falls beneath the the total he needs.

There's an opportunity now sitting here for the taking that will scream inclusivity, not be seen as pandering, and will make progressive heads explode: get Caitlyn Jenner on the campaign trail and do joint appearances.

If he does that, I'll declare for Trump.

Lord. Cruz is about to get some 3rd place finishes on Tuesday and they think he has a chance. Lol. Perhaps if they started this prop up Cruz thing a month or two ago he may have had a chance. Now we are running out of states. And the states he should have won in the South, he failed miserably. Plus how weak are you that you need everyone to leave so you can maybe win. If you can’t win with 4 people in the race, perhaps you are not a strong candidate.

Ted’s only chance is to compromise his principles and join the Uniparty.

In that whole wall of text I didn’t see once where they tell him to appeal better to the electorate.

“How Cruz can win.”

2nd Division needs to have a heck of a lot more children.

I love it when people who aren’t 1/10th as smart as the candidate try to tell them what to do. Apologize to McConnell and it will all be all right? But McConnell did lie, and Ted can only win as a conservative anti-establishment candidate. Otherwise, people would vote for Kasich or Rubio.

A crack pot theorist this author is. No more of this “big tent”, “appeal to moderates”, and become “electable” strategies!

Enough of political targeting Democrats, progressives, millenials, and minorities - how about appealing to conservatives for once?

I can condense the wall of verbiage that is this article:

SELL OUT TO THE GOPe.

You're welcome.

“The conservative/conservatarian/liberaservative/libertarian movement needs a politically intact Marco Rubio for the future.”

Why? In case amnesty doesn’t pass in the next eight years?

[full disclosure - Cruz supporter]

The ONLY way for Cruz to win before the convention is going to require a significant alteration of the voting pattern from the GOPe and their supporters. This year, the GOPe is the one that has to hold their nose when they vote and they dont like it.

The problem is that they still feel that things will turn around and their guys can win. No one appears to be ready to let go and gravitate behind a single candidate. As such, it is Trump’s to win. And I still predict about 1,300 delegates for Trump going into the convention.

There's one huge takeaway from Tuesday's primaries results: Ted Cruz overperformed in a state where conventional wisdom says he shouldn't have had a chance, namely Michigan. His overperformance - edging out John Kasich for second place, in a state where Kasich should naturally be stronger - is way more significant looking forward than his once-again second place finish in Mississippi, which is another of those southern states that Cruz's campaign based their dubious "evangelicals who don't vote because no one is conservative enough" strategy upon.

Yes, that .6% margin of victory will thunder down to the last syllable of recorded history!

You can't have it both ways.

You can't have Ted Cruz in second place, and then crow because he beats the guy in fourth place.

You can't say Kasich can't win and then make him out to be "naturally stronger" in a state when he's undercovered and underfunded everywhere.
