But there’s another possibility, too — one that induces salivation among the GOP’s old guard of powerbrokers. Cruz, by some unparalleled turning of the tables, has his second-ballot nomination taken away, and party mandarins manage to install John Kasich or Paul Ryan or Rick Perry as their nominee. If rules must be rewritten, so be it. If the will of the voters must be overlooked, so what. Just get one of “our guys” at the top of the ticket. The end justifies the means, right?
