Yes and most of the knowledgeable pundits are pretty much accepting it too. Absent an alien abduction Trump will be the GOP nominee. Its just too hard for the Cruzers to accept at this point. So they will keep postulating these tortuous routes to victory for Ted until after Iowa and NH then it will cease. :-)
I understand those that follow Cruz. But it almost from the beginning they should have realized that Ted would have a hard time broadening his base. His very sincerely held believes are a turn off to this ever increasing irreligious country.
It is nice though to be against a candidate that you admire, because you think they can’t win. Same goes for Dr.Carson.
