“And the acrimony over at DU regarding this is endlessly entertaining.”

More entertaining than the endless acrimony right here on FR of Trump vs. Cruz, lol?

Cruz needs 50% to make a win worth it. Otherwise, it’s proportional and the delegates are pretty much evenly distributed.

Trump is the only politician who has some balls. The trump haters have to admit that.

Not happening. Trump will win Texas.

Cruz needs to drop out.

Cruz’s best shots on Super Tuesday seem to be Texas and Arkansas. You’d also think Oklahoma is in play, but Trump has a small lead.

The deep South states of Georgia and Alabama strongly lean Trump at this point. The polling is sparse in Tennessee, but should follow Georgia and Alabama.

Trump’s a lock in Massachusetts and likely Vermont. He leads in Virginia.

Rubio’s best hope has to be in Minnesota.

Alaska is always a crapshoot. The Colorado caucus rules are odd and there’s no polling in Wyoming.

He can’t drop out now, Glenn Beck already swore him in. It would be quite the scandal.

Doesn’t matter what happens in Texas. Cruz’s goose is cooked. It’s over. Trump is going to win in the vast majority of Super Tuesday states next week. And Texas will be close; maybe even larger pro Trump than the pundits think. Super Tuesday is going to be the kiss of death for both Cruz and Rubio. After this coming Tuesday, it’s all over but the singing, and the fat lady will be singing that day too. President Trump, here we come!

As I said on Trump in SC...

40% would be a grand slam.
30-40% is a base hit.
Less than 30% is a strike.

But if Cruz picks up more delegates than any other candidate, it is significant. He stays in the game.

You need to drop out.

“Doesn’t matter what happens in Texas. Cruz’s goose is cooked. It’s over.”

Trump has a long, long way to go. The nomination is his to lose, but he has to push through to the finish line before the coronation starts.

And if Cruz wins in Texas it keeps him in play. So, yeah, Texas does matter.

Even if Cruz wins he loses. He's going to have to spend both time and money defending Texas as opposed to trying to compete in the other primaries.

And that's what Cruz is doing trying to defend Texas from Trump. Ten out of the next eleven Cruz events are in Texas.

Will Texans remember in 2018 that their sitting Senator didn’t bother to tell them in 2012 that he was Canadian?

Excellent point.

Cruz has a long history of flat out lying...just like a typical establishment dirtbag.

In the same manner that the GOPe are the “official opposition” party of the Dems but actually in complete collusion, Cruz is the “official opposition” to the GOPe while being in collusion. With the added layer of Mr. Pious Holy mask.

I love the fact that when I went to vote for Ted Cruz today, the pagination of Trump’s name on the ballot made finding him difficult.

Cruz’s name was at the top of the ballot and easy to locate.

Trumps name was in a separate column and it looked like he was not actually a presidential candidate.

Go Cruz!
