Cruz is in desperation mode, as seen with that weird speech he gave the other night. Contrasted poorly with Trump’s gracious speech.
Cruz’s strongest day was supposed to be yesterday. From here on forward, Cruz will struggle to even beat Rubio.
Cruz won the biggest state by a pretty big margin. And he won the only CLOSED primary held so far! Next week will be the big story of who will win—Trump or Cruz.
Closed primaries and winner take all states are voting. It will be YUUUGE. Rubio should quit after losing Florida.
In a two person race Cruz out performs Trump, but that can change between now and a two man race. Plus the GOPe will be playing tricks to keep the delegates from going to Trump or Cruz so they can have a brokered convention. Look for Romney to jump in to pull in delegates from California and other states.
I agree that the map doesn’t look great for Cruz moving forward, but Rubio’s only path forward is a miracle, or a fix.
