You are right, Romney supports Cruz, that is as establishment that you can get

Looked what happened when Christie broke rank and supported Trump? Every newspaper in NJ was calling for his resignation because of his support of Trump

More like 'load the beer'.

That's what it's going to take to get through this election.

If it takes a Cruz/Kasich ticket to get us across the line in November then we still win. Reagan had his GHWB.

I voted for Cruz twice this week. Once in Texas, once at CPAC.

And plenty more opportunities for Trump to change his positions. Isn’t that a bit troubling to Trump supporters?

I’m happy to see Cruz have a good day, and I’ll be happy to have this come down to Cruz and Trump. I could get behind either one. But like someone said upthread, “And I’ll get on my knees and pray.....”

Thank you for a great post.

I am a Cruz supporter who has made it clear that Trump deserves to be heard and to be treated fairly, and that if he wins the nomination he has my support.

I have also congratulated Trump supporters here on his NH, SC, NV and Super Tuesday wins, they were solid.

If Rubio and Kasich drop out, Trump will either pick up enough of those votes to get anoutright majority, or he won’t.

The GOP-E is fit to be tied for as long as Cruz is #2 to Trump, or if Trump were #2 to Cruz. Collectively, they want neither. Singularly some fear/dislike one more than the other. Big Ag probably fears Cruz more, Big Political Consultancy fears Trump more. Overall, they want neither.

Get rid of Rubio, and MAKE them pick their poison, show themselves as thieves at the convention, openly support HRC or pick a John B. Anderson type to back.

I am for Cruz, I respect most Trump supporters. Let’s be on the same team this fall.

If Trump isn’t strong enough to defeat Cruz, then Trump isn’t strong enough to defeat Hillary. If Cruz isn’t strong enough to defeat Trump, then Cruz isn’t strong enough to defeat Hillary.

+1

And, Trump may be about to fall off the cliff.

Amen, Marie! I thing the vast majority of us who favor Trump would have any doubts about voting for Cruz if he should become the nominee. I’d like to say the opposite is true but my sense is that more Cruz supporters are not clear on who the real enemy is.

Trump & Cruz are the anti-establishment candidates.

Trump's appeal is he is not a politician, not PC, is not bullied by the MSM.

We've heard both sides say they will never vote for the other.

I am not one of those and hope there are not many.

I'm Cruz/Trump.

I'll support and defend Cruz till there is a Trump nomination.

Two questions for which we may soon know the answers:

1. Can Rubio win Puerto Rico tomorrow?

2. How far can the Media/GOPe go in trying to spin a win on that island territory into "game-changing momentum" without breaking out in laughter.

Cruz has been solidly establishment his entire adult life until the TEA revolution when like a lot of other careerists he found a “anti-establishment” gene. He’s a careerist fraud in my book.

He’s (Cruz) solidly establishment

No matter how many times you FRumpsters say it, it will never be true.

Ted Cruz was anti-establishment before Donald Trump was even a Republican.
