You all are being duped by the GOPe once again.

Trump bashing because you don’t perceive him to be as ideologically pure is killing this country’s prospects week by week.

There is no way Cruz is getting to a first ballot win, so the best he can do is keep Trump out. And that will lead to a GOPe victory with neither the candidate, but instead some sellout (who will likely lose to Hillary) like Ryan or Romney or Kasich or Rubio.

Even Podhoretz, who has been leading the anyone but Trump charge, has finally caught on to what the Cruzers, including Levin and Limbaugh, have been creating for them:

Agreed.

Your link doesn't say that, nor is it remotely feasible; the clear #1 non-Don to unite around is Cruz, few if any of whose delegates are likely to want Ryan or Romney or Kasich or Rubio.

'his speech, which featured Cruz throwing the same red meat he always throws.' That 'red meat' is called conservative principles - we used to like that sort of thing on FR.

'his “I won fair and square even if I didn’t get 1,237” card'. There is no such card - the convention makes the nomination according to the published rules, period.
