Yes, I did not have much confidence in Trump winning Wisconsin. I mean practically the entire GOP power structure in the state is against him. Even the radio hosts. He will have to wait until NY to attempt to pull his next win.

That’s not a translation, that’s putting a whole mess of words in the poster’s mouth. No need to resort to lib tactics just because we won’t join the cult of the anointed king.

[proust]

He can lose WI and still have a path, unlike Cruz.

[PJBankard]

Yes, that is why there last poll in February shows Trump at 30% Rubio at 20% and Cruz at 19% with an MOE of 7.5 and the poll only being Registered Republicans. Funny how Trump hasn’t moved in the poll and all of Rubio’s support has migrated to Cruz. I don’t buy it. And without internals, it is still meaningless.

You’re wasting your breath on Cruzers. They stopped fighting the establishment, have joined in fact. They know Cruz is using GOP money, GOP organization and they don’t care even though Cruz means exactly what we currently have.

You can’t cure stupid.

is Heidi showing up at the Women for Cruz rally as promised yesterday?

[proust]

“Women for Cruz rally”? Talk about bad timing.

Do you Cruz supporters realize that his only chance is a brokered convention?

Not Brokered, A Contested Convention by Cruz & Trump only.

Plenty of time left before the primary. 6 days.

Trump blew it in Wisconsin by going on WROK in Rockford, Illinois, blasting Walker for not raising taxes, and claiming he messed up the economy of the state.

Utterly tone deaf. I over two years commuting 180 miles from the Rockford area to Madison EVERY DAY because there was no work in the Rockford area, and little in Chicago (with 100 people applying for each IT spot, it seemed). Those of us who left Illinois and went to Wisconsin every day got to make a great comparison. Madison has it's issues, and things improved dramatically under Walker in SO MANY WAYS. I got to see it first hand, which is why at first I dithered between Cruz and Walker, who is the do-er that everyone claims to want.

Trump lied about the Walker budget. He inherited a $3 billion dollar deficit that Doyle and company left on the way out the door, turning it into a $2 billion dollar surplus in the space of ONE YEAR. While Trump lies and claims that Walker ran a deficit, he never has. He DID find and prove that the University hid $600 million dollars while they wanted their umpteenth massive tuition increase in a row. He made them FREEZE tuition.

When Walker was attacked, he responded by introducing something another act (concealed carry, iron mining in Door County) to make their heads explode again! After all, the lefties coalesce on each others causes.

Back to the my original point, for Trump to go to Wisconsin and say he loves Wisconsin, and then go to Illinois and trash Walker and Wisconsin to the state with the $40 trillion dollar long term unfunded debt) , when most Illinoisians ENVIED Wisconsin's position, was stupid. politically stupid. Morally Stupid. Stupid Stupid.

And for what? To go on a low wattage station that goes no farther than Beloit during the low-rated 10:00 time slot feeding into Rush? Trump should be up in Door County, where people were ruined by the environmentalisrts decades ago and are still recovering, or into Milwaukee, where a nationalistic industrialist message resonates, or to the parking lot of teh shuttered GM plant in Janesville.

I'm a Cruz supporter who doesn't look to trash Trump, but him going after Walker dishonestly, or ignorantly, it doesn't really matter which, hurts Trump politically, regardless of whom I support.

Must be fraud!

[Brilliant]

“Third Place Donald” would be a good moniker.

[MomwithHope]

Looks like the more people get to know Trump his numbers go down and the more they get to know Cruz his numbers go up.
IMO Trump has blown it all on his own with his temperament, demeanor and lack of knowledge and substance.

The following thread tells us something about Marquette University.

[gbscott1954]

We’ve been trying to tell you Trump people, ABSOLUTELY NO ONE likes Trump but the core Trump people. I can see absolutely no one who supported Rubio moving over in the Trump camp. You have a ceiling of support that you can’t break out of. No other front runner has been this long without cracking 50% in a primary.

Heidi, Heidi, Heidi, Ho

must be working fine in Wisconsin....

Do you Cruz supporters realize that his only chance is a brokered convention?

***************

How do you figure that? The GOPe isn’t going to go with Cruz and once the dealing starts
look for someone favored by the old line gop committee members.

Not Brokered, A Contested Convention by Cruz & Trump only.
......................................................

I would guess it will become brokered after neither Trump or Cruz secures the nomination on the first vote. In any scenario other than Trump winning the nomination outright, the candidate gets slaughtered by Hillary.

[Beagle8U]

I said days ago that Cruz will win WI.

Fixed it for you.
