I think the party realized in the last decade or so that they are slowly losing control of the candidate selection process. It all came to a head when the Tea Party candidates beat out the Old Guard.

So this is not a "Stop Trump" issue per se. It's more a "Hey Guys we are all losing our cushy vote buying jobs and we can't let the voters do that" issue. Trump and I think Cruz too is just the guys they don't want this time. Jeb was supposed to be sweeping Primaries and Caucuses and "Convention Selections" but Cruz and Trump upset their apple cart. So now they have to choose and of course they are going to choose the guy that has already been in the Repub vote buying system.

Too bad Cruz has shown that he is just another politiclown mouthing politiclown platitudes. Is Trump much better ? Maybe a little but my feeling is he will get inside the party and not only upset the apple cart he will clean house by underhanded tricks and maneuvers and dismantle the Republican Party and I feel it can't happen soon enough!

You are spot on.

It’s about the party protecting it’s turf.

And I would not be surprised if Rick Santorum actually won Wyoming along with Colorado. It is so simple and easy to cheat in a caucus situation. A clever 6 year old could figure it out.

Did you see my post on Colorado yesterday?

Santorum had won by over 6% but they gave most the delegates to Romney.
They are dishonest unethical party scum and need to be revealed.
And we have the list of 2012 & 2016 Delegates. Looking for names.

A whole lot of lifelong republicans quit and went Independent.
