It is good to see CRUZ exposed and the D E S P E R A T E tactics of a desperate loser.

Voters need to see how he is doing it.

If it is truly theft, and not an intelligent use of the rules and available resources, then quick call the cops.

Otherwise, you’re saying Trump is getting out-organized and out-worked again? Not a good profile for a President ....

You people do know that Cruz won 45.9% of the vote in Maine, right? So if the process in Maine wasn’t rigged, Cruz should get all of the delegates because, 45.9% is pert darn near 50.1%, and Maine should be a winner take all state. What say you Trump supporters?

The rules only apply to Cruz when it favors him. Just like Obama. When they don’t he cheats.

Wow, spin much?

The delegates are bound by Maine Republican Party rules to honor the results of the state Republican caucus in March when Ted Cruz won 12 delegates, Donald Trump won nine and John Kasich won two.

So Ted Cruz, the Texas senator who won nearly all of the state’s 16 counties, is assured of 12 Maine delegates on the first ballot at the national convention, but those delegates could switch candidates afterward. The same goes for front-runner Donald Trump’s nine delegates and Ohio Gov. John Kasich’s two.

What remains is the election of delegates to represent each candidate. That will take place early Friday after the convention kicks off at the Cross Insurance Center in Bangor. Twenty delegate seats are up for grabs. Three – a national committeeman, committeewoman and Bennett – have already been selected. Roughly 200 Maine Republicans are vying for the 20 spots.

In Maine, Republican delegates are bound to their candidate for the first ballot. After that they can switch their vote. In other words, a candidate bound to Trump now could vote for Cruz, Kasich or, depending on convention rules developed by the Republican National Committee, someone else after their first ballot is cast in Cleveland. The prospect of delegates changing their votes could set the stage for a competitive election on Friday, especially if the active presidential campaigns get involved.

Ok, so explain to me how Cruz is “stealing” delegates? By this logic, Trump could be stealing delegates. Kasich could be stealing delegates...

But is it not procedure to go and meet with delegates and talk to them and get them to come to your side? And is it Cruz’s fault, that he (or someone from his camp) is doing this and Trump, is not? Again, how is following the procedure, and the rules, “stealing”, let alone nefarious?

Cruz needs to keep doing this. It is absolutely killing his campaign. He and his Cruzies are too busy applauding his tactical brilliance and "knowledge of the rules" to notice that his support is tanking everywhere because of this crap.

The latest Reuters shows Trump (49.3) up 5 and Cruz (28.2) down 5 since April 18.

Trump is also up big in the upcoming April 26 primaries, as well as skyrocketing in California and pulling away in Indiana.

In the most outsider election of our lifetimes, Cruz is playing the conniving slimeball insider. For all to see.

He chose unwisely.

As I say, it is just delicious. Nobody deserves his upcoming ignominious defeat more than this reptilian charlatan, Ted Cruz.

I used to like Cruz AND Trump. Not too high on either right now but Trump’s lean left can be explained.. I have NO doubts he’ll appoint true patriots to key positions, especially military. The back door delegate raids by Team Cruz smacks of desperation and not earned HONESTLY.
