It was ridiculous to name a VP before gaining the nomination.

Ted is done. Because of the way he has run this campaign, he may be done permanently.

Not just that. It is the arrogance that insider party delegate manipulation and selection trumps actual voter preference coupled with the ridiculous ‘swearing in’ ceremony by Cheep Justice Beck both onstage in blue jeans was the beginning of his downfall of arrogance.

This VP thing in the face of a voter campaign he positively cannot win is just the final court decree of the insanity.

It might not be all Ted, after all Jeff Roe is running the campaign. He seems to be the real sleazebag.

“It was ridiculous to name a VP before gaining the nomination.”

I like Cruz, but I agree with you: It was a dumb move.

Cruz’s campaign is indeed imploding. He needs to strike a deal with Trump that if he (Cruz) bows out, and Trump goes on to win the nomination and then the election, Cruz will be Trump’s first nominee for a Supreme Court vacancy. As much as I admire Cruz, he could best serve the country as a Supreme Court justice.

I only saw video of Carly signing to Ted’s daughters, did not hear her announcement as his VP pick or her comments at the event, but dear God!

Carly sings of looking forward to going on a bus trip to play and play and play?!!!

sweet as it may seem, clearly shows her priorities are messed up on what she was just picked to do.

At this point, with the lead of Trump, anyone who votes for Cruz or Kasich or any pundits pushing for any candidate other than trump is only asking to stop Trump and go for a brokered convention and thus are rallying behind the GOP E. How stupid. You think these “smart” people like Levin etc would realize that.

Naming a VP has been done before. It didn’t help reagan, either. I suspect Fiorina pushed it, and it shows. She brings little, yet she appears to have taken over his campaign.
