For all of you who have not yet received the latest edition of the Newspeak dictionary, let me fill you in on the updates.

Controlling the delegate selection process to ensure that only Cruz supporters will be allowed to win delegate positions will now be referred to as having a strong ground game.

Fighting back against disenfranchisement of voters will now be referred to as whining.

Any questions?

Whining while talking about whining? Quite a trick.

In addition Big Brother, in his wisdom, has now determined that if your car has been stolen, or your house broken into, you will now be held responsible for the theft for not protecting your property better. Those who committed the theft will now be absolved of any guilt. This is for your own good, people. Any questions?

Cruz is not principled. He only uses that act to win votes and mold his persona. The reason why he promotes his own faith and other Conservative issues so strongly is just like the tactic BHO telling middle-class Americans that he is for them. The opposite was true. This is how politicians work. Ted Cruz’s conservative meme has become a joke particularly because he tries to push these aspects so farcically.

Cruz is controlling the delegate selection process because his supporters are showing up, and Trump's aren't. This is hardly the only story about Trump not even having a list of delegate names for people to vote on.

There is a long tradition of controlling the delegate selection process, primarily to make sure the delegates look after the interests of the state party. There have been specialists for several decades, probably more, in steering that selection toward particular candidates. So long as that steering also respected the state party interests, the state Republican Party organizations had no problem with it.

Trump needs to start playing the game too, since that is the game he has entered. I'm not blaming him for thinking that winning so many state primaries matters more than it does, but I will blame him if he continues to fail to learn how the system actually works.
