Donald will run the clock out. Why dick around with Ted. Fourth quarter with 3 minutes on the clock with a 9 point lead. See ya Ted.
Trump ran.
Cruz wants/needs a lot more camera time.The problem for Cruz is that people won’t tune in just to watch him.He desperately needs Trump there to draw a crowd.
Cruz can't let it go. Before Trump came in the race Cruz couldn't get 5 minutes total press a week. Then Bush was all news all the time. Then Cruz sank his claws into Trump and has been along on the ride since. If Cruz lets Trump go, it's over.
The worst thing Trump will have to do is to make sure some worthy vet group gets better than $1.5 million. Why should he really give Ted a chance to move up at this date? I wouldn’t do it... take a knee and run it out.
Bad headline. Shows Ted’s backers are willing to give to a worthy cause only if it satisfies certain political conditions. This is not good.
That's a pretty apt comparison.
Go Broncos!
If Ted’s super PACs are so concerned about the vets,why don’t they just donate the 1.5 million right now?
This whole thing reeks of desperation.
Are the candidates and their PAC suppose to stay separate? Sure doesn’t seem they are in this situation. Shame if someone turned them in!

Good point
The Boss is the one calling the shots sir, get back in line.
Trump should say “Make it $50 million and you’re on!”
$1.5 million ain’t enough and Trump walks away from bad deals.
I think the establishment, and even Ted, are trying to shame Trump into playing their game. It is a shame that Trump’s alternative to benefit some veterans has been politicized and jockeyed to support other motives by Cruz and company.
I like Ted. I was for him for months and months until recently I decided Cruz supporters here (mainly) are completely intransigent to goals that don’t necessarily result in Cruz being the only option. I still like Ted, and I will vote for him in a general election - gladly and proudly, but this just smacks of desperation and somewhat underhanded.
Correct.
LOL! Trump stomped his feet, then ran for cover. Very perplexing. :)
BTW, fascinating spin on O’Reilly last night. Trump is projecting his own ego-defense mechanism on his potential role as President, i.e., the way he defends himself is the way he will defend America, paraphrasing what he said last night. This is so brilliant. He takes what would ordinarily go down as a disabling personal sensitivity to insult and spins it into, this isn’t really about me, but about America. Pure genius. Right up there with the famous Marx brothers quip, “Who you gonna believe? Me or your lying eyes?”
Peace,

Yep. All the way 'running the table' to the nomination.
Cruz following Trump around like a sad puppy again.
Texas money pacs set up for contributions of $10 million or so per donor.
One of the four had a $15 million donation via several family members.
