Kasich will not do well in SC. Neither will Bush. Only question down there is can Rubio recover or does it turn into a two man race.

“Why can’t you use English? I know Trump would use the term bitch slapped but what does it mean?”

Trump probably would have used “schlonged”.

Anyway, since you didn’t know where to look:

And Trump crushes Cruz:

Trump 99,323 vs. Cruz 32,867 of votes counted and still counting.

From this linked blog...

The Establishment has no valid choice.....

.......their only viable option is to reluctantly get behind Cruz rather than suffering the existential threat of a Trump nomination.


LOL! Looks like they already have! Midge McConnell has loaned out his top Chamber of Commerce affiliated attorney to head the latest pro-Cruz PAC. Maybe this is where some of the dirty tricks are coming from.

Apologies. Headline could have been written better. However FR rules mean you can’t change the wording of the headlines of a posted article.

Trumps money isn’t from Goldman Sach, tax cheat Mercer or large amount anonymous donors. Big difference no $20 donor will be sending a lobbyist to collect favors.

>> Christie and Sanders are getting out. I hope Sanders doesn’t accuse me of anything for saying that

You meant Christie and CARSON, right? Not Sanders.

Would you like to provide proof of the GS contributions to Cruz? I presume that is who you are talking about or is it Hillary?

“Trump $3.7 M plus tons of free media”

So it looks as though Trump found the “sweet spot” and won with it! But the real bright spot is the “three amigos” (Boosh, The Cabana Boy, and Kasich) because they are like hungry dogs fighting over the same measly bone, and that will serve both Trump and Cruz well in the coming weeks. The RNC is dumber than dog $hit for not having two of them drop out now. The problem is, they don’t have the muscle to make it happen. Maybe they can hire Debbie Washerwoman-Shitz?

Big difference between small donations by supporters and large donor contributions via Super-PACs.

....More than 95% of the total contributions to super PACs supporting Ted Cruz came from donations of $1 million or more, more than any other candidate....

sure, sure....I get it, he’s not beholden to anyone. Right.

Do these numbers include what the PAC money spent? Remember Trump has no PAC money. Cruz does have PAC money.

Google the required reports that are mandatory to file. Your job to do your research.

>> Let everyone just keep underestimating and sneering.

... and running nasty baseless ads.

Ask David Dewhurst how that strategy worked out for him when HE ran against Cruz. :-)

This makes me wonder if Cruz is sitting on his money because he knows he is going to lose in the end, and has other plans for it.

Cruz and groups actually spent $870,000, but still a pittance compared to Bush alone.
