We all have the same goal. Beat the Rats. I don’t bruise easily, so I simply ignore the drivel and pour through threads looking for the tidbits of information that I didn’t know yesterday. My hope is we all move the ball down field together from this point onward. All hands on deck. This is the big one. No more chances. This is our last play. And my prediction, at this time, is a landslide victory in November.

You are becoming a harpy. We are interested in celebrating our fun candidate on this happy evening and your incessant pouts are too time consuming. Get a life, be happy. Kiss off.

You watched the video, where the reporter in question had her hand on Trump’s arm and she was waved away by both secret service and the campaign manager? She said she almost fell but the video clearly shows her face unchanged, no alarm, no pain and her balance never shifts.

There is no halt or jerkiness in the movement of the two men through the room behind Trump, not even a millisecond in which anyone could have grabbed her. Add to that the jacket she was wearing covering her arms which doesn’t work with the claimed bruises and the fact that she and her co-conspirator were forced to resign from Breitbart and I think you come up with a big fat zero from a reporter who has a history of multiple prior unsubstantiated accusations.

Thanks, Kenny. I just kissed her off. She was becoming disruptive.

Primary turnout has no relationship to general election turnout.

Hillary destroys Trump in all the polls and Trump’s the only one less trustworthy or less favorable than her in many polls. He’s the most handicapped candidate we could possibly find to run against her.

Umm, that's the same thing. Notice the first debate the GOP-e demanded Trump sign a loyalty pledge; now William Kristol et al are openly talking about a third party or voting for THE OPPOSING PARTY, *explicitly* and *expressly* to stop Trump.

That's not Trump's fault: it is the chattering class deliberately poisoning the well, and a bunch of people from Texas choosing their loyalty to their state over all else.

Cruz could beat Hillary?

He can’t win in the North or east of the Mississippi.

So far his wins have been in caucus states.

Hasn’t won a single primary so far.

Trump would have to nominate Cruz as V.P. to have any chance in the general. You can’t win without shoring up the base of your party. It would be like if the Dems nominated Jim Webb. His crossover votes from Republicans wouldn’t be nearly enough to make up for liberals who boycott him. What Republican would vote for Jim Webb over a real Republican?

Whoever told you that is stupid. Democratic turnout is extremely low while Republican turnout is beating records everywhere. If Hillary's voters aren't coming out for her now, they won't be coming out at 2012 and 2008 levels like so many of those pollsters keep assuming.

He needs to pick a solid conservative, I agree. Im not sure Cruz would work after all the water under the bridge....

With so many candidates on the ballot, a fringe candidate could win with a mere plurality.

The point of having delegates is so that in the end, the winner HAS to get over 50% support.

U.S. is also a republic, not a direct democracy. We have a system of choosing representatives to represent us, not all of us voting ourselves on every single issue. Even the electoral college reflects that in the general.

Cruz brings TX and the Mountain/Great Plains to the table as a VP candidate?

Big deal. He can’t deliver for Trump a single swing state.

Name one he’s won.

Vice Presidential candidates mean very little, and general election polls, taken at this point, mean nothing.

You are basing your argument on quicksand.

[Trump is] the most handicapped candidate we could possibly find to run against her.

I have a question. Had Trump not run, and Jeb!, pumped up by GOPee$ was the current leader of the pack by some small margin, what would be his chances to beat Hilary in November, by your estimation?

Cruz lost his base to Trump in Arizona, Florida, Missouri, Michigan, etc., and the South in general. Cruz only winning Mitt Romney precincts in some of the past few states with Trump winning all the social conservative and Evangelical areas. Cruz will do well in Mormon Utah because it's a caucus and also because Mormons are really stupid. But there aren't enough Mormons for Trump to lose a general election.

Not true for Cruz not winning primaries. Off the top of my head, he’s won primaries in Oklahoma and Texas.

How long does it take to get the Utah results? I know it was crooked as hell but does that mean they don't have to post results?

Maybe I don’t get it. Mormons are mad at Trump because he didn’t like the unprecedented personal nature of Mitt’s attacks upon Trump.

Maybe they should re-read what Mitt said.

And what did Trump say, Mitt didn’t go on Letterman and Leno and disappeared to build his 9 car garage and let Obama a failed President win. Its all True

Maybe Mormons don’t think Mitt Choked, but its a fair opinion many of us share.

I had great respect for Mormons, we are upset with Mitt going after our front runner like he did. After all my point is that he should be a candidate if he wants to tee off on Trump. Mitt should be in the game and then its appropriate to attack. Otherwise STFU Romney.

This is not an attack on Mormons, don’t you Mormons see Mitt not Mormons is being attacked?
