VANITY: What states would Ted Cruz win in 2016 that Romney lost in 2012?
self ^ | 4/3/16 | self

Posted on 04/03/2016 6:31:03 AM PDT by Eccl 10:2

Would some Cruz people please tell me, and be specific with EV counts, what states would Ted Cruz win that Mitt Romney did NOT win in 2012, and get to a total of at least 270 EV's?

Don't give me national poll percentages. Be specific. Romney got 202 EV's in 2012. Where is Cruz going to get 68 more, state by state? List them, with EV's for each state.

And DON'T ask where Trump is getting 68 more. That is NOT the issue here. Discuss Cruz only.

Cruz could get Virginia if everyone outside of NoVA got out to vote. McAwful will try to prevent that. Right now I don’t see the necessary enthusiasm, but things could change, the campaign has not started.

The question is, what states will Hiliary lose if she’s opposed by someone not more unpopular than her?

Bernie Sanders is beating her after all.

none, because Cruz will never under any circumstances be the nominee.

It’s either Trump at this point

or

McCain, Romney, and Mitch McConnell will pick, and trust me they wont pick Ted.

I don’t believe Cruz won a single Virginia county in the primary.

That is the issue being swept under the carpet by the enemedia; as they did with Obama, they install the Dem candidate as the presumptive winner and work from there.

I don’t believe Hillary will beat Trump; I just don’t see that situation unfolding “on the ground”...

Cruz is a more likely nominee than Trump at this point.

The establishment might not let Cruz win. It’s clear at this point that they are not going to let Trump win, even if he gets to 1237.

I’ve asked this same question to the Cruz trolls in here and I’ve yet to receive an answer. Ted finished 3rd in the three biggies FL, OH and VA. If he only lost one of the he’d lose the general yet the Cruz trolls continue to jump up & down screeching about how ‘electable’ he is. Insane.

Shouldn’t this have been asked months ago, when there were more choices in the race? I can’t see Cruz doing well, Trump would do MUCH worse (women hate him), and Kasich is a liberal. Who do you suggest we support?

Nothing to discuss then, because your question is based on the false assumption that Cruz can be the nominee.

I’m in FL and there is no way in hell he would win this tate.
He enevr won a single cunty in VA so there is not much of a want for him there.

So he looses VA, FL then it is Clintons White house.
\

You do know that cruz could not possible get enough delegates before the convention, and that means he doe snot have enough votes, which means the majority of voters do not want him.

When you come in 3rd in 3 important swing states OH, VA, FL and you can’t even win a single county in VA, FL then it ode snot look for cruz.

Don’t make the generals’ mistake of always fighting the last war.

Is this a trick question? In any case, the likely answer is: zero.

Florida: no chance
Virginia: no chance
Ohio: MAYBE if he picks a Democrat (Kasich) as his running mate
Pennsylvania: no chance
Michigan: no chance
Wisconsin: no chance
New Hampshire and Nevada: very unlikely
Iowa and Colorado: unlikely but slightly possible.
Other hard-core Commie states (such as the Pacific coast & northeast): not even worth mentioning

But a candidate who appeals to more than the Glenn Beck/Mark Levin-worshipping Holy Rollers & Snakehandlers just might be able to pick a few of those off.....

Just said the same.

We have to look at the swing states where the general election is decided.

When cruz comes in third in three of them thus far, and can’t even win a single county in VA, FL then it shows everyone and I mean everyone that there is not much enthusiasm for him outside his small base.

In a similar vein, I guess you also believe the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have a better chance of winning the Superbowl than New England.

Optimism springs eternal!
