If you look at the delegates won so far its clear that Trump wins east of the Mississippi and Cruz wins us folks in the fly over country of the west.

Trump has a big problem in the west as he is seen as just another eastern tin horn wanting our support at election and then pretending only the right and left coasts are the only voters that matter.

Trump has definitely flown over me..

“Trump won’t do what you want him to do to get there.”

You don’t know that.

We do know that Cruz proclaimed on national television that if we would give the GOP the Senate he would ensure ObamaCare was revoked...but Cruz lied.

haha, that game has already been played, you are too late.
All the delegates turned off by Little, Marco, curly, dog face, low energy, lyin lyin ted.
On the 2nd ballot it’s game over, put on your big boy pants, let the blovinator whine his way back to NY City, and let’s whip the dems and make things right.
If the mouth wishes to be the immigration Czar or International Trade Czar, I’m cool with that.
If you wish to be a spoiled little child and sit out and take your ball home pouting. I say, Tell yourself thanks for Hillary, Bern or Joe.

I don’t know about that. We kind of liked Trump in Nevada.

Still hawking that old line, huh? I have received similar campaign mailers in the past. Never took them seriously and threw them in the trash.

LOL! As if that was his only sleazy ploy.

Cruz is my senator and has done all he can as my senator to stop obamacare, when Ted wins on the 2nd ballot, I will press him to fulfill that promise and use the idea floating out there which is to allow insurance companies to cross state lines (health, car, life, medical, etc) and drop mandatory insurance for all via tax fines to support others and more than anything STOP the government subsidies for obamacare. Also, stop all renewanle energy subsidies, and ethanol and foreign aid subsidies.

I don’t believe for a second that Trump will rid us of a 20 trillion $ deficit in 8 yrs. Sorry folks that is impossible. BUT, I do believe and I’m sure Cruz believes we can rid ourselves of many departments in the US government.

This may sound funny, but I think we could probably fire 1/2 of the DOJ because they spend 1/2 there time investigating crimes (F & F, emails, immigration), and 1/2 there time CONVINCING THEMSELVES NOT TO PROSECUTE.

****************************************

It’s a little hard to change minds when they are bound to Cruz. The key is getting your bound delegates elected.

Trump’s slate of preferred delegates at CD 7 didn’t even make the ballot, because 2 of them refused to pay the $5.00 fee.

Trumpers never understood it’s the ground game that counts. I don’t think it’s a good idea to refer to voters candidates as dog face, little marco, low energy, pedophile, lyin lyin, WHEN EVERYONE KNOWS THE BIGGEST LIAR IS TRUMP.

Wait. According to many in here Trump wasn’t in Colorado because he knew it was a waste of resources. Now he’s going in. So, which is it?

Did Trump screw up by not going in earlier, or is he screwing up now by going in at all? Gotta be one or the other....

It always is...*s*

Meanwhile, now that Trump has figured out there’s a game to play in Colorado that he’s missed the first six innings of, Cruz’s team is probably on the plane to Pennsylvania to get some licks in before the first inning there.

Just because the Cruz campaign isn’t up to snuff with the rules doesn’t mean Trump is to blame.

The Cruzers shouldn’t complain, these rules have been around forever, and Cruz doesn’t know them?

He better study up, ‘cuz Donald has a much stronger ground game than Cruz.

Two of those four are already in the can. Cruz won all of the delegates.

“If Cruz swept the delegates yesterday, it’s because he was twisting arms yesterday.”

You obviously weren’t at the assemblies you are referring to. He won because the delegates at the assemblies are overwhelmingly in favor of Cruz.
