Cruz and Kasich apparently believe voters are like pawns on their chessboard they can move around at will.

The cynicism is mind-boggling.

This is not “NEW”!” It’s been the plan since August for crying out loud. The GOPe will install Kasich as their nominee this summer!

It kind of reminds you of Patton storming through France and the Germans kept falling back to establish a line.

Or like Robin Williams about Kadafi in the 80s.

“This is a ‘Line of Death’, you cross it, you die!”

“Ok. you cross this line you die.”

“Cross this line, you die.”

“Alright that’s it, you come knocking on my door, I’m not coming out....nyaah!”

Jenny, that was the first thing I thought of when I read that press release from the Cruz camp. Cruz and Kasich know they are out for VP. At this point I think it’s starting to look like a Trump/Rubio ticket.

Collusion is often illegal in many other industries and yet these two Washington insiders have had to revert to collusion in order to stay alive. They are mathematically dead and this act only shows, as puppets of donors and special interests, how truly weak they and their campaigns are. I have brought millions of voters into the Republican primary system and have received many millions of votes more than Cruz or Kasich. Additionally, I am far ahead of both candidates with delegates and would be receiving in excess of 60% of the vote except for the fact that there were so many candidates running against me.

Hey...if the Cruz campaign makes a promise, it's good as gold!

If you don't believe me, asdk Gov. LePage!

Too little, too late.

They should really get out for each other but they won’t.

You have two pathetic loser politicians desperately trying to halt the Trump juggernaut.

Good luck with it.

*Giggle*

Who’s promised who their delegates?

Presumably, stupid, trusting Kasich has thrown in with Cruz for the VP spot!

LOLOLOLOLOLOL.

We’re constantly told and always reminded that Ohio is needed to win the presidency!

Well, I think we’ll just see about that, when Mr. Trump is the GOP Nominee and he carries New York!

How much will Ohio matter, Governor Kasich and most despised Senator of all?

Rubio is classier than Cruz or Kasich, and he's a solid conservative, except about leniency concerning invaders who have acclimated to a positive life in the US. That disgusting Cuban tag-team against Trump in the debate? It seems that it was inspired by Cruz, then Cruz piled on to use it to get Rubio out of the race.

Those 170 Rubio delegates could save the nation (I'm not exaggerating). And I do think both Trump and Rubio are patriotic, USA-first guys. Cruz and Kasich?....not so much.

Fingers crossed.

Trump/Christie Trump/Rubio

Christie would be a great choice. I think Rubio was played by the GOP. He has been strangely quiet. He is weak on amnesty but strong in other areas. Both would be an asset to a Trump administration.

Two people, Kasich and Cruz, trying not to lose by doing the bidding of the GOPe in hopes one of them will be anointed should Cruz and Kasich succeed in stopping Trump..

If either were to be appointed the nominee over Trump they would go down to the worst defeat in history topping Mondale in 1984. The Republicans would also lose the House and Senate.

Leaders do not sell their soul for a few pieces of silver nor a fiefdom in a far off land. Leaders rally the people to their ideas and the voters want them to lead. Trump is a leader. He will roll up more followers from the ranks once he defeats the GOPe and all sixteen of his opponents. Most were simply plants for Bush who failed miserably.

Of his opponents, Carson seems honorable, Christie is an ally, and Rubio is worth teaching. Huckabee, while GOPe, has a respect for Trump’s efforts.

I have contacted by phone my friends in Indiana. Most are eithe Trump or torn between Trump and Cruz. They all once liked and supported Cruz and are unhappy in his transformation. However, some still see him as the purist candidate for social issues. To them social issues are of most import.

Lyndon Johnson was a doosh bag and a bad person.

A person told me exactly where he supposedly urinated on the SS agent’s shoe on the side of the road. I believe it.

Johnson City should be renamed to something less offensive, like North Marble Falls, or something.

Cruz and Kasich apparently believe voters are like pawns on their chessboard they can move around at will.

That seems to be the attitude of the OneWorlders, in fact books have been written by them calling the world a chessboard, so...

You have to love their plan.

They are conceding they are the losers in the race and now their pitch to voters is:” Hi! I’m Ted Cruz. Vote for me to lose!”

They have gone mad.
