Shes going to a contested convention IMHO

We will agree to disagree. Trump will win on the first ballot having received enough pledged delegates thru the primary process.

we shall see but again, why would cruz lay down? Trump wouldn’t. you wouldn’t

Trump is the front runner and has been since July. Why would he lay down. If I were Cruz, I would get out of the race now and call for a unified party to beat Hillary.

A contested convention, his objective since he can no longer acquire enough delegates to win on the first ballot, will destroy the party even if he were successful in getting the nomination. Why would he want to be the nominee of a fractured and divided party that will lose in the general election?

Wouldn't it be better to have the nominee the person who received the most votes in primaries--a record total surpassing any GOP nominee since the primary process began; who has at least 400 more delegates than his closest competitor, and who has won 30 state primaries including FL, IL, MI, PA, CA, AZ, NY, and the entire South except for TX?

What is Cruz's objective?
