Cruz denies an Indiana loss would end campaign

Republican presidential hopeful Ted Cruz said on Sunday he would continue his campaign if he lost the critical Indiana primary on Tuesday.

"If you don't win in Indiana under these circumstances, is this race over?" asked "Fox News Sunday" host Chris Wallace.

"Of course not," Cruz said. "It's going to be a battle to see who can earn a majority of the delegates elected by the people at the convention. And the reason Donald is so frantic to say the race is over ... is because Donald knows he cannot earn a majority of the delegates that were elected by the people.

Baghdad Bob was but a rookie, it's this guy that's more practiced in his deceptions and denials.

[Gluteus Maximus]

I love Cruz but he’s starting to tick me off.

[Psalm 144]

“Baghdad Bob was but a rookie, it’s this guy that’s more practiced in his deceptions and denials.”

Baghdad Bob was a propaganda minister doing his job. “Ted” (not his real name) Cruz has the advantage of psychotic episodes while reciting his narratives.

Is he trying to pull a Ron Paul?

Cruz ought to be a symbol of how gullible some people literally are. There is nothing conservative about Cruz.

He's like Bob Wiley in What About Bob:

Dr. Leo Marvin: You think he's gone? He's not gone. That's the whole point! He's never gone!

[ObozoMustGo2012]

This kind of rhetoric leads me to believe there is more than just bribery to the shenanigans Cruz will play leading up to the convention

[Mariner]

He doesn't tick me off at all. He's irrelevant.

But I do marvel at his delusions and deceptions.

The whole "Stop Trump" GOP coalition has become a farce for the ages.

You just can't make this shit up.

He’s really going too far.
I thought Yeb!’s flameout was epic......

Best What About Bob movie reference ever!

And a liar, fake conservative. Obama II

You have to parse it carefully, like a lawyer: "It's going to be a battle to see who can earn a majority of the delegates, elected by the people, at the convention".

It doesn't matter who gets the most delegates AWARDED. What matters is who gets the most delegates, at the convention, to vote for him.

Cruz and the GOPE have been very busy working to ensure that as many DELEGATES as possible, whether or not "bound" for Trump, are really Cruz people. They will work hard to figure out a way to deny Trump a first ballot win, even if they destroy the party as a result.

He thinks he is the one.
He will try a third party run after he reneges on his rule 41 commitment. But....
Trump can win even if the party splits.

Ted is an invader sent on a mission to destroy our Republic.

[Awgie]

Earth to Cruz, its over. It was never going to happen. Stop wasting everyone time! Dont you have a job? I guess U.S. senators are over priced irrelevant lawyers. Arent you needed some where, like DC where you were elected to work for your state.
