I voted for Ted in the Alabama primary. I wouldn’t do the same today.
Ted jumped the shark when he started to brag about winning voter-less states
He did this to himself
“This is how elections are won in America,” said Cruz.”
There are no, zip, zero, nada, Trump supporters on the NH delegation, a state he won, to the Convention.
Rigged.
The Great Conservative Hope is a fraud so his delegates and supporters should freak.
If they start rubbing cheeto dust on their faces, I would say that would be a defiitive sign. Until then, I don’t think so. Depressed maybe, angry, possibly. Not freaking out yet.
Go with a winner or another year of also-rans.
New Hampshire fight over delegates...
“I think [last Tuesday’s vote] spooked a lot of people,” says Jim Poolman, a North Dakota delegate who had previously committed to a first-ballot convention vote for Cruz.“But I want to be clear, I think the will of the people does mean something, as well. Donald Trump has gotten a lot of support across the country, and just [last Tuesday], winning five [states] is one heckuva showing.” Poolman hedged his support for Cruz by stating he will see how the remaining primaries play out.
Whether you're a Trump supporter or not, allowing party insiders to choose delegates is nothing more than making sure that "outsiders" don't play by the same rules as party insiders and establishment favorites do.
Anyone that falls back on the "them's the rules" BS is a hypocrite that would be screaming bloody murder if the shoe was on the other foot.
They should be getting a bit “torn” - they made a deal to spit on the People and the People have started talking even louder...
(and by the way US seniors, do you realize the Cuban Canadian wants to CUT YOUR SOCIAL SECURITY?? DOES THAT MATTER AT ALL TO YOU????

AND WHY ARE HIS RECORDS SEALED??? HAVE WE LEARNED NOTHING FROM CANDIDATES WITH SEALED RECORDS???

From that perspective, these Cruz delegates could be finding it difficult to understand how it is that they are supposed to not even nominate Trump if he gets to 1237. But that is the plan they are being signed on to apparently.
It's getting pretty weird for sure. I am glad to have this whole tier of "control" exposed. They have nearly ruined the country with their seeming inflexible ideology and "no" votes and "against" votes while not winning a thing. They have made me complicit for far too long and now we are at the point of no return. It isn't enough for me to be one of those who can see the hand basket any more, let's do something already outside of "I told you so" and "I warned you".
I just want all these poached Tedlim delegates to cry sweet tears when a huge chunk of the Tedlims who must be Donelgates for one vote, create the first-ballot win for Trump.
If you Tedlims are smart (and you're not) you'll skip first ballot and vote Trump by acclimation and deny me some Schadenfreude.
Look for a wholesale leaving of delegates from Cruz to Trump.
His supporters now are the freaks.
The good people, who supported Scruz, have left that sinking ship.
