Report: Ted Cruz Prepares for "Somber Speech" Tonight Aide tells AP if Cruz loses, staffing cuts are likely

He has campaigned hard in Indiana, but a report suggests Ted Cruz is not expecting to win.

An aide to the Cruz campaign whose name was not given told the Associated Press that the Republican candidate is preparing for what the aide called a "very somber" speech at his election watch party in Indianapolis tonight. Though Cruz says he will stay in the presidential race even if he loses the Indiana primary to Donald Trump - and despite his public alliance with fellow candidate John Kasich to stop Trump - the aide told the AP that the Cruz campaign was bracing for immediate staffing cuts "at a minimum."

Remember, it’s not Rafael Cruz’s fault he’s losing. It’s Drudge’s fault. And Fox’s fault. And Donald Trumps fault. And your fault for being such a bigoted low-info voter. Hey, he may be a Hussein Obama prop.

If he wants to skip the speech and just hide under the couch for the rest of the night that would be good.

Cruz will NEVER drop out after the (hilarious) Trump JFK comments. The bad blood between these two families (if you can call Cruz’s creepy collection of freaks a family) is epic. I can’t imagine Cruz ever endorsing Trump now. He Romney, Rove and others will fight Trump till the bitter end.

Naming your cabinet is a somber affair.

Carly can take care of this. She has experience.

Nope. It is the other side that has turned Trump into some kind of shiny Buddha.
