I don’t make statements that are unfounded. Since we’ve all been following polls and cite those that are positive and less likely to stand behind those that are not favorable (even if it is the same company we stood behind when showing positive). Anywho, I’ll provide a cross section of polls taken from both friend and foe sources that pretty much all reach the very same conclusion. Believe it or not, not my intent to force the issue or belief. It’s only my intent to share. We can either unite or divide as many here so gleefully are willing to do. Again dividing, maligning and scorching the earth does not a general win. Take it up with the pollsters

Nothing here more recent than mid-April, I see... and, I also cannot help but note, nothing here which actually goes towards supporting your original point, back in #37: namely, that there demonstrably exists a substantial number of Cruzies so hopelessly far gone in cult-like adoration of their man, that -- like Palestinian suicide bombers -- they are not only willing, but downright eager to suicide themselves, electorally speaking, in benighted "defense" of their chosen Allah.

I see nothing in any of the material provided, in any of your links, to buttress said supposition... and, honestly, is that really what you're telling me what even a bare handful of Cruzies are really, truly like, sanity-wise? Is the argument being presented, "DON'T CROSS 'EM! THEY AIN'T RIGHT IN TH' HAID!", ultimately? Because that approach, historically, has been something of a non-starter. ;)

In the meantime, however, we have the most current, up-to-date findings, more representative of the facts now on the ground:

IT’S OFFICIAL: DONALD TRUMP Breaks Bush Record With Most Votes Ever for Republican Primary Candidate

BREAKING POLL: TRUMP TAKES LEAD and HIllary Clinton’s Negatives Surpass Trump Look: American politics, particularly at the presidential level, is a rough game; and fans, as well as politicians, simply need to wear cups. Any Cruzie who feels they simply haveta gotta either actively vote for Cankles, or else simply stay home and sulk, absolutely has my full and absolute blessings to do precisely that, if their nerves simply cannot bear up under the typical every-four-years jeering and catcalling any better than that. If you, personally, feel it worth your time and effort to watch 'em tantrum, between now and then... mazel tov. More power to you, sincerely. Better you than me. Etc., etc.

MY POV, contrariwise, remains that the majority of Cruzies out there aren't gibbering, self-destructive maniacs; and that, if they genuinely ARE as adamantly super-ultra-conservative as they claim to be, will crawl over broken glass and used hypodermic needles in order to keep Baba Yaga Clinton out of the White House. Period, full stop, end of.

Sounds to me as if I'm actually giving them more credit, ultimately, than you are, doesn't it...?

Something to think about, I daresay.

Do you think the idiots in Texas are going to vote this creep back in? Lord I hope not. I know you think Cruz is trash to which is awesome. So proud of you.

You are aware that many of the sites you gave supporting your theory that people will sit out the election are very old ones from when Cruz was still actively not covertly running. One was even Slate.
