Maybe they don’t want Bill. Prior to an Indiana campaign appearance by Bill Clinton, some singers warming up the crowd tried to lead a “We want Bill” chant. They struggled to get any sort of reaction from the audience.

Donald Trump holds a 15-point lead in the Republican presidential primary in Indiana, and a majority of GOP voters disapprove of the effort by underdogs Sen. Ted Cruz and Gov. John Kasich to coordinate strategy to block him, a new Wall Street Journal/NBC News/Marist Poll finds.

Donald Trump holds a 15-point lead over Ted Cruz in the potentially decisive May 3 presidential primary race in Indiana, according to results from a new NBC News/Wall Street Journal/Marist poll. Trump gets support from 49 percent of likely Republican primary voters – followed by Cruz at 34 percent and John Kasich at 13 percent.

(Daily Caller) Heidi Cruz opened up a potential line of attack for Donald Trump on Saturday when she told a campaign crowd in Indiana that her husband can unify the Republican party because he is an immigrant. “Ted is an immigrant. He is Hispanic. He can unify this party,” Cruz told an audience in Greenfield, according to the Washington Examiner’s Byron York. The Texas senator was born to a Cuban father and American mother in Canada in 1970 but moved to Texas several years later. And though Cruz is an American citizen because his mother’s nationality, Trump has used his...

CBS: Senator Cruz says he wants to debate your father mano a mano one on one. Donald Trump Jr.: Senator Cruz has spent his whole life just trying to debate. The problem is he's unrelatable. People don't like him. He's never created a job in his life other than lobbyist. Excuse me, he's created a lot of lobbyist, a lot of special interest, they have their jobs because of Senator Cruz. But he's never signed the front of a paycheck. My father's created tens of thousands of jobs. He employs tens of thousands of people to this day. Those...

Poll Reading: National poll: Half of Republicans support Trump

Bernie Sanders says conditions in Baltimore no better than North Korea, West Bank By Linda Qiu on Thursday, April 28th, 2016 at 5:06 p.m. Residents of some Baltimore neighborhoods are no better off than people living in impoverished North Korea and the violent West Bank, Bernie Sanders said during a campaign rally in Maryland ahead of that state’s primary. "Poverty in Baltimore, and around this country — poverty is a death sentence," Sanders said April 24. He then laid out some rather unflattering and harsh comparisons: "Fifteen neighborhoods in Baltimore have lower life expectancies than North Korea. Two of them...

"Fox News can’t say they were not warned this would be an outcome of their insufferable decision to continue promoting a media narrative in opposition to Donald Trump. The same thing happened to Macys Department Store after they dropped Trump."

I had the privledge today of serving as a Arizona State Convention Delegate. The meeting was long and disorganized but we got the job done. I promised on a previous thread to post names of Delegates and who they support or which slate they appeared on if known. The following lists are taken from the AzGOP website and my notes. If I am not sure who they support, I will leave that spot blank. Please feel free to post corrections. Follow the link to view the lists in an easier to read format.

BURLINGAME, Calif. — Ted Cruz is speaking confidently about knocking off Donald Trump to take the GOP nomination, but his top staffers admit they’re getting nervous. In interviews, several aides, speaking on the condition of anonymity, expressed growing alarm that Cruz would lose Indiana’s primary on Tuesday — an outcome that would be a major blow to his hopes of holding Trump below the 1,237 delegates needed to clinch the GOP nomination on the party convention’s first ballot. The aides concede that, without a win in an Indiana primary where 57 delegates are at stake, Cruz’s shot at the nomination...

A Burlingame man wearing a red "Make America Great Again" ball cap decided to walk through a group of protesters outside the California GOP Convention in Burlingame.

Ted Cruz lies and savages a friends bill without warning or reason. He lost his only friend in the senate. Read the whole thing.

Upset that Donald Trump received just a handful of statewide delegates during an electronic vote, his Arizona campaign manager is threatening to sue the Arizona Republican Party. "This stinks to high heaven!" Jeff DeWit shouted at reporters, decrying the results of the at-large delegates. He suggested the website Arizona Republicans used to choose delegates for this summer's national GOP convention, NeverHillary.SimplyVoting.com, was rigged. He offered proof in terms of a screen shot that suggests statewide delegates clicked on a slate supporting Trump. "People clicked the trump button more than any other and we got hosed," he said. Former governor Jan Brewer, a national...

<p>President Obama took aim at Donald Trump, Ted Cruz and the Republican establishment tonight in his hilarious final White House Correspondents' Dinner speech - and he even saved some ammunition for Hillary Clinton.</p> <p>Before he tore apart the GOP candidates, Obama brought up his former Secretary of State's speeches to Goldman Sachs as he contemplated what he might do to make money after leaving the White House.</p>

But the point is that the media has ceased their primary objective of destroying Republicans when it comes to Trump. And instead they're propping him up. And the reason they are doing it is the media landscape is changing so fast. It's becoming so compartmentalized, it's becoming so niche that attracting massive, big audiences anymore is not possible because there's just too much competition. There are too many places people can go for news, their Facebook feed for many people is their primary news source, for example. But you can now stream whatever you want on your phone or your...

What if you were running for president of the United States and nobody showed up to your rally? Well, after countless pathetic turnouts at his rallies, Ted Cruz just suffered another major blow. That's right, while Trump's rally was jam packed with well over 10,000 and probably more patriots, Cruz's rally had a paltry 200- give or take. LMAO! Pathetic! Check it out! Quite a difference huh? Look, Trump will be our next president. Cruz doesn't stand a chance in hell. Now, I will point out that if Cruz were the nomination, I would back him 100% because I don't...

A Donald Trump presidency wouldn’t be the blow to U.S. business that some fear, according to Warren Buffett, chairman and chief executive of Berkshire Hathaway. “If either Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton becomes president, and one of them is very likely to be, I think Berkshire will continue to do fine,” Buffett, 85, said at the company’s annual shareholders meeting Saturday in Omaha. The outcome of November’s presidential election is unlikely to change the fact that the United States is a “remarkably attractive place in which to conduct a business,” said Buffett, who in December endorsed Clinton (D) at a...

Trump is ramping up his rhetoric against Hillary Clinton as the GOP front-runner looks beyond the primary to defeating the likely Democratic nominee in the fall. If Trump and Clinton continue along their current trajectories, it will set up a savage battle between two candidates who appear to genuinely despise one another. Nothing will be out of bounds. Foreign Policy Trump lashed out at Clinton on national security and defense in his much-anticipated foreign policy speech in Washington this week. The GOP front-runner said that “the legacy of the Obama-Clinton interventions will be weakness, confusion and disarray.” 'Crooked Hillary' Trump’s...

With a #NeverTrump hashtag and a growing list of high-profile people and groups declaring that they will never support Donald Trump as the nominee of the Republican Party, the effort to block Trump from winning the nomination is gaining force. But former House Speaker Newt Gingrich on Tuesday previewed what he said will be the single most effective argument for strong-arming anti-Trump Republicans back into the fold if he is the nominee. "You are either going to elect Hillary Clinton who will, I think, be the most corrupt president in American history, or you're going to help elect Donald Trump,"...
