Don’t get mad if Trump ends up losing because he was either too lazy or didn’t take the process serious enough to put together a legit ground game. But I’m sure you will. And then accuse Cruz of cheating.
== C
Cheaters cheat it’s what they do. Tools and Fools for Cruz.

Cruz has to win 34 or more delegates in NY or be mathematically eliminated from getting to 1,237 delegates going into the convention. His number was 46 at the beginning of the day. I doubt Cruz even gets a single delegate out of NY.

The GOPe and Levin are the only ones threatening to walk ...i’m talking about people who don’t normally vote, but love Trump ...trying to convince them to support Cruz will be a near impossibility ...they can’t stand Cruz or Hellary

How is it cheating of you are playing by the rules? Oh that’s right. Because it doesn’t favor your guy at the moment.

It’s not mathematically possible.

Math must be hard for you.

Besides the fact that it is still mathematically possible for Cruz to catch Trump, no one is mathematically eliminated until someone wins 1237 delegates.

I labeled a person who truly thinks that way to be an idiot.

Only an idiot would pretend that he wasn't calling another FReeper an idiot in that post of yours.

I said he was trying to catch him and you said anyone that thought that was an idiot. PI am just trying to restore some civility to FR.

Cruz! He wants to make the country a police state by going into neighborhoods and spying on all of us. I live in a gated community thank God but I would imagine Cruz would require all cops to have the sticker or code to get to our homes inside the gate. Great. We move to these communities to keep the rift raft out. Now the police will be in all of our neighborhoods all over the country. I didn’t purchase a home in a wealthy neighborhood and pay exclusive property taxes for Cruz to screw us over. And don’t get me started on H1B’s. Cruz has stated he wants minorities in all communities in every district even exclusive ones like mine. NO! NO! NO! Hell my HOA monthly fees probably would make Cruz raise taxes on us due to his liberal economic plan like the VAT. Great now we can buy milk for 6 dollars a gallon. Cruz sucks badly.

I don’t think I can sell Cruz to the people that I got to vote for Trump, even if I try.

Well there's a surprise. And you speak of cults...

The Jones were not churchgoers, so they were being courted by local civic leaders.

Their daughter walked to where her father was mending fence to let her Dad know that Father Murphy was waiting in the parlor.

He said, “Sally. Go back to the house right now and stand in front of the liquor cabinet.”

The next day, she ran to the barn to let him know that a preacher was waiting in the kitchen to talk with him.

“Girl, go count your Mother’s good silver spoons, and wait there for me. Right now.”

On Friday he was under the truck working on the suspension, so she got on her knees and said, “Daddy, a man is at the door and says his name is ‘Ted Cruz’ and wants to talk.”

“Girl, you run as fast as you can, find your Mother and sit in her lap until I get there.”

The people are allowed to vote in the Colorado caucus. Here you can find the rules on how they can.

Take a look and you will see how little it takes. If Trump would stop bragging about how little he had spent and actually built a ground game he may have picked up some delegates in Colorado.

One more time, because your reading and comprehension skills are severely lacking ... the people i’m talking about don’t normally vote, but they like Trump and I made sure they got out and voted for Trump ..how is that a cult ? ...don’t embarrass yourself any further

But he can’t be nominated at the convention. ( he only has 2 state majorities!!) Right?

Wrong. Colorado actually gives him his 7th state majority: Texas, Kansas, Maine, Idaho, Utah, Wisconsin, and now Colorado. North Dakota and Wyoming will give him 9 state majorities once they finish selecting their delegates. Add in likely wins in Montana, South Dakota, Nebraska and Indiana and Cruz will be well past the 8 state limit.
