Typical Tedlim thread management - ignore the neutron bomb in the middle of the thread but continue to bump your embarassing vanity...which I will gladly do...
The media is about ratings, so a contested convention is a gift wrapped present for them.
This could be cut off at the knees if Cruz and K-sick drop out and endorse Trump, but they are too invested in their own image and egos.
I detest those two.
Anyone who think the MSM is somehow FOR Trump needs to watch Major Garrett (formerly of Fox News, now with CBS). Everytime this guy discusses Trump, he can’t help but hide his sense of condescension. I don’t think it’s an act (though—apparently his time at Fox News WAS an act).
Its time for you to face the reality that Cruz lost. There’s nothing he or you can say or do that is going to change that. It will become even more apparent that Ted is done on Tuesday night. Nothing is going to reverse this trend.

Some of you allow the enemedia to set the narrative for you way, way too much.
It’s like the enemedia’s narrative of Donald Trump strictly being a democrat and liberal which has been vetted to death here and turns out that is not so. Yes, he gave to candidates of all flavors as a BUSINESSMAN but the media tried to use that to tie directly to the democrats only, which turned out was not true.
Too many people, even here, bought in to their deceptive narrative.
The answer is to completely tune out the enemedia because they are NOT friends of freedom and liberty.
Oh and Cruz and the establishment is DONE! Time to rally behind Donald Trump and his Pro-American platform (the enemedia will refuse to tell you that).

LOL!!
I would argue that Trump's best chance for the nomination, if he doesn't make it on the first ballot, is a Trump-Cruz deal. I would also argue that the best chance for Cruz to gain from this very ugly primary year is a Trump-Cruz deal.
I would love to see Cruz on the Supreme Court, and I suspect most conservatives who are not wallowing in anger at him would agree. I would also like to see Trump with the local and state organizations needed to win in November. The party will not help Trump with that, they'd rather lose, but a motivated Ted Cruz could do it better than anyone else alive. It's almost deal making time for the two of them.
At this point even Fox News is getting Trump to 1237 by June 7th. Only hard core Cruz kool aiders are still talking contested convention. Its not happening folks.
Debbie Wasserman spin, spin, spin this woman is nauseating!!!!!
Yes Debbie Blabbermouth Schultz is without doubt on the most obnoxious list. LOL!
Cruz will NEVER drop out his ego will not allow it, after all he does believe HE IS the smartest person in the room!!!
I invite you to look at any thread you want on FreeRepublic. The first post is part of the original posting and the tagline doesn’t attach.
It’s a standard convention.
I’m not being dishonest.
You’re wrong about the facts.
But. Consistent with the demonization of those that don’t agree with you, I won’t hold my breath for an apology.
Sen. Cruz will do what’s in his best interest to win the White House, now or in the future. If he believes his current efforts are futile, he’ll hold his powder for next time.
When I donated to Cruz the day he announced, I did so realizing it might take more than one run to win.
I think Bernie takes it to the convention just for the fact he has so much support and $$$ from so many people. He is going to have to play nice though. Bernie and Donald both have the power to destroy their respective parties.
With Ted Cruz exposing himself that he will do anything to help the corrupt establishment, he is damaged goods, and at this point, there will NOT be a next time. You are going to have to eventually deal with this fact.

If that’s true, than I do apologize.
"Ignore the earlier narrative I was pimping, this is what I really meant by burying the lede."
Trump easily gets 1237 and Cruz is a distant memory by California”
My assessment and hope also.
