how many electoral votes does Drudge convey? How about delegates? I believe how it works is that the popular vote is a forerunner, depending on the states they came from, as a barometer of the number of electoral votes you might garner.
Cruz LOST NY last night and if he cold carry California that would be an election miracle.
My point: Only Trump has the crossover appeal to WIN those States.

Actually those were two separate issues....Cruz definitely put Trump back on his heals on the birth issue.....and he showed it. Trump took it in the New York issue by raising 9/11...not much Cruz could say in response.
No doubt they both did well in the debate...which was by far the best we've seen yet.

The only thing that has been demonstrated is that your oh-so-delicate sensitivities prove that you're a pretender, nothing more.
Here, try educating yourself:

And an excerpt:
"Confederate units composed principally of West Virginians included the 22nd, 31st, 36th, and 62nd Virginia infantry regiments; the 26th, 30th, and 45th battalions of Virginia infantry; the 8th, 16th, 17th, 18th, 19th, and 20th Virginia cavalry regiments; and Bryanâs, Chapmanâs, and Lowryâs artillery batteries. West Virginia Confederate soldiers fought in most of the battles east of the Mississippi, including Gettysburg, first and second Manassas, Antietam, and countless lesser skirmishes.
It is difficult to determine the number of Confederate soldiers from West Virginia. Records were destroyed when the Confederate capitol at Richmond burned, and regimental rosters were captured or destroyed in battle. For decades the most often quoted number of West Virginia Confederates was 7,000. More recent research, using sources such as the Compiled Service Records, shows that 16,000 to 18,000 men from West Virginia fought for the Confederacy.

Now go hide under your purty pink parasol before you get a case of the vapors from any more (*gasp*) raw language.

Refute the data sources that were provided.
Your straw man about West Virginia NOT being in the Confederacy is only partially accurate, the residents of that new state were divided, thousands of them fought for the Confederacy, and that in turn means that the Southern DNA that you claim to have 9 generations worth, is alive and well in the Mountain State.
Don’t mess with the bull unless you want to get the horns.

so now you’re using the RINO “must nominate a moderate” GOP e argument for Trump.
Of course you are. He’s left of the establishment over all. It’s all you have, tho you are loathe to admit it, even to yourself.

"Lol" hides a multitude of problems.
And yes, you may need one..........
To: Cincinatus' Wife
When Trump's bogus charges against Cruz's eligibility to be president were raised, For the life of me I can't understand why anyone thinks this is an "attack" on Cruz. My gawd FR and tons of others questioned Obama's credentials and it ONLY stopped when he was forced to produce a bogus birth certificate. And Obama was supported by the entire Democrat and Republican party as well as the media.
Cruz is hated by ALL 3 of them. Of COURSE they are going to go all out on this issue. It's a fricking given.
