Anyone interested in starting a ping list for the FR Caucus discussion thread?

It would stimulate a lot more conversation if more caucus participants knew where to find it each day.

Let me know,

I have a question: When do the Cruzers vote? Right now there are 60 odd votes with only 5 Cruzers. Are they stealth voters who vote at 3 a.m.? Just curious.

[sargon]

Trump still looking strong in the FR caucus at above 4-to-1 over Ted Cruz. It had been about 3-to-1, but when Cruz jumped the shark a week ago Friday after the organized thugs criminally disrupted the Donald Trump rally, Cruz began to lose support from among his own people.

Cruz's loss of support occurred almost instantly in the immediate aftermath of his weak and tone-deaf speak, with showed both a distinct lack of leadership as well as unprincipled, naked opportunism.

Had Ted Cruz instead been a statesman that night, he might very well have helped himself with the electorate. Instead, he lost 300,000 (three hundred thousand) Twitter followers virtually overnight.

He doesn't seem to have recovered from that as yet.

It was a pivotal moment in Cruz's campaign, eclipsing only the moment when Cruz, completely disingenuously, shamelessly played the race card against Donald Trump several days earlier.
