This gives Amnestio the excuse he needs to hang in there til after FL. I think that works in Trump’s favor.

I know. I have a feeling that caucus’ were big time cheating. The only thing Cruz did was be more careful in the cheating.

I think Cruz has about run out of territory. Tuesday should be a good day for Trump.

I hope so. That was the shortest momentum in history. Cruz didn’t even last 12 hours. Lol.

Participation trophy, followed by I am a winner speech from Little Marco.

Congrats, foam boy. So far you’ve won the only state that Reagan couldn’t carry in 1984 and a Commonwealth that allows inmates to vote and has no say at all in November.

You should be proud of yourself, especially next week, when you put the cherry on top of your winnings before you drop out post-Florida....

The DC Primary! Home to about 2,000 votes from lobbyists, government workers and bunch of your friends in the establishment.. You know — the same District that gives the Democrats an automatic 3 EV advantage every election?

Now that’s #winning

Good news that Cruz tied Trump for delegates in LA with 18 delegates each. Cruz had a great Saturday.

I heard all of Trump's votes flipped to Rubio.

Trump really won this one.

No body expected Trump to win that one. I fully expected either Rubio or Cruz for that one. So now Marco gets his second wind and he will stay in the race.

Maybe because Cruz is running as an American and Rubio as a Latino?

Rubio’s stated strategy was to lose all the early states. So far, MN and PR are the only glitches in his strategy.

So basically, the Cruz surge some have been talking about ended one day later. So maybe it wasn’t a Cruz surge.

Rubio took all 23 delrgates - this overtakes the number of delegates Cruz got over Trump yesteday, 16, which was declared a surge by some.

So now I guess it is a Rubio surge? I guess so. And if Kasich does well in Michigan and Ohio, it will then be a Kasich surge?

But it must be a Rubio surge, actually. So Rubio is going to now win Michigan and Florida.

No, it is a Cruz surge. Meaning Cruz is now going to win Michigan and Florida, and Florida is winner take all.

Wow. So Romney is the hero, who stopped Trump. Today on FOX News Sunday he praised Cruz on stopping Trump, and now with the Rubio surge he will praise Rubio on stopping Trump, and then with the Kasich surge he will praise Kasich on stopping Trump, which is very important to the GOPe amnesty agenda. Thank God Romney saved the day, so we can have a brokered convention where Romney has not ruled out his accepting the nomination in a contested convention.

All hail the great hero Romney! All hail the GOPe! All hail the Cruz surge! All hail the Rubio surge! All hail the Kasich surge! Hip hip hurray!
