Cruz is hurt even more by the presence of Kasich. Cruz will stay in until the convention because he wants to put on a big show. He keeps saying he is the only one who can beat Trump, but he is not beating Trump very much. The behavior of the establishment against seems to be helping Trump. The behavior of the media seems to be helping Trump.
The Dems. will help Trump win if Hillary is nominated.

Words do matter, don’t they?

It’s called “populism” now, and it is a dirty word, according to Levin, but it used to mean patriotism, for national security, and for a sound economy.

Not me, the article said it: Derailing Trump will require a big surge from Cruz from here on out. Can he do it?

No the article didn't say it, you said it. You said, "so cruise[Sic] isn't in to win, just to stop Trump."

I can’t believe it. Jim Geraghty wrote a column that doesn’t inform us that Trump is Hitler.

Ted is now seen by ALL appeasing his ambition and restoring the very Establishment he has feigned to deplore to do it.

What action did Cruz take that you would consider appeasement?

No Jim

Where I grew up acting smarter better more pure and more Christian than everyone was not well received

It could get your ass whipped

Most of the Yankee prep school boys got very little real world experience outside of St Albans or Exeter or the mean streets of Georgetown or Back Bay

I despise these effers

Savior? Hardly.

I like Cruz's policies better. Thats all.

I say this fully realizing how boring any discussion of policy is considered around here.

It sure is even here

Many Cruzbots are smelling the coffee and detest the snob attitude

I would not take that shit to my face from weasels like Kristol or Lowery

“Oh you’re better than me huh and I’m stupid?”

Smack!

“Hey Rich...you still better and smarter and more Christian than me?”

“How’s that blood in your mouth taste?....a first for you given yer tony genetics and all”

“You’re lucky I was raised right.....200 years ago I would run you thru”

1237 is the plurality of the total 2,472.

Where does he find 813 more delegates?

They were supposed to come from The South.

Now, Ted’s purpose is destroy Trump’s nomination so that his mega-millionaire donors’ interests and positions of favor will remain status-quo. He needs to ruin Trump’s nomination to enable his own political interests and his establishment cronies will handsomely reward him. - El Cubano de Canadian.

It’s very apparent that they can’t stand our country.

>>I guess Ted is the Cartel, Now<<

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Ouch!

Personally, I wish Cruz & Trump would announce right now that each of them would support the other, if he wins the delegate count . . . but NO OTHER.

I’m sure Trump is feeling around for a deal. Don’t know about Cruz though.
