Guess that means that those of us who sincerely are working for Cruz are not real Americans?

So it is beginning to appear that Ted Cruz is the GOPee "anti-establishment" stalking/Trojan horse. In sundance's original analysis, Ted Cruz was supposed to siphon off the "true, consistent Conservative vote" so that JEB! could win. Now they either need Ted to knock off Trump, so JEB! can win, or the will call their chits on Ted and control him.

Interesting theory. As a Cruzer, I could come up with an analogous theory with Trump siphoning off the Conservative vote to knock Cruz off.

He doesnt have to kill anybody just to hang in there, which is all I am saying he will do.

As for Kasich, he is going down, deep down, to the 5% range, in SC.

It wont buy him many votes, but it will keep him in the race.

Too many of the following stories around- too much smoke not to be any fire:

Alumni, roommates, law clerks, former staffers in the George W. Bush campaign and White House (and the president himself), members of Congress and others who have known Cruz — lots and lots of people — consider him socially awkward, nasty, dishonest, a blatant apple-polisher and all-around creepy guy. You can write off a few of these critics as jealous of his success, or liberal antagonists, but all of them? There is something badly amiss here. Cruz, who so obviously lacks emotional intelligence, cannot recognize it, but those closest to him surely must see that something is awry...

The difference is that Donald Trump is not owned by anyone. He made his money in real estate, not finance and stocks. The Bush-Clinton establishment has absolutely no hold over him, and he has the reputation of being absolutely ruthless with people who cross him.

Donald Trump really is a person after the type of Samson: Doesn’t drink, wild hair, chases women, will kill you or your friends if you treat him unfairly, and finally brought down the Temple of Dagon on the Philistines. (Judges 13-16)

I like that pic a ton:

The two of them have been rope-a-doping the rest of the field; the Donald is going to do well in the South, and is already second in Texas if memory serves. While Little Jebbie and Marco (Polo!) Rubio are still in the race, Florida will be Trump's. Carly's out now, Christie said he planned to be on that plane to SC, but he's going to drop out, who is he kidding? Carson spends so little on campaigning, he may wind up trying to stay in by suspending active campaigning, but he's peaked, and that was a few months ago. Kasich did well in a liberal NE state, what a surprise, and his success there diluted any chance for the rest of the not-too-conservative candidates.
