Trump is Northeastern guy and LePage is no liberal but Chris Christie, who kissed up to Obama is thorough RINO.

Trump has definite RINO support.

The Cruzbots will trash anyone who endorses Trump. They are so jealous. Don’t forget - Cruz has the Glenn Beck endorsement.

Excellent news. Yes the dominoes are falling. I bet there will be more endorsements in the coming days.

I really wondered if this was about to happen. I can see governors backing Trump. I’m sure Kasich and Haley are jealous Chris Christie beat them out and has an advantage over them for VP. (I hope Trump realizes he shouldn’t pick Christie.) But I also think other governors will be joining Trump’s campaign.

There may also be other congressmen joining Trump but the Senate is a K street country club. For them to seat you, you have to sell your soul to K street. Republican senators also jump into the pocket of the Chamber of Commerce. They aren’t going to let any of their bought and paid for support Trump. See Ted Cruz for example.

It will be people who actually have to administer and accomplish something — governors, versus one time occupants of the backstabbing, kiss Obama where the sun don’t shine, US senate. As the traitor Rubio can tell you, it’s boring there, but you really don’t even have to show up to get paid once they agree to buy you. Not everyone can qualify for their senate (Remember Mississippi), but if you’re willing to put out for them, they will take care of you. You won’t even have to deal with the hoi polloi, little people any more. Just keep dancing to the K street/C of C tune.

Looks like Trumps fellow liberals are lining up behind him.

Tea Party, anti-establishment Governor Paul LePage is considered to be the most conservative conservative governor in the country.

I just remembered. Rubio got Haley’s endorsement.

LOL That's like being named as a contact at the health department.

Paul LePage Urges Maine Residents To Shoot Drug Dealers

“Load up and get rid of the drug dealers,” was the message recently portrayed by Maine Gov. Paul LePage.

The GOPe is caving big time. In a couple weeks Rubio will lose Florida and Kasich will probably lose Ohio. No one will remember their names a week or two after that. Carson will most likely outlast them both. Cruz will probably make it to the convention unless he somehow loses Texas next Tuesday. That would be devastating. I wouldn’t want to be around here if Cruz dropped out, made some type of deal for Attorney General or Supreme Court Justice and then endorsed Trump before the 15th. Now that would be ugly!

Don't forget - Cruz has the Glenn Beck endorsement.

Yeah, that fruitcake who said that God snuffed out the late Justice Antonin Scalia to get voters to support Crus:

Speaking in the voice of the heavenly father, Beck told his audience, "You're welcome. I just woke the American people up. I took them out of the game show moment and woke enough of them up to say, look at how close your liberty is to being lost."

Reverting back to his own voice, the radio host added, "You now have lost your liberty. You replace one guy and you now have 5-4 decisions in the other direction. Just with this one guy, you've lost your liberty so you'd better elect somebody that is going to be somebody on [the Supreme Court]...The Constitution is hanging by a thread. That thread has just been cut and the only way that we survive now is if we have a true constitutionalist."

This isn't the first time Beck and other prominent Cruz supporters have claimed there's some divine power behind Cruz's candidacy.

Last week, Beck praised Ted Cruz as the man who could get America through the rapture.

"Fall to your knees and pray to God to reveal to you what the hour is," Beck proclaimed at a Cruz rally in South Carolina. "This is your last call, America! Stand, stand with the man I believe was raised for this hour, Ted Cruz!"

Someone in Beck's family needs to have an intervention. He is close to that point where he is a danger to himself, perhaps to others as well.

http://dailycaller.com/2016/02/17/glenn-beck-god-brought-about-scalias-death-so-america-would-vote-for-ted-cruz/

And if THAT wasn't enough, Beck is on record as labeling all Trump supporters and specifically Breitbart Chairman Stephen Bannon as "NAZIs" (that was yesterday)

And Ted Cruz has yet to disavow that maniac and disassociate himself from such insane statements.

That speaks tragic and unfortunate volumes about Cruz' judgment.

Not butt hurt, just the truth.

If you actually think that Maine Governor LePage is a 'liberal', that only demonstrates that you wouldn't know the truth if it showed up at your front door, knocked, and had a lapel sticker that said "HELLO, my name is TRUTH".

You better give your head a shake there pal.
