The GOPe is inundating Florida, and Ohio with negative ads against Trump. There's some indication that their deep pockets have swayed undecided voters in recent primaries with saturation ads, causing narrow victories in Louisiana and Kentucky when polls had indicated much larger victories. Florida and Ohio are their last stand.

Levin is invested in Cruz way too deep to switch horses now. Perhaps he’ll get behind Trump after he wins the nomination, but with the way things are going in this election, who knows? We’re going to see things that disturb and amaze us to our cores, before this is all over.

I’m pretty sure the only candidate that beats Hillary in a head to head poll is Cruz... nice thread.

The only person who has taken on the GOPe and won a major race is Ted Cruz.

Rubio, first and foremost, must be vanquished post-haste.

He has. That candidate is TED CRUZ.

Time and time again the polls show that Cruz does better than Trump in the general. He also does better than Trump head to head.

Trump supporters are in denial.

Those bastards. I think they have been reprehensible, and if they aren’t careful, they will alienate whole swaths of voters they ASSUME are on their side. Or maybe they want Hillary to win.

I’ll confess I am less enamored of Levin of late. Yes, he’s highly invested in Cruz and to some extent, I think he overthrashes Trump. So be it. For the most part I’m sick of hearing about this whole election thing. I can’t escape the feeling that this is supposed to be 1: a nation of laws; 2: run by people who cherish it and 3: wish to preserve it. None of those being, is actually in effect, it should be that whomever is elected is not so bloody important. WTF are these people, our saviors?

But regardless of whom you support, Trump or Cruz; if you liked Levin for his principled Conservativism; then you still should. Right? You don’t ordinarily like him for his electioneering, do you?

Just saying/asking.

That person would be Cruz, not Mr. Trump (who is part of the establishment).

What GOPe attacks? They have held their fire and refuse to spend money against Trump. Besides media spin, there is very little evidence the RNC is against Trump. Think about what reality shows do.

I will support a Constitutionally eligible candidate or none.

Mark Levin sells snake oil. I want my money back from those books of his which I bought.

I will refrain from further expressing my vitriolic responses here.

A cure that is as bad or worse than the disease is no solution. Trump does things like repeatedly yell profanities like “Mother F——” from the campaign stage, he openly blasts conservatives and what we stand for from the campaign stage, openly propose one big government program after another and pledges to further increase the powers of the Presidency, constant flip-flopping on the issues, non-stop praise of late for Planned Parenthood, and his big claim to fame - immigration - he’s also phony on as he was an outspoken supporter of amnesty all the way up until just before he announced his candidacy and had previously blasted Romney and the GOP for being too tough on immigration and encouraging moderation on the issue blaming it at least partially for Romney’s loss in 2012. He’s also the only candidate to have opened strip clubs as part of his resume. This is just the tip of the iceberg but that is sufficient to make the point - do you really think this is the appropriate solution?

Trump is the RINO establishment personified and he cannot beat Hillary any more than Romney could.

I couldn’t care less that Trump flip-flopped on deportation, abortion, guns, etc. He’s been a con man and lawsuit-happy nut for his whole life. He is a liberal New York values politician who has lied to conservatives and fewer and fewer are falling for it with each passing day.

Florida and Ohio are their last stand.

Well then Donald Trump had better spend some money on ad buys to respond to these attacks.

Does Trump expect to be unscathed in the face of such reckless hate? If he's too dense to realize that a prompt and aggressive response is needed, then he's not savvy enough to win the nomination anyway.

As much as I want him to succeed, I reiterate my opinion that Donald Trump is running a somewhat inefficient and haphazard campaign. He could be doing much better by showing some discipline and heeding the valuable wisdom of those who advise him, whether it be Sessions, Giuliani, Palin, Gingrich, or whoever.

If Donald Trump relies too heavily on his own ego, he'll be less effective than if he seeks out sage advice. Winning a nomination requires a team of people working along with a candidate, shoring them up where they are weak, and with each individual filling their proper role.

If Trump ran a cleaner campaign, he'd be blowing the doors off of his rivals. Instead, he's made mistakes and is giving them too many opportunities to attack.

No man is an island...

This is why we are called the stupid party. Trump is our only chance to beat the GOP establishment once and for all. Instead we rally around a so-called conservative who voted for TPP and is married to a Goldman Sachs VP.
Cruz should back the hell out and allow the only guy capable of getting 1237. He is just a boat anchor to Trump right now. He has no path to 1237. And he cannot overcome Trumps lead. So what is his motivation?

Now it looks like both Iowa and Texas had a form of voter fraud. As usual, it’s difficult to deal with after election day is over. It has to be stopped while it’s happening, or before it can happen.

This is one advantage the cheaters have.

Get behind Trump why he says ever thing is negotiable. Not trustworthy with all his evolving positions

Levin is exactly right and that man’s name is Donald Trump.
Any man that worked for GW Bush is establishment. His wife works for Wall St. and is part of the establishment and I could care less what Levin thinks or anyone else. Cruz was the main point man on Bush’s amnesty legislation.
