With all due respect to Cruz this just doesn’t wash. He is winning very predictable states and mostly caucuses. There hasn’t yet been one shred of evidence thus far in 2016 that Ted has brought in anyone new at all. Trump is doing that. Trump is winning the northeast (save for tiny Maine) and the south as well!

Harry Reid is a Trump supporter. I am simply amazed at how “conservatives” are getting behind this liberal business man.

With all due respect to Trump, he is pulling in poll numbers, but not votes. Trump underperforms his polling almost ever time. (Possibly buying polls? It would explain things.) Cruz was supposed to win only TX by the polling, and he has won AK, IA, KS, ME, OK, and TX. KS was polling Trump 35-29 on 3/3, and ended 23-48 Cruz on 3/5. That's massive... a 31 pt swing in two days.

Trump folks like to pretend that caucuses (caucii?) are somehow just cabals of a few politically-connected voters, but the only actual difference is that primaries are secret ballots while caucuses allow open discussions, mostly meaning fewer hours for the polls to be open. That's all... and OKL is a primary state that was polling 32-20 Trump on 2/28, and ended 28-34 Cruz on 3/1... an 18 pt swing in 2 days among 450,000 voters in a primary state

More importantly, Trump is polling behind Hillary, and he has yet to outperform a single poll by more than the margin of error.

The same with the Rubio campaign and the Kasich campaign. All three are drawing from the same pool of voters.

Also, Trump is appealing to all demographics.

Yep. And for the 10,000 time in this campaign ME Too Teddy jumps on the coat tails of Trump and attempts to coop Trump’s message.
