“Trump started with 16 rivals and has consistently won states from day one.”
Ted started out with the same number of rivals, yet has consistently trailed Trump throughout the race. He’s done we’ll in caucus states where his ‘secret army’ could twist the arms of small numbers of attendees, but he’s performed dismally in straight primary states.
Ted’s got a moral test on his hands. Does he stay in, knowing that he has no chance of capturing the nomination fair and square, but also potentially stopping his chief rival of doing the same? Or, does he get out now, and prevent the party insiders from taking the process away from the people?
I hope Ted chooses wisely.
Ted has already chosen.
He is no outsider, nor is he a principled conservative.
This will all become even more evident in a short time.
