"...The primary problem with Cruz is that he has no realistic chance of winning against Hillary or any other Democrat candidate..."

And national polling (RCP *average* of polls) shows trump consistently losing to both Clinton and Sanders by even larger margins. But you would, inexplicably, refuse to say that trump "has no realistic chance of winning against Hillary or any other Democrat candidate" despite his horrible polling head to head against Clinton and Sanders. Am I right?

"...Ted would need to win approximately 90% of the remaining delegates to get to 1237..."

I've never asserted Cruz could get to 1237. Haven't even hinted at it. Kasich either. Again, I can keep explaining it to you trump-pets, but I can’t understand it *FOR* you. Cruz or Kasich are BESIDE the point, which is that trump consistently loses over half the electorate. If you have educated yourself on “contested” vs “brokered” elections, then you are smart enough to understand what that entails for all remaining candidates at the convention. If trump can’t convince over half the electorate to pledge him over half the delegates, then he is not *entitled* to the nomination. If he wants it, he has to earn it. So far, he’s *not* earning it. He’s winning primaries in a crowded field and all that will get him is a contested primary. Righteously contested too.

"...longer that you waste your time and energy chasing moonbeams in this election the more bitter and delusional you are going to become..."

Wrong, regardless of who ultimately gets the nomination, I'll hold my nose and vote for whichever candidate opposes the dem. I don't care which it is, as I've already voted in my primary *for* Cruz. And I won't be anywhere near as bitter and delusional, if not homicidal, that you trump-pets are going to be when the GOPe snatches the nomination away from trump in a brokered convention and hands it, gift-wrapped with a big bow on top, to Kasich because you failed to garner the needed delegates outright. You trump-bots need to get to work on your beloved, recently reformed democrat and start begging him (and your fellow trump-pets) to reconsider your piss-poor "bedside manner". All you rubes voting out of rage are in the minority, evidenced by the majority of voters who are voting for anyone other than trump (back full circle, trump is currently rejected by over half the electorate, #NeverTrump, etc.). If you think he can arrive at a contested/brokered convention and claim entitlement to the nomination, the bastards in the GOPe will horse-laugh you and trump will be left to flail his pudgy little fists in civil court, and the GOPe will make sure he fails there too...

I am assuming that you are smart enough to realize that the only reason that the GOPe such as Mit are currently flocking to Cruz is to try and prevent Trump from getting enough delegates to avoid a brokered convention. If that happens there is almost no chance that these same people will make any effort to get Cruz the nomination. He is being used, he know it and I find his comments that he believes that he has serious chance to become the nominee to be disingenuous.

As far as the polls showing that Cruz would do better against Clinton... they defy common sense and there are other polls that show the opposite. At this point Cruz's role in the primary is the same as Kasich’s. He is a spoiler for the GOPe, just with more delegates. If he wants anything out of this other than a failed bid president... his best bet would be to start talking with Trump. ForN
