I don’t think it is a political candidates job to correct bad theology.

Beck represents Cruz; looks like Cruz is a politician first, rather than a genuine Bible Christian; I submit it is anathema to pose as, or allow a false religion to portray one as a prophetic savior in order to win the state of Utah's delegates.

“While Cruz isn’t mathematically eliminated YET, he has no reasonable path to the nomination. There simply aren’t enough delegates left for him to get the nomination.”

There may not be enough left for Cruz to realistically get to 1237, but it is still plausible (albeit unlikely) that he goes into the convention with more delegates than Trump. AZ and UT this week could alter the trajectory — if Cruz pulls off surprise win in closed primary in AZ (and my brother in Phoenix says he’s got a very strong ground game there, as he does just about everywhere) and breaks 50% in UT, the momentum/narrative could shift. And since Trump apparently won’t do any more debates, he would need to depend on his free media to get the momentum back.

Going forward, east coast states obviously are trouble for Cruz, but still a lot of delegates he could pick up in Midwest and western states, with CA obviously being the main prize.

So bottom line: yes, Trump is ahead, but Cruz could still come back. Which is why he (and his supporters) would be crazy to quit now.

Glen Beck believes it and Ted has not disavowed him so it must be true; </sarc>

Cruz is as dirty a politician as there is. Nothing more.,/i>

A conclusion that can be reached only after an incredible twisting of events as they actually occurred.

It is from such fantasies that the gulf separating Trump and Cruz supporters has been fabricated.

Right on altura. If Romney was endorsing Trump you better believe Trump would be singing his praises. It is not going to be a piece of cake for Trump to attain the necessary delegates. Cruz for President 2016

I think what people are saying is that Cruz is an outsider, and he’s being used by insiders to block Trump from reaching 1237. If Cruz were to succeed in blocking Trump, the insiders would then withdraw their support of Cruz, and push one if their own.

If that is true, and the GOP insiders are successful, then true Cruz supporters will only succeed in blocking Trump, but ultimately fail at making Cruz the nominee.

The writing is on the wall and that’s exactly what will happen. Anyone who can’t see it is blind. Probably willfully so as most will go along with the establishment AGAIN and vote for Romney/Kasick.

This poll was three days ago.
Kasich is rising and it is highly likely Cruz isn’t getting 50%.

Any data that Kasich is rising other than you want it to be so?

Polls.
He’s also spending money on ads and time there.
He hates Romney, by the way. Always has.
That’s why he didn’t lift a finger to help him get Ohio last election.
