ed Cruz will grab an upset win over Donald Trump in Arizona's presidential primary election on Tuesday, as he's the "only candidate with any kind of organization out here," a close confidant of Sen. John McCain predicts.

"They have him positioned to spring the upset," Kurt Davis, a GOP operative in Arizona, told The Hill. "They just have to deliver."

The GOPe is whoring themselves out to Cruz, not the other way around. Cruz has all the cards and now has the strength to get his entire conservative agenda passed by Republicans, who will owe him big if he defeats Trump.

Trump isn’t a natural conservative, he just pretends to be one on TV when he’s not engaging in corporate, crony capitalism as a member of the billionaire donor class.

One remark and I'll leave. But I would observe that Marco Rubio said the same thing here, about Florida. In the end it appears that he took Miami-Dade County where I am, because of his roots here, but LOST every single other (66 of them) county in the state. Just sayin'. Bye, y'all.

So “Trumpette” qualifies as polite to you?

Told you you’re insane.

If they stick to the rules, Cruz and Trump will be the only ones allowed to compete at the convention for the nomination, with majority of delegates in 8 states (Cruz is pretty likely to make it to 8 or 9 with Kasich in, many more with Kasich out). Even if they roll back the requirement to 5 which it was before, they’ll still be the only ones.

Four right now, correct? Utah is a BIG one for Ted. If Kasich denies him that one, well, that will leave a mark at this point in the campaign. Your statement would automatically be edited to 7 or 8, ouch. Pretty iffy.

But an online caucus? You would have to put that into the bag for Cruz, right? No way he isn't going to win that small of a caucus style deal, I think he will get this one done with Mitt's help. For the record, Cruz was smart to accept Mitt's "endorsement" or whatever it was, Utah is too important to him as a potential 40(b) state.

LOL!

True!

McCain used up all his Brownie points for being a POW back in 87 with The Lincoln Savings and Loan issue.

An honorable man would have retired at that point.

Cruz has as good of a chance at winning the general election as Kasich has at legally winning the primary , if that puts it in perspective ...

People have sex.

Other people try to impugn them on internet forums by making unfounded accusations and trying to use them as a weapon against them, thus making low class trash out of themselves like you.

Get your mind out of the gutter, Jones, you pervert loser.

However, if nobody achieves a majority on the first ballot, I believe Rule 40b goes by the board -- and anybody can be nominated.

"'They just have to deliver.'

Sounds like they are very, very, confident..../s"


It almost sounds like the McCain advisor is saying, "if Cruz gets enough votes, he will win".

“This is a Ted Cruz thread. Trumpette snide comments to a minimum please. “

But you’ll “allow” SOME snide remarks right? Just not too many? Do you have a percentage in mind? And what happens if the “allowed” percentage is exceeded? Do you “unfriend” the excess snide commenters or what?

And you do know that by requesting a “minimum” of snide remarks, you’re guaranteed to receive the “maximum” number of snide remarks instead, right?

And finally, I’m pretty sure my comment will be counted as “snide”, so my only question is whether MY snide comment is the one that caused the “minimum” number to be exceeded, in other words was comment the snide comment straw that broke the snide camel’s back?

RE:


Do you remember "the popular, if macabre, playground ditty ('Pray for the dead and the dead will pray for you!')" which kids would sing to the music of Chopin's "Funeral March"?   Maybe you could modify the kids' playground version just a bit for these current circumstances...



"Pray for the Ted and the Ted will pray for you!"
