So he is fine working with Graham, Bush, Romney, or whoever. He will sell his soul to ANYONE, even the most evil, vile, radical leftists IF it will help him "win".

You offer no evidence whatsoever that Cruz is selling his soul. What positions has Cruz changed?

And you offer no criticism of Trump "working with" Christie, Julie Annie, Scott Brown and Ben TPP Carson, and whoever he's meeting with this week.

But the people he thinks he is using, are really using him.

And you assume that the GOPe is using Cruz instead of the other way around, where Cruz is using the GOPe.

No, I said they are using each other. But, ultimately, who has more power? Ted Cruz? Or the GOP-e? Ted Cruz is NOT going to get the magic number of delegates before the convention. Even he knows that. Just like Kasich knows he won't. The GOP-e has played several of the candidates already to further THEIR agenda, and the power-hungry politicians have played the willing victim THINKING (or trying to convince themselves) that it is in their best interest.

Marco Rubio. Classic case. He was told to go all "Don Rickles" on Trump. He obviously was told this would take down Trump and boost him up. That he would be known as the man who took Trump down, get the credit and the nomination. THAT was what they sold him. He bought it hook, line and stinker. But anyone who taken Politics 101 KNOWS that if you viciously attack another candidate, it MAY bring that opponent's numbers down but it will ABSOLUTELY bring YOUR numbers down.

The establishment knew that Marco's numbers would fall big time, NOT go up as he was told. They didn't care if his numbers cratered. They just wanted to use him as a sledgehammer against Trump. They tried but it didn't really hurt Teflon Don too much. But it ended Rubio's political career. The establishment could care less. They used Rubio and then tossed him out like last week's trash after he used up his usefulness.

Now, it's comical watching the GOP-e court Cruz and Kasich simultaneously. They are just 2 more tools that will thrown out the second they are no longer needed.

Kasich thinks he is helping to cause a contested convention and that he will be the anointed one because he says he's the most Presidential and that the "polls" give him the best chance to beat Hillary.

Yes, Cruz thinks that he is using the GOP-e for his purposes, AND THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT THEY WANT HIM TO THINK. Just as they want Kasich to think the same thing.

Cruz thinks that if he can keep Trump from clinching the nomination before the convention that he will win a contested convention simply because he will be in 2nd place. He figures, well if we deny Trump, I'm next in line!

What a joke, if they can deny the #1 vote getter, they will have NO PROBLEM denying it to #2. What is Ted's argument going to be? Hey, I'm #2!? LOL They will say, Yeah, and Trump was #1 - what is your point? You helped us deny him the number of delegates he needed to clinch. Thanks for playing. Now run along.

I can hear all of contested convention B.S. already - "Well, it's not about who had the most or 2nd most delegates going in...it's a whole new ballgame! It's a chance to "re-set!" To start over! Forget all that's happened so far, let's start fresh and pick someone who represents all of us, can reach out to everyone, can be Presidential, is not extreme...blah, blah, blah.

It's really fairly obvious what is going on here.

I could talk about several that he has changed, and some that he doesn't need to change since he is already on the side of the establishment such as with trade and visas. But when I said that he will sell his soul to the most evil people, I was referring specifically to the Chicago thugs that he gave quarter to. Those wackos are the most vile people in this country. Can we agree on that? Ted Cruz tried to excuse their behavior in a typical political double-speak fashion where he said responsibility starts at the top - meaning Donald Trump. That gave the liberal media all they needed and ran with it. Cruz was just fine with their characterization that he was criticizing Trump more than the protestors. In other words, he was absolutely willing to align himself with the most vile people in this country to further his ambition for power.
