Ted Cruz needs over 80% of the available delegates. It appears we will have a contested convention. Hello mitt Romney and the GOPe. Ted Cruz? Forget about it

Ted Cruz needs over 80% of the available delegates.

He can get lots and lots of the delegates currently assigned to other non-Trump candidates.

[Nifster]

Nope even if Ted won every single delegate out there he could not get to the magic number.

So Cruisers are you going to call for Ted to drop out the way you called for Katich to drop out?

Or is Katich now useful to you so you want him to stay in.

For so called principled folks the Cruisers have interesting friends: Beck, Romney, Bush

It appears we will have a contested convention. Hello mitt Romney and the GOPe. Ted Cruz? Forget about it

And Ted Cruz will spend the rest of his life looking over his shoulder, fending off insults from passerbys, one of the most loathed men in America.

I have no problem with a contested convention as long as the republicans stand with the rules agreed to before the election and not attempt some dirty low down tricks 11th hour.

Cruz needs approx. 85% of remaining delegates, but during the convention, there will be quite a few unbound delegates. If Trump fails to win 1237, the balloting begins and Cruz could very well end up the nominee....based on the rules.

Trump is not guaranteed the nomination if he falls short. His lil whiny rear will then blow the whole thing up and run 3rd party. He’z gonna win and win big. In fact, he’z gonna win so much, even he’z gonna get tired of winning.

think it is obvious that cruz is the spoiler for the establishment and even the most ardent cruz voter can finally see that.

[DrewsMum]

They can’t put Mitt or anyone else in if it’s contested. That’s a myth. It has to be BROKERED.

Ted will lose. When did a true conservative win the White House?
