Forgive me , if I can’t follow your logic of blocking the top guy in the RNC Primaries and that some how translates to victory in 2016?

First the 1237 rule can easily be changed by the Republican Establishment.

Second, I don’t see how VOIDING the WILL the of the Republican voters will MAGICALLY translate into Republican Voters supporting the HIJACKING and the SELECTING the Establishment guy? What complete and utter nonsense!

I’m sorry but that sounds like Common Core math and WISHFUL THINKING at best.

First the 1237 rule can easily be changed by the Republican Establishment.

But it won't be changed; you should now that. The majority rules, a concept that has been in place since the first convention. Indeed, ever since the Declaration of Independence...

Second, I don’t see how VOIDING the WILL the of the Republican voters...

The will of Republican voters will not be expressed until one candidate achieves a majority. C'mon now, it's fatuous to assert that a mere plurality represents "the will of the voters".

If The Donald arrives at the convention with 1237 delegates in tow, you've got nothing to worry about. If he doesn't...

You are too kind, Enlightened. It is Magical Thinking at best, and psychotic at worst. Cruz is an Adult Child of Alcohlics. As such, one of his characteristics is that reality is not what’s real, it’s what Cruz says it is.

For example. Roger Stone is not currently employed by Trump. But Cruz says Stone IS at present on Trump’s payroll. Thus in Cruz’ mind, what he says becomes reality; Stone is a current Trump employee.

Cruz’ most devoted followers have adopted the same Magical/divorced-from-reality thinking. They fully believe Cruz will win on the second ballot and go on to win the general. It’s delusional. But for them, as for Cruz, it is reality.

It is said of a marriage involving one Adult Child of Alcoholics, ‘enough madness for two.’ In the primary it could be said, ‘Enough madness for all true Cruz believers...with plenty more to spare.’
