The same Newt Gingrich who won in 2012 and went on to be president?

Ted is mind numbingly stupid sometimes. It's political suicide. He actually tweeted this. It's as brain dead stupid as Obama's 57 states perfidy. As long as this is par for the coure yes Trump is on track to 1237;

65K Coloradans voted--they just voted against Trump. That's 11 elections in a row we've won.

Newt is 80/20 at best but he’s been right about Trump from the start. Love NY or hate it, its a huge state with lots of delgates. Any candidate who wants to be potus better do good in Texas,Calif,NY,Fla. and a few other key states or hang it up.Cruz is 50% at best.

I love Newt. He was my choice in 2012, but I hope to G*d he’s wrong on this one. 4 years of Hillary and the USSC lost for a generation is a pretty high price to pay for indulging a narcissist’s ego trip.

Yep, you can see that Trump is now putting together the A-Team for the stretch run. Attracting talent from Walker's campaign and known top notch insiders. Has to beat Cruz at his own game. He will. As he has said over and over again, he knows how to win.

Folks have accused him on Free Republic of "not knowing what he's doing." Oh you fools, he is such a quick study. When you do billion dollars deals, people like Cruz are total lightweights. Cruz, just like dems, overplayed his hand and revealed his dirty tricks. April is Cruz's demise, but he has neither the class or the dignity to admit this, so he'll go on believing Yeb and Reince. Oh well, he'll always have his job in the Senate. Well, ...maybe.

Gingrich understands that the media hyping a brokered convention is jus that, a bunch of hype. Trump will win on the first ballot and we will move on to the general election. Cruz will go back to is seat in the Senate and contemplate his navel and why his naked ambition once again left him with nothing. If he had played his cards right Cruz could be in the driver’s seat for VP or Scalia’s slot on the high court. Sometimes you can be too smart for your own good.

I am going to tell you something that most likely will make the Trump supporters heads explode. It you want to disagree, go ahead, but realize I am just passing on information.

Apparently the infamous Rule 40 requires that you win a majority of the delegates in 8 States. The way to prove this is by showing signed loyalty pledges from the delegates in 8 states. With all the “Trojan Horse” Cruz delegates, Trump might not be there yet. And some think if you are bound to the candidate on the first ballot you have to say you will support the candidate. But let's assume Trump gets there, and there is a second ballot. You have to reshow each time you have majority of delegates in 8 states. Trump would likely not be on the second ballot.

I also think he will get over 1,100 - it will be hard to deny him.
