Why is "surging" Ted Cruz running a distant third place, behind even John Kasich, throughout the Northeast?

You're surprised the only conservative running isn't doing in the northeast liberal stronghold of NY.?

Ted Cruz has lost. He will have been mathematically eliminated after the next Tuesday or two. His only hope was to get the nomination at a contested GOP convention, which would irreparably splinter the party, and guarantee a GOP defeat in November.

I think Trump has pretty much done that already; his personal attacks of candidates, his whining about the selection process (even though the process was known to all candidates), his boorish, crude behavior, his lack of substance on issues has given the Rats all the ammo they need to beat whoever is the Pub nominee.

The country is being conned, lied to, economically gang raped, Middle America has been left all but dead on the floor, a debt of death of trillions with lawless violent borders, but you don’t like Trumps tone? He’s crude?

People who make comments such this, are completely 100% detached from the real world.

[Trump's] lack of substance on issues

Trump has far more substance issue-wise than Ted Cruz. And far more leadership. Donald Trump is the presumptive GOP nominee.

And your comment about Democrats and Reagan is ludicrous. Are you trying to say that Ronald Reagan being a member of the same Democrat party as FDR is somehow better than today's Democrat party?

In any event, regarding lack of substance: Ted Cruz is the epitome of that. Over the last month, Ted Cruz hasn't been able to string together 2 sentences without turning it into a demonization of Donald Trump. No matter what question he is asked, he immediately attacks Trump.

Ted Cruz isn't talking about the issues at all, and he's afraid to even use the term "DC cartel" anymore (except for in his campaign lterature, of course) for fear of upsetting his GOPe benefactors.

LOL! I suppose the South must also be liberal, given how well Ted Cruz performed there!

Cruz is sitting at 25% in national polls. He's not aviable general election candidate.

And he has shown himself to be a naked, unprincipled opportunist who is perfectly content to carry the GOPe's water. Everyday Cruz looks more and more like part of te crooked Establishment which GOP voters are so sick of, and which he supposedly decried. Well, as soon as the going got tough, Cruz jumped right in bed with the GOPe.

Ted Cruz has lost. He will have been mathematically eliminated after the next Tuesday or two. His only hope was to get the nomination at a contested GOP convention, which would irreparably splinter the party, and guarantee a GOP defeat in November.

Simply put, that's not going to happen. Not even the crooked GOPe is that stupid.

Vote Trump
