That statement means his Cuban heritage is kicking in.
Cruz made that statement with religious zeal.
Another blog no one heard of before last week?
Crappy Cruz copulates rats, again.
Cruz has really gone completely, totally GOPe. He is manipulating the process to “win” by skewing the process.
He represents everything, about the GOP, which I have learned to despise.
Trump is the person who America needs as our president. He is winning in actually primaries, and has a LOT of supporters. Cruz has a machine. That is it.
The GOP is just not helpful. At all.
Good thing the writer of the story is unbiased.
I am no fan of either of these guys, but the writing out there these days is simply horrible.
All of the bloggers think they are Walter Winchell.
Wyoming Caucus process.
“Brief Civics Lesson in Delegate Selection
The Republican National Committee (RNC) has two jobs. First is to hold a convention, which nominates a presidential candidate. The second is to see to the election of that nominee. So: how does the Wyoming Republican Party select its delegates and alternates to that convention? No two states do it exactly the same way.
A delegate is entitled to vote and otherwise participate in the convention. If the delegate cannot do so, an alternate steps in. The RNC sets the size of each delegation, using a formula that rewards state parties for electing Republicans. In 2016, Wyoming is entitled to 29 delegates and 26 alternates.
Wyoming’s Delegate Selection Process
In all states, three delegates are automatic, the state party Chairman, the Republican National Committeewoman, and the Republican National Committeeman. They do not get any alternates.
County conventions (March 12) select another 12 delegates and their 12 alternates. In most cases, a county convention will elect either a delegate or an alternate to the Republican National Convention. For this purpose, the state’s 23 counties are divided into twelve delegate districts (with the county electing the delegate emphasized):
(1) Natrona-Albany;
(2) Carbon-Sweetwater;
(3) Lincoln-Uinta;
(4) Teton-Sublette;
(5) Park-Fremont;
(6) Hot Springs-Washakie;
(7) Sheridan-Big Horn;
(8) Campbell-Johnson;
(9) Crook-Weston;
(10) Converse-Niobrara;
(11) Platte-Goshen; and
(12) Laramie. Laramie County, being its own district, elects one of each.
The remaining delegates and alternates, if any, are selected at the state convention.
Wyoming is entitled to 29 delegates.
We have accounted for 15 of those, leaving 14 to elect at the state convention. The state convention will also elect 14 alternates.
Delegates and alternates are elected from one big slate, so those voting at the convention get to vote for up to 28 people.
The top 14 are the delegates. The bottom 14 are the alternates.
These are promoted to delegates in the order of their vote count.
So Who Elects These People?
The Chairman is elected to a two year term by the State Central Committee in the spring of odd numbered years. The National Committeeman and National Committeewoman are elected to four year terms at the state convention of presidential election years.
Delegates to the state convention are elected by the county conventions.
Delegates to the county convention are elected by precinct caucuses in their respective counties.
Any person registered to vote Republican as of the call for precinct caucuses in a given precinct may vote in that precinct’s caucus.

I’m somewhat surprised at the number of folks on FR who apparently didn’t understand some of the intricacies-and I’m being kind to the ignorant calling them that-of our many states nominating situations.
So was this written by a communist democrat or who? The elections in Colorado are caucus type as prescribed by law in the Colorado legislature. Over 60,000 republicans voted for delegates in the caucus. This is the same method used in Colorado since about 1912 except for 10 years but I guess no one on wants to hear the truth.
Last year I got heat for calling him the Republican Hillary. I rest my case.
yawn. more anti-Cruz propaganda at Trump Republic.
Deport the Sleazeball back to Canada.
Yep, the process is pretty messed up. Fact is, Trump, Cruz, Kasich all were informed well in advance of the rules each state hold.
These rules have been in place since last summer, but also in place for years with minor tweaks here and there.
Trumps lack of organizational structure in these states is what is to blame. He didn't have the personnel to win.
They all knew.
..... Well .... sounds like both frontrunners are saying outrageous things. I think that's outrageous.
I would so like to see Mr. Cruz lose every primary from here on out, by large numbers.
I would like to see him crash and burn, for his name to be synonymous with lying, cheating, crooked politicians forever.
I would like to see him be an object lesson to all future politicians as to what happens when you believe you can subvert the voters for personal power.
Cruz has always believed the ends justify the means, provided the end is his annointment as our leader, as prophesied by Daddy Cruz Sr.
