Ted Cruz Blows Wisconsin Momentum In Big Apple Blowout
The Daily Caller ^ | 04/20/2016 | MATT K. LEWIS

Jamie Weinstein makes the valid point that Donald Trump’s New York victory wasn’t a surprise. We all saw it was coming, and—in regards to predicting whether Trump can collect the 1,237 delegates he needs—the results were baked into the cake. States like Indiana and California are much more important, inasmuch as they are the known unknowns.

What I think is remarkable, however, is that Ted Cruz picked up zero delegates in the state, and actually performed much worse than John Kasich. This is not important in terms of mathematically stopping Trump (had Cruz picked up a dozen delegates and come in second, it likely wouldn’t have been dispositive). But it would have cemented Cruz’s position as the man to turn to should we get to Cleveland without a nominee.

Not at all. But they value the “party” more, and with exit polling showing 60-70% of voters saying whoever has the most delegates after the primary should be the nom, they won’t give it to a Kasich or another that hasnt run. It’s going to be Trump or Cruz and I think the closer Trump gets the better his chances the delegates give it to him on first ballot (if he doesn’t get the 1,237 - which I think he will). The party won’t say that and will make it look like there will be a “floor fight”, though.

Cruz didn’t blow anything. He was dead the moment his Pyrrhic victory in the Colorado Disaster became known. You can’t “blow” what you don’t have.
