I read where the Cruz campaign spent $2,500 to get the word out to Cruz voters to caucus in Wyoming (something like 18 delegates?). It doesn’t take much to get some volunteers a little organized and send out a few emails and a phone call to remind them how important it is to go to their caucus.

“The “true colors” of inspiring delegates to support him?”

What kind of dope would be “inspired” by Ted Cruz, unless they want to be a shiftless scumbag politician when they grow up.

“a career sham salesman, who has spent his entire lifetime, funding, canoodling and being complicit with, the very people that are destroying this country.”

A rare moment of truth these days...sadly, the Personality Cult of Trump wants nothing to do with truth.

Take your own advise Ted. Enough people hate you already. Don't make it any more.

Not to offend used cars salesmen, but Cruz would make a great one.

At the New Beginnings Church in Irving, Texas, in August 2012, Cruz (Rafael Bienvenido Cruz)
delivered a sermon where he described his son’s senatorial campaign as taking place within a context where Christian “kings” were anointed to preside over an “end-time transfer of wealth” from wicked people to the righteous. Cruz urged the congregation to “tithe mightily” to achieve that result.[26] During an interview conducted by the Christian Post in 2014, Cruz stated, “I think we cannot separate politics and religion; they are interrelated. They’ve always been interrelated.”[27] Salon described Cruz as a “Dominionist, devoted to a movement that finds in Genesis a mandate that ‘men of faith’ seize control of public institutions and govern by biblical principle.”[28]

Good explanation, but Trump supporters would rather remain ignorant and scream cheater than understand the process.

These stolen battles are what’s actually costing Cruz the war. The people are fed up with this nonsense.
Lying Ted will no doubt brag his ass off about his subterfuge and sneaky GOPe tactics but people will not be impressed and it will cost him Indiana as well as every other state where REAL AMERICANS actually vote.
Most politically tone deaf politician I’ve ever seen. It’s how he turned me from a supporter into a staunch opponent.. For life.

They rather push the lie about "stealing" delegates instead of promoting a slate of delegates to the pricinct caucus voters, and to the Maine convention goers.

From my quick look at Maine, over 2,000 people were elected at the local caucuses to go to the state convention to vote for the 23 actual people that will fill the 23 delegate SPOTS that are open. Based on the early voting, those SPOTS are in the 12,9,2 allocation on the first ballot. On the second ballot they can vote for whoever they want to.

It would seem obvious that the ratio of the 23 spots carries over to the 2000 people that will be electing the people to fill those spots. So if the majority of voters are Cruz people, then no doubt almost all of the 23 delegates will be Cruz supporters as well. (About 200 people will be at the convention hoping to get elected to one of the 23 spots).

That's so fascinating.

Meanwhile Ted Cruz is for religions freedom.

I’ve been saying for months that Cruz has psychological problems.

I realized it several weeks ago when he started losing delegates at the rate he was...He went off the edge...

Okay, I did read it. Now what?

I replied already, saying that good graft takes some advance time and hard work.

I could say Cruz is a piece of work. Would that help? .)
