For someone just passing by, they might not have even known a presidential candidate was in Downtown Fort Wayne...

“I guess I was just expecting to see some spillover, maybe people waiting to get in,” she said. “It seems to be pretty quiet...”

“I was surprised how few people there were,” Joseph Romary said.

Valerie Reynolds said she was surprised half the room was empty. It holds about 2,250 people.

“I mean it’s a big room,” she said...

That ring gaffe was a heavenly gift from above, tailored for Indiana. Our creator wants this over as much as we do.

>>I bet Ted Cruz couldn’t name 5 Rolling Stones songs<<

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Can any Cruz acolyte be a Stones fan? Seems doubtful.

Saw that. Even with Frank’s obvious plants, most of those Hoosiers sounded like they were moving in Trumps direction. I sincerely hope Trump reaches out to these folks in some meaningful way. I agree with your observation about Cruz or Kasich being able to beat HRC- everybody reasons differently, which is why I made the comment about Trump reaching out. Especially after he locks it up.

It seems like just yesterday when he had that big landslide win in Colorado.

Why yes, yes it does.

So just what is the latest on that big Colorado delegate do-over?

Since Bernie is down-sizing his staff, maybe Cruz can utilize his rent-a-crowd.

That is hilarious .... and spot on.

Lyin Ted will be lucky to get elected dog catcher, in TX. He’s a complete embarrassment. I say this as someone who worked to get him elected Senator :(

‘Does Ted go to the rally, set up camp and stay for a few days? Or does he hit the road and go to the next scheduled event?’

It would be hilarious to see Cruz asked to reel off his top fives Stones songs. However, your point above is even funnier. Clearly, Cruz doesn’t think these comments through before he goes on the record.

Well, if he doesn’t drop out soon he’ll likely be using the ladies room just in the hopes of finding a crowd.

That’s it? -- Yup

The upside is that everyone who wanted an autograph got one! lol

In a couple of photos on the link you offered where Cruz was speaking, they framed the picture with RUSTED behind Ted. First time I've seen that one! lol Poor tin man, he has no heart! Can anyone spare some oil? lol

What? No pancakes? No strawberries and whipped cream? No steak and potatoes?

Gee, Ted is slipping.

His whole marketing strategy has been built around those items.

That’s how he has gotten his biggest crowds...

Of course the folks at those restaurants only came out for him, even though he didn’t pre announce he would be there.

Hopefully I’ll be dead. If not I’ll be 96. I don’t want to know.
