“. . . but Neil Bush has just about clinched it for me.”

That is a HUGE problem for Cruz. He needs the support of people (GOP-e) he personally loathes, as do we. Their support forces some to go to Trump who might otherwise gravitate to Ted naturally. Yet, Cruz needs Rubio and Kasich out of the running to have a chance. The last thing he needs, though, is fodder for a conspiracy theories.

Additionally, let’s say Cruz defeats Trump fairly by getting enough delegates without backroom shenanigans, will Trump OK with that, or sabotage the whole deal, assuring Hillary her rightful place? Obviously some on this Board hate Ted and will never vote for him. But, others may be less vehement and be influenced by Trumps attitude.

Just musing.

Actually that's not called musing. Its called agitprop, and its a communist technique.

But thanks for playing.
