Cruz is just a tool of the GOPe. I thought he once was principled. sigh!
TED CRUZ: Yea, I think most people know exactly what New York values are. (Laughter)
If that nominee is Cruz, what will you do?
What does that have to do with whether or not Cruz can win?
Cruz can't win. He can only act as a spoiler. Does he want to have any influence at all? Then it's time to suspend and get behind the only candidate who can win.
You folks need to keep that little detail in mind while you do your fancy war dance:)
I was responding to a poster who claimed this election is all about TRUMP. I am pointing out that MOST primary voters didn’t vote for TRUMP so that assertion is false.
So now plagiarism is de rigueur too?
It was posted to you. You a dunce or something?
The New York Values comment was so long ago. I bet people from New York will have forgotten that long before they go to the polls. /s
NY Emerson LV 3/14-16
Trump 64
Cruz 12
Kasich 1
Ted is now seen by ALL appeasing his ambition and restoring the very Establishment he has feigned to deplore to do it.
Why did we even vote, pray tell?
It is so obvious, there is no other conclusion.UPdated delegate numbers.
http://www.thegreenpapers.com/P16/R
Trump won 37% of votes-7,548,429 and -> 696 delegates.
Cruz won 27% of votes- 5,484,494 and -> 424 delegates.
The race is >60% over. Remaining state delegates, only 906 are available as pledged (97 are softies- free agents) The goal is 1237 Hard pledged delegates.
Trump must win 59% or 541/906 delegates.
He has won 11 or 12 Majority delegations (Rule 40).
Trump can afford to lose 365 delegates.
Ted must win 90% or 813/906 delegates.
Ted must win 4 more Majority state delegations (Rule 40).
Ted can give up no more than 93 future delegates.
Given what we know, Trumps road to victory is quite possible and probable.
Teds path to winning is like that of a tight rope walker, but less fun to watch.
If Ted loses Arizona (WTA) with 58 delegates, then he must win 98% of the remaining delegates to make it to 1237.
You sure do your idol proud.
That’s a good question.
Think of it. Loving the US is considered terrorism. Wanting it to be great is anathema. Wanting it to be above other nations as exceptional is hateful.
I’m a Trump supporter. It’s odd that even HE gets the NWO.
Yes he is promising really bad things.
I. Cruz will elect Hillary, and with the fit he’s thrown may have already.
II. Cruz depending on the weight, influence and corruption of the Establishment RESTORES the Establishment.
I believe many conservatives see now that Emperor Cruz has no clothes, is exposed in his desperate dependence on the Establishment and will not vote for him.
Basically, he is a putz.
BTW you misspelled Mencius.
It’s a shame that after Tuesday, your savior will be mathematically eliminated.
Sorry, but no.
I liked Cruz, I was initially for him, but he’s more of a policy wonk. He’d be great at AG or even SCOTUS, but... Beck, Bush, Romney and now Lindsey?
As far as I’m concerned, Ted is racking up all the wrong friends.
I’m beginning to doubt if I want him as a plan B.
I’m not a purist, but am originally from NJ and teach people from MS how to properly shoot rifles. I am a vet and have vets up and down my lineage. I’m an American and Trump works for me.
